[bridge] Yesterday I finished off and uploaded the updated version of the Crossword Game's AI engine. (It was much better) [verse] The AI Engine should now be much more sensible in its choice of words. (It should choose them better) [verse] It will still occasionally open the big complete word list to pluck the words it uses from, but for the most part (most part) the words oughta be more "normal" words like "Zygotes" and "Quarterly", rather than being more crazy off-the-wall words [bridge] "Zwitterion" and "Qinghaosus", both of which are technically words that you can play in Scrabble.. but.. [interlude] Come on, though!!! [verse] So that's been uploaded. I'm not sure it's 100% Feels like I need to maybe give it a bit more time To make a list of better scoring words or something. Not sure. [interlude] [chorus] It's quite a decent player, now, and will only pluck out hardcore words when it can't come up with anything better. (There's nothing better) [interlude] [chorus] It's quite a decent player, now, and will only pluck out hardcore words when it can't come up with anything better. (There's nothing better)
