Alternative or Complementary methods
Use Scrabble Letter Tile Values Lookup: Scrabble tile totals depend on caller letter values and blank positions. A blank scores zero regardless of its displayed letter. For a complementary task, use Single-Elim Byes Next Power of Two: A single-elimination bracket can be padded to the next power of two. Byes reduce contested first-round matches, while every elimination requires a loss.
