This was fun! Such an adventure! I solved all three versions in the same file 🙂

  I looked for the highest scoring word based on the instructions, but it seems some users looked for the top 5 words per scenario

Solution attached... is it going to be suspicious if I pull out a laptop to play Scrabble in the future?

Here is my submission, create 3 batch macros for all 3 levels of challenges. I was trying to build a macro for 3 different scenarios and use the app to control that, but it seems a bit hard and take more time than I thought.

There have been some very difficult problems back to back, but I preferred this process over the Plinko Probabilities problem. Thank you to the individual who identified that the inclusion of blanks made things more difficult. I will say that my solution with no blank letters matched the given solution, but I would be interested to see if the other two solutions that include blank letters will be the same as those blanks overcomplicated things just a tad. I'm glad I'll have this macro though to play words with friends/online scrabble!

Definitely not the most efficient, it works is all I can say. With blanks, I modified original workflow a bit just to compensate the new points deduction.

The most I could come up with is 18 points for the blank and double blank. Workflow includes a check to make sure the count doesn't exceed the limit of letters available.
