DeScramble – Video Demo
November 13th, 2008
In my previous DeScramble post I did an overview of the program’s UI. Now it’s time to see a video of the program in action!
However, I want to make a few things clear before you watch the video below.
- I have never used this program in any Scramble Live game with the exception of Cheater’s Ball. All the regulars in Cheater’s Ball know I have this program and have seen it in action.
- I have never used this program in any Scramble match. Just look at my record and that becomes obvious. Plus, all the people I play matches with know I have the program so it wouldn’t really fool anyone. Besides, actually playing the game with people is more fun.
- I wrote the program because it was an interesting challenge to me – My goal was not to make people think I am a better Scramble player than I am.
- After writing this program and watching it run against some of the better players in the game I have a whole new respect for how good those people really are. The speed at which they are able to find words on the board and enter them in is amazing!
So with that said, here is a short demo of DeScramble in action:

Hey RayBot! It was fun to watch your video. I wish I could clean my house that fast! Stop by Cheater’s Ball anytime!!

Okay… so where will I be able to download the software? I need it badly
Do you have a write up of the code? Does it use ocr? Love it.
