I was playing against this "person", and they didn't actually play. No rerolls, and they took 0 for point in every possible score. they moved quicklytoo, it wasn't as though they were thinking about it. and no irregular pauses to move to click either.

There seems to be no place I can report this, and it wasn't available as a "report this concern", even though I did put a red thumbs down on them.[img]

As has been said before, why? Why would someone create a bot to play online? The usual complaint is the bot plays too well and is taking ranking spots that belong to real people, but in this case, I really do think the more likely scenario was the player didn't really want to play, so they just hit zero on everything instead of offering an abandon or quitting. And if it really was a bot, does it matter? Red thumb them and move on with your life. If they play like this with everyone, they soon won't have anyone to play with. And as it is, that player now appears to no longer have an account anyway. For whatever reason.
