Using the J tile

J scores 8 points before any board bonus. Short plays help when the board is crowded, while longer words can put the tile on a double-letter or triple-letter square.

The counts change with the dictionary selector because Collins accepts words that are not legal in North American tournament play. The score itself stays the same in both versions.

Put J in a known spot
