I have one where I'm sure Maven would blow it. Maven maximizes spread. Not play a perfect endgame. Anyone who reads the Scrabble News knows it. You have to use the simmable Maven for the so-called perfect endgame, and even then it screws up. If anyone wants to see it, just e-mail me for one. I have one I'm sure Maven will screw up; our Maven that is. And indeed I have seen it screw up. Maven's midgame is, btw, almost flawless.
