I just bought this and im having trouble with the scoring. do I just configure the board it says repeatedly until the session is over? ie: arrange my board like it says then complete those pieces and repeat?
edit: I understand how to use it but am only achieving goods at best.Last edited by ovechkin; 07-01-2020, 04:21 AM.

What experience/standing are you currently on? If my understanding of the puzzle in its current state is correct, you're going to have to stack a lot of these goods/excellents to move up in standings. A couple sessions just won't cut it. In addition, the puzzle is RNG af, so you're going to have to learn to look at boards and see if its good or bad to achieve maximum scoring.
The way to really pimp out your score is stacking Vegas^n right when the water starts rising quickly; the more gold pieces there are on the board = the more likely you'll be able to do so. Additional gold pieces will only start appearing as you consistently do well in the puzzle; once you start having 4-5 of them on the board an Exc-Inc on SW with Argos should not be a problem.
Strategy in terms of gameplay when you can move the pieces should go as follows:
1) Search for a good board at the beginning of the puzzle when you start spawning gold pieces. Scores don't count until the first couple inputs of the puzzle.
2) Don't put in every piece you see- there's strategy to this as well. What I personally do is start off with a 3 or two, then start putting in 4s followed by 5s I've noticed that I've been able to extend my combo to Vegas^2+ this way on a good board early-midway through the puzzle because of 3-piece combinations being available on the board much more frequently. (Also due to more gold pieces + considering how the score multiplier works for SW combos)
If you're truly following all of these strategies and still capping at Good, then I suspect it might be a hardware issue. But the way I've seen the bot on auto (on a very low-resource Win7 VM), it gets excellent/incredible on my labor alts even on the early stages with one 5-piece + 1-2 gold pieces.Merry Christmas, Mr.Lawrence
