Introduction to The Crown Counter

The Crown Counter is a specialized tool designed to manage and display scores for the card game Five Crowns. It's created to streamline the scorekeeping process, making it easier for players to track their progress through the game's 11 rounds. The Crown Counter distinguishes itself by automatically managing the complex scoring system of Five Crowns, where each round's wild cards change based on the current round (e.g., 3s are wild in the first round, 4s in the second, and so on, up to Kings). The system ensures that all players' scores are accurately recorded and displayed in a formatted table, updating after each round to reflect the latest scores. For example, if there are four players and scores have been recorded for three, The Crown Counter automatically assigns a score of 0 to the fourth player, under the assumption they've 'Gone Out' first.
