I feel like this is really ugly code, and I'd be happy to have someone look at this and give me tips: https://www.refheap.com/d9418416ff7a30e9668721c9e

I would start pulling the values in the let binding out as functions

replace both maps in the let bindings with a for

the maps with the #() literals

sort-by + last is really bad, I would at least change those to something like

(first (sort-by (comp - :points) ...))

really bad time-wise? there's at most 4 players

last is linear time

I mean, I guess for 4 players it doesn't really matter, but it seems l ike a bad habbit

I mean I'd definitely be giving it more thought than just using last if it were a list of anything more than 4

thanks for the tips @hiredman, it looks a lot better

I should stop trying to shove everything into let
