I suspect I'm more welcome by some, than by others.

Actually, I was trying to suggest in addition to the above scoring, add bonus
points for stacking like colors together.
So, if you stack three blocks, 1 black, 1 white, and another black, you get 3
points. If you have 2 white, and 1 black (or 2 black & 1 white) you get 3+1=4
points. If you have 3 of either color, you get 3+2=5 points.
The idea is to encourage sorting. But, with this, the highest stack will still
win. If two stacks are the same height, the better sorted will win.
