Right now I am trying to get my scorecard to work for hangman. This is a game I can play as many times as I want and I want it to show my lowest score when I press 2 at the game menu. For some reason my logic isn't working. Can anyone help? I have attached the 3 sections of code necessary for this to work.
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>

ifstream wordIn; //file stream read in
wordIn.open("WordList.txt"); //list of words used in this game
//if (!wordIn.good()) { std::cerr << "open failed.\n"; exit(1); }
char letter; //letter guessed
int numWrongGuesses = 0; //counts the number of wrong guesses
string theWord;
string words[13];
int play = 0;
bool run = true;
int makeYourSelection = 0;
int bestScore = 11;
while (run == true)

// put a game menu to loop that asks if you want to keep playing or exit and go to scorecard
cout << " WELCOME TO THE GAME OF HANGMAN\n\n\n\n";

cout << " You have 10 attempts to guess the words before you get hung \n\n";
cin >> play;
while (play == 1)//loops while user has entered 1, 0 exits the game
{
for (int i = 0; i < 13; i++) //labeled 13 and not words because 13 is a constant
{
