No thanks Teddy, I don't need it. :D


> well my missus is a freecell legend and she just tried that game and cant manage it...........hell I"ve seen her play it heaps and so faaaasssstttt...........but that one got her stuck

Yes, that is why I asked if Teddy had completed it. :D

I actually conquered it a few weeks ago after quite a few attempts and a huge amount of determination. The incentive to crack that game without cheating came from one of our quieter forum members (thank you :-)) who had kindly sent me a walk-through but I was rapt when I won without needing to resort to it. B-)

185760 2003-10-26 04:37:00 lmao, well done Susan. I didn't know these primitive games were so popular - I thought you only play them on work pc's when your boss aint lookin (because you're not allowed to install anything else) :p PoWa (203)

Play it and find out for yourself. :-)

It is rather addictive once you get going, so be warned...... :p


> lmao, well done Susan.

Thank you. :-)

About time you got yourself addicted then. :D

185762 2003-10-26 06:17:00 Holy smokes, does this mean you've done from #1 - 617? You are addicted :-) Until reading this I didnt know there were set games - I thought everything wascompletely random and never really noticed the game # as meaning anything. You learn something every day. parry (27)

I used to play half a dozen games every night (prior to all-you-can-eat internet :D) before putting the computer to bed but now only manage the occasional game. Have actually done quite a bit more than 617 as that one got put in the "too hard" basket, so the actual tally is somewhere over 800 games. Not sure of the exact number as I have mislaid the figure.

185764 2003-10-26 07:55:00 800, awesome effort! I think I dismissed this game too lightly and probably gave up on hands thinking it was impossible to finish. There seems to be a bit more depth with this than I thought. parry (27)

That's one way of not calling someone boisterous. (Gives Susan a gentle smile :), instead of a loud guffaw :D )

Parry. Here are a couple of web sites about the freecell game. They were posted on Press F1 early last year. I found them interesting, especially the fact that game11982 is the only unsolvable game in the first 32000 games.

Hi jockT

I'm sure Susan won't mind my butting in here. :)

Did you crack #617 on your first attempt, or was it after a few previous tries that you finally succeeded for the first time?

Either way you did well, but especially so if it was your first attempt. Congratulations!. I sure lost some sleep over it before I finally managed to do it.

Re game 1941, your comment intrigued me so I just had to give it a go. I tried it about six times tonight and could hardly believe my eyes when I actually managed to complete it successfully.

Cheers,
exLL :)
