I have a collection of about 20 that I play "in rotation" every day. The top five are: Geoffrey, Limited, Big Forty, Zerline, Algerian Patience, and Raw Prawn.
The remaining 15 are equally mixed in type/difficulty. |

My 5 most played are Penguin, Parallels, Maze, Ukrainian, and Fair Lucy. Penguin, because of seeing how many I can win in a row (425 so far); Parallels, because it's fun; Maze, because I wanted to see whether it could always be won (after 107, no losses); and Fair Lucy, trying to get the highest score, till folks started to post 100%. |

1b) FreeCell (PGS)
2) Free Fan (PGS)

For breadth, I have played every single game in PGS, PGMJ, MPS, Action Solitaire, and Pretty Good Solitaire Mac Edition.

Shucks, I'd have thought you'd have HAD to play them all, as a developer. <grin>
My own top five are pretty much easy-win games:
1) Thumb and Pouch
2) Lady Cadogan
3) Simplex
4) Alternation
5) Quadruple Klondike |

True, although I was actually just counting the games I played after the programs were done and shipped. I always have two players, one called 'test' for development, and 'Gregg' that I use when playing for enjoyment.
Playing all 700 games in Pretty Good Solitaire was entirely by choice. I am like that.

Mike, You scared me there for a minute. I thought you were saying that Alternations was an easy game. Last time I checked the stats I was the third winningest player for Alternations (not Alternation) with a whopping win percentage of 11%. Ken |

Ken, I know the two have very similar names but are much different in difficulty, and when I posted I was thinking seriously of adding something like "(NOT Alternations)" to clarify. |

Ken, my new stats for AlternationS is played 2, won 1. (784269952). First time I've played it on this PC. Thanks for the mind jog. Thanks too for a new word for my vocabulary; winningest. Surely that should be win-in-jest. |

Richard, I've been so close on this # now for three days that I THINK I can win it, but cogito ergo NOT sum on this one. Any hints? |

The first significant move was to put the 4D up early in the game, allowing the 4H to be moved.
At 6/44/4 I cleared column 3. Foundations 4D,AC,AH. Columns (lowest only) 2D,10S,00,7D,JC,5H,2S. Now I played the red nine from column 4 onto the 10 in col 2. I now moved col 1 into the space. Put up your 3S, but not the 4 from the pack. It goes on col 2, allowing col 7 to move. Move the 9H column. Clear col 1. Cards from col 4 into that space, then clear col 6. (13/33/10). I played the 5S from the stock into this space. Let me know if this lets you win it.
I won 200236321 and 74967785 after that. I won't insult your intelligence by saying I had no losers. Played 16, won 3. I must have had other winners on the old PC but it's a hassle just to get it to boot. |

I'm absolutely suspended from 'suspenseful'/. Can't even get it started. However does one get a card to the X square. Audrey |
