Hi Larry,
I've not played Eighty Thieves for ages, and the only game I've won is 908933057, although my stats show I've won it three times, all months apart, just to prove it wasn't a fluke.
Had a couple of quick shots at your new number, and got 131 followed by 141. Please don't post your solution for a week or so, so that we can all have a decent crack at it.
Congratulations for winning with your new game. Don't think that many people (including myself) have two genuine wins. Well done. |

It's taken me an hour or two Larry, but I got there eventually. Was beginning to think I'd never get rid of all those clubs. Have saved my win too, so it will be nice to compare our tactics when you post your own solution. Thanks again. |

Richard,
Here is my solution for # 1771459839. I don't think I have solved # 908933057 on my own, so in thievery terms, # 908933057 is like trying to rob Fort Knox (An American site for storing gold) and # 1771459839 is like taking candy from a baby. |

Thanks for your solution Larry. Attaching mine. It took James Bond and "Pussy Galore" to prevent Fort Knox from glowing in the dark, but it wasn't exactly like taking candy from a baby. Nor is # 1771459839. If you can solve that, you can solve the other one too. Well done. |

Please keep posting solution - it keeps me trying to win games.
But do you really think us brits don't know what Fort Knox is - and any way we can cope with a few unknown cultural references - I got all the way through the Little House books as a child without understanding what most of the food was ! |
