...and if charger09 posts 780, I want a video of it or a list of the moves once the week is over. I still find that 980 extremely suspicious.

[Flignats]

Has she responded to anyone at all? If you guys knew her game play activity you wouldn't be so suspicious, she has a pretty large history of activity and by its nature alone validates itself. Kind of cryptic, but I can't reveal personal things, of course.

[msufan]

wow... this thing has jumped from 22 plays to 57 plays in an hour... I think charger is playing every possible scenario

between what you wrote and the way this tournament is growing in plays by the minute (make it 58 plays... now 59), I am getting less skeptical about charger09.

[msufan]

if there is any possible way to beat 760, it will be found... now 60 plays and counting... gaining a play a minute

[msufan]

63 and counting... are two people playing or what? this is insane!!

BRING IT ON!!!

[msufan]

we have hit a lull at 63 plays... and the good guys are still winning

[Flignats]

Yeah, but she is a pretty well communicating member so she should get hooked up with you guys through messages - she enjoys the games so I don't see why she wouldn't respond

BRING IT ON!!!

here we go + vote for the topic =)

I've noticed the other weeks aswell, that charger puts alot effort into playing, especially in solitaire. Thus she enjoys playing I hope.
But I doubt you can go through all possible plays, 3card-solitaire has unbelievable many possibilities. Even though this week is a very limited layout, you'll find way over 100 different ways of play.

yet I haven't got a msg back from her, so those 980 keeps bothering me aswell.
Flignats do you know how to get 980 on last weeks layout? (yes or no). If not how can you be certain it's valid?
Please don't let this discussion run into some general "how to validate games". You have to agree that those 3card-solitaire games, especially those which are unsolvable, are kinda unique. In particular due to it's finite possibilities there exists at least one optimal play, thus a highest possible score. Scores can be easy validated by showing the way it was played.

Due to this "easiness" of proof, I can understand why players have doubts, in scores they didn't archive especially if you invest alot time and plays into a certain layout.
