Very difficult one Kathy. Not sure if it's winnable or not. I finally got to a score of 30. Will try again later. Have to go out soon. |

Richard is on the way and i don't have that game in PGSME. The others? I don't know if they try or not, but i think, they know the forum enough, that they will find your problem.
But i think, you have to wait till Richard is back. |

Now it's 371087644. I almost had it won. I still think it's possible, but I have to go to the senior center soon. Maybe if you can't get to it, I'll try later. |

Is Squadron 371087682 winnable. I hope so. I've got a great winning streak here.
BTW, I've flown 12 times and hated every minute of every flight. I must be superstitous because I'm never going on my 13th flight. |

You didn't give me a chance, Richard, to show I was a valuable member of this forum and not just another pretty face. I guess I'll have to go and join the Pussycat Dolls. They could use some variety. To me, they all look alike. |

It was over 4 hours before I even saw it Kathy. You guys are on the same continent. I forgot to save it. You can still post a solution for Ken.
re the Pussycat Dolls all looking the same...... your eyesight is worse that I thought. My new glasses are working a treat.

Because I'm just playing old favorites now just for fun, but I need a challenging game to go with them, and everyone I've looked at so far, I don't like. A couple I might like I can't play because I can't change the size of the cards from small to medium. |

Because I'm also competitive, and I'm 4th from the top in scoring, and knowing I can't get my score any higher does take some of the fun out of playing. I hate to admit it, but part of the fun of playing PGS for me is to see how high I can get in the scoring. In the old favorites I'm still playing, I've still got 100% but there are many more players ahead of me which is why I keep playing them. |

Here is your solution if you still want it Ken.
You've confused me again Kathy. Either you are "just playing old favorites now just for fun" or you are competing in the stats. If the latter is the case then how do you know which of the players above you is doing so honestly? What's the point? |

I don't want to confuse you, Richard. For example. One of my favorite games is Buffalo Bill. I've got a winning score of 468, and there are people with scores in the thousands ahead of me. Since I like to play it, I want to see how high a score I can get. If I find a game I'm good at but don't like as much, I quit after 50 wins and no losses. By now, I can usually spot the cheaters. They are usually the same people, and so I ignore their stats but still want to see how high I can score. The point is I like to play games that interest me and that I can attempt to get a high a score as possible. Just the way I like to play. Fun and competition combined. |

Is perchance Squadron 111301842 winnable? Don't give me the solution if it is though.
I thought no one was on the forum today. It has been sweltering here in the 90's all week, and I have to go out with the "lady from hell" to church in a couple of hours. Between her and the heat, I don't know if I'll be back! Wish me luck. |
