Hi Carolyn, Looks deceptively easy but my best score so far is a pathetic eight. Perhaps the "K Team" or the hibernating Paul will manage to improve on this. I'll keep plugging away but I'm not hopeful. Richard. |

Thank you Richard...... I am glad to know that I am not "loosing it" I agree that this looked like a cinch! Hope someone comes through with a hint for me because was on my best series EVER, over 800 games. I started another series but am keeping this one up, just in case. Carolyn |

Hi Jane, You've never posted a soft target yet. This is no exception. The Kings Only option makes progress very difficult, and when you clear a space, the kings are no use because you've covered the queens etc trying to do so. My best score is six. I did manage to get two columns clear simultaneously but when I put the kings into them there was nothing else playable. Sorry (so far), Richard. |

Thank you for trying. I really wanted this one as I was on my way to a high score of over 6,000 games. Seems like I can just get so far and either hit a wrong key and lose it or can't seem to get it to play. I certainly appreciate you trying. Jane |

Looks like we are both in a mess Jane. But I was only in the 800 game range. It would kill be to give up if I had as many games as you do. THANK YOU AGAIN Richard! |

Eight Off #1421728640 is another toughie I'm afraid. I can't get past six of a score, and I've spent quite some time at it. Sorry. |
