I was able to solve the 8x4 version but can't see how to do it with 3FC.

Message:31730 is now 2/258. The solver hasn't come forward. I'd really like to know the solution.
I can now declare the 8x3 Level 7 Project complete. Thanx again to all who participated.
I've noticed that somebody else (not me!) has already begun playing through the 8x3 Level 8 deals. I have no intention of starting a new thread at this time. I waited 8 years to start the Level 7 Project, thinking that it would be faster if we waited until more deals had been attempted through streak or tournament play. However, if anyone wishes to start working on Level 8, feel free to join us, when you're not up for a streak or a tournament. Go to scores>>> game stats>>> 8x3 Level 8>>> then sort by win% to see the list of unsolved deals. I will start a thread once all deals have been attempted. That will probably take a couple of years.

could you do this, free? i wouldn't mind checking out some games, there's some hard core solvers here that like tackling the toughies.

Message:I know I should know this but...
who is The_Interpreter?
I thought I was going to figure it out from this thread but I was wrong. BuzzClick? Firenze? Snowguy? Someone else? They are also Titantic_Tonys_DeckofCards, yes?
Someone besides The_Interpreter please help. I know I will not get a straight answer from the "man" himself.

Message:James, TN once admitted to being "TitanicTonys_deckofcards".
I have long suspected that TN is also "The_Interpreter", but I don't have any real evidence.
TN might also be "The_Inquisitor" (not sure of the spelling)??
