Subject: Seldom won winnable games.

Got it in replay. 

         You Win

Game: 11x0 31820-5;.....  Game stats: 42/6/14.3%/1873;.....  Player Elo: xxxx ▲ 0.623.

Game: 9x2 19355-8;.....  Game stats: 4/2/50%/1652;.....  Player Elo: xxxxx ▲ 0.183.

Game: 9x2 16021-8;.....  Game stats: 20/4/20%/1789;.....  Player Elo: xxxxx ▲ 0.391.

Pretty tricky, with a rather elegant solution, as opposed to pungent.  But definitely needs to be moved up to about climate 9 or so:

Game: 8x2 22724-5;.....  Game stats: 57/7/12.3%/1925;.....  Player Elo: xxxx ▲ 0.857.

Game:6x4 31990-5;.....  Game stats: 94/8/8.5%/2022;.....  Player Elo: xxxx ▲ 1.382.

Game: 8x3 29515-10;.....  Game stats: 6/2/33.3%/1759;.....  Player Elo: xxxx ▲ 0.326.

22xx/587 is near four, which is quite good.

25xx/765...also good.

Game: 10x1 24437-7;.....  Game stats: 19/3/15.8%/1502;.....  Player Elo: xxxxx ▲ 0.076.

I thought that this game deserved an 'Elo' greater than '1502'!

Game: 6x4 22867-5;.....  Game stats: 58/4/6.9%/2026;.....  Player Elo: xxxx ▲ 1.376.

Game: 6x4 18303-5;.....  Game stats: 82/4/4.9%/2099;.....  Player Elo: xxxxx ▲ 1.838.

Toughie!

From the Monday 8x2 competition yesterday 

Ellie and Tony: Please don't bother going to all the trouble to hide your elo. I want to see it. Who cares what some troll thinks 💬 

@ outskirts:  I think some players thought we were boasting, or bragging, or something.

If you click on any players name on any game stats page, you can see their 'Elo' (5th item in the list).

You can then also see their 'Elo' history graph.

Since outskirts asked nicely, I will now leave my 'Elo' visible.  I'm hoping for 3000  but probably not this year).

Game: 6x7 1663-8;.....  Game stats: 10/3/30%/1691;.....  Player Elo: 2308.639 ▲ 0.223.

ain't worth spit.

Ellie2:  "I think some players thought we were boasting, or bragging, or something."

Duh.  There's really no other reasonable explanation.  So yeah, that's the whole point of what you (all?) do.  If not, as has been pointed out countless times, you'd play as anonymous.  And you (all?) have never responded to that point.  Never.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.  Self-aggrandizement - time after time.

What a good game to win!!  HORRAY for using cards!!

My Dad taught me at a young age to always "try to do my best"!

He also taught me not to worry too much about "what other people think"!

America even fought a Civil War because of what other people thought (and did)!

Fortunately, Freecell isn't THAT important.

Here is someone's assessment of the movie that contains the above picture which I meant to illustrate the hopelessness and futility of TN's efforts to control others with feeble mind control. The review is nearly as entertaining as the 40 year old pre-internet movie.

Here is what Freecell Land looks like to those of us who live there. By the way, I didn't hijack your thread. 😁

Thanks, outskirts.  I watched the whole 9+ minutes of the review.

I think I get that how people think (or fail to think) cannot be controlled.

Otoh, we have a multi-billion dollars advertising industry aimed at influencing peoples choices.

I don't really understand why so much $$ is spent trying to influence folks on what to brush their teeth with or with which tissue to wipe. I mean, really. 

By the way, Tuttle is Robert De Niro and Sam's mom is the ever lovely Katherine Helmond. 

By the way, I'm out of TP right now, and I've gone through all the kleenex. I'm using paper towels and need to make a store run. I will purchase the $1 packs.

here's a bone 

Hummm, this one didn't seem difficult, imo:

Game: 8x3 14622-10;.....  Game stats: 52/4/7.7%/2011;.....  Player Elo: 2309.615 ▲ 1.234.

This one was also not very difficult, imo:

Game: 8x3 16029-10;.....  Game stats: 30/5/16.7%/1908;.....  Player Elo: 2310.803 ▲ 0.721.

This one was much more difficult:

Game: 8x3 29122-10;.....  Game stats: 43/3/7%/2021;.....  Player Elo: 2312.082 ▲ 1.279.

You Win

Game: W9x2 13902-5

Game stats: 50/6/12%/1843

Player Elo: 1788.220 ▲ 4.736

I'll take it - all required cards, hearts and clubs aligned in the same column!

Could have got another streak of 2 in 8x0 but this game was a monster! Sixteen of the attempts are mine.

One of the most bizarre 7x3s I've seen! Got it in one.

Thanks for the reminder, I meant to try that 8x0 the other day but forgot. Took me a few mins before I realised which column could be cleared, and even after clearing two it's still possible to screw it up unless you're very careful. I'm glad you already had the 2 streak in the bag before this opportunity came along!

(Side note - I think I must be doing something wrong when selecting the game to play, as none of my four attempts added to the play total)

new feature... 'Not Scored' is not scored

I played under Not Scored first (an 8x4) then realised what I'd done, so quickly quit that game and changed to custom, but I thought custom games did add to the play totals.

Scoring and recording of custom games are currently not functioning. It's in the queue, but not high on the list. 

Is there a problem with Custom scoring? If you select "play for streak" and "random" and a difficulty level that's appropriate for your streak 5 + (streak / 10) it will score. Now if you fail to meet all the requirements for streak play it just silently fails which is not good. But one thing at a time...

Custom works fine in streak mode. Still getting the unadjusted low ELO's (as of yesterday) more often since custom levels tend to be played less.

Yeah fixing Elo is on my list. Hopefully times will get fixed tonight.

Thank you. Get some rest!

Intricate:

Not easy. Clearing a column is only half the fun!
