there's no King of diamonds and no 5 of diamonds or 5 of clubs. no way to finish the game! :confused:

It is game 9946387 if anyone wants to try it... I'm gonna leave it on this screen for a while before i try to restart the game... :protest:

I just tried starting that game and there are there at the beginning. Maybe a glitch during gameplay?

some freecell games are impossible... I think there are about 5 or six of them... I don't know if that's what's going on there, but if you know the game number you should be able to figure it out.

One thing I noticed is that (and I assume this has something to do with having FreeCell cooked into ROM instead of being installed afterward) the statistics aren't exactly accurate. If you are in the middle of a game and close FreeCell, it's like that game never existed... when in fact it should show up as a loss. The only way a loss shows up is if you actually lose a game (no more available moves) or if you start a new game before you finish the current one.

Odd little quirk... no big deal, but it's there. Taking advantage of this quirk, however... I'm 28 and 0 since I upgraded to WM6 ;)

yeah, when i restarted the game i was able to finish it... oddly enough though, i tried putting the same number in my desktop computer and it just pops the select game dialog box again, even though the number is within the range of 'valid' games. odd, eh?
