    I haven't played it for some time. Used to be good at it though. My record is something like 137 straight wins in a row.

          I think I might have played Freecell about five or six times in my life ...

              Freecell was the game that turned a cheerful, optimistic little kid to the world-weary wreck that is now posting this message.

                In other news my mom's addiction to Freecell forced me to type a three-page paper in the library before class one time.

                  My wins have been stuck at 91% for years.
                  Here are some tricky games I've come across:
                  19013, 927, 22907, 29596, 20547, 322, 29564, 25375, 12469, 9123, 320, 3496.

                  Anyone got some other difficult games?

                    Seems like we enjoy all the same games, GP. Since I discovered freecell, I've probably spent more time on it than on bridge.
                    "THE" plus "IRS" makes "THEIRS". Coincidence? I think not.

                      Oh man! I keep playing Freecell while posting here and waiting for pages to load. I can't get a good score though.

                          It took me the longest time to finally win a game of Freecell.

                          I think I can even rememer the year, 1998 or 1999. Probably '99.

                              FreeCell is always solvable. At least no game is yet found to be unsolvable.
                              My personal objective these days is to solve the game with as few cards on the top right piles as possible. That is, find the column(s) where most aces/low cards are, do not deconstruct that column beyond a key card barring the low cards above. (Am I clear?) Use the other columns to build nice runs from king and down. Your final move is to move the barring card to one of the long columns and watch the top right piles fill up automatic.

                              It can in theory be done without placing a single ace, all 52 cards are automatically moved to top after moving that barring card.

                              Personal best is three cards up, two aces, one two (several times).
                              Usually, I end up in the range five to seven cards

                              too much time,
