Solitaire - high score thread

[Guest Jamma14]

No matter how much I try, I always end up going back to solitaire and jawbreaker when I'm bored, poor form I know. :roll: :D

Anyway I was always annoyed that there was no high score save in solitaire as it kinda made the whole thing a bit pointless (I kept playing anyway ;) ).

Soo...I kinda remembered my highest score and I recently got 725 which beat it - so I took a screen, and it is still my highest so far.

So with that Jawbreaker thread going around, I thought I'd break out a solitaire one... what are you guy's top scores??

I remember getting higher than 725 a few times. unfortunately, I don't know how to capture screen on the phone.

And yes, I too go back to solitair and jawbreaker.

I've never taken much notice of the scores but will do so from now on.

I'd have more time to practice if I didn't have to keep moving threads out of the Main section... ;)

Sorry Stu - I did read your sticky! :D

Just I was pretty sure the jawbreaker highscore thread was in the main section so I thought I'd put this there too. :oops:

I've been playing solitaire a lot recently, just to go back to the oldies, and I'm a bit worried that my phone might be possessed. Look at the score I keep getting.

Haha, maybe it is. :twisted:

Yeh I watched a program about the curse that plagued the film makers of "the omen", anyone watch it?

Anyway it was interesting to find out that in Hebrew (I think, a language like that ;) ) that each number has a letter (or something). Anyway...666=www. The web is the tool of the devil! :twisted:

Just teasing :D

I was under the impression that the lower the score, the better :?:

Could someone please give me a brief rundown of how scoring works on this game.

You gain points for stacking cards on the suite piles, you lose points each time you cycle through your hand of cards. You also lose points ever 30 seconds i think?

[Guest Jamma14]

Point scoring:

Every ten seconds that pass: -2

Every round of cards you go through (apart from the two first rounds you get without point loss): -20

Every card transferred to another on the bottom (You don't get points for transferring back an forth obviously, only for first transfer): +5

Every card transferred to the top row: +15

Note: You can't go below zero
