FreeCell Game #1941

[Tig]

I found a way to "win" any freecall game if you want your stats to be clean.
"If you press Ctrl+Alt+F10 for any FreeCell game, you get the User-Friend User Interface dialog box. Click the Abort button to win the game; return to FreeCell and move any single card and — ta da! — you've won!"
Unsolvable games are listed in Wikipedia. There are solutions listed for games one and two on the web but I have not tried them.

I just tried this on the Vista version and got zip, nada!

Neither did Ctrl-Shift-F10.

I don't believe that this would be called "winning".

Games #1 and #2 are easy to win. It's games #-1 and #-2 that are impossible.

How about that frog jumping game I got in an e-mail last night. There's 6 frogs and you're supposed to swap their positions in the pond. I can't do it. It says it's a computer test for 2nd graders in China. Frog Leap Test

Have any of you beat this one? I've tried off and on all day with no luck. I don't want to know how to beat it, just is it beatable. If it is, I'll keep trying

Took me about 20-30 tries. Yikes! That was a tough one.

Got it first try.

In all fairness, as kid I was sick a lot and had about a bazillion board games with plenty of time to figure them out. One was a very similar jumping peg and hole game.

Me too got it on the first try in pehaps 20 to 30 seconds. I guess some people just have the knack for this kind of usless talent To bad you can't earn money jumping frogs around, ha-ha

You can. It's called upper level management!

LOL That's a good one. You must work where I work Moss.

In all reality, I am very fortunate in that my supervisor is not a frog jumper. I've met a few over the years, though.
