What's your high score on the free games that came with Windows?
You know... Minesweeper, Spider Solitaire, Pinball, Freecell, etc...
I recently lost all my high scores and was wondering how they would've ranked. I currently have 1203 on Spider Solitaire (easy). I'm kinda on a mission to see what the least amount of moves is. I've been consistantly getting under 100 moves.
insomnia is fun.

they moved this to Video Game talk? These arent really video games at all...

I had some insane score on pinball once, but that was many computers ago.

They're games.. that you play on a video monitor.
Jesus, just because you can't kidney punch a hooker it's no longer a video game.

This is like discussing whether or not curling is a sport... this topic belongs in Other the same way all those threads about little online flash games belong there instead of here. It's something people do at work besides post to Other - they play flash games and solitaire and whatnot. It doesn't matter anyway... but if you have nothing constructive to add to the thread, then don't visit.
Oh - and I just got 1206 (94 moves) on Spider Solitaire.

As far as what's "constructive to add to the thread," the "grumble grumble mods" bit could've been handled over e-mail as well. I don't think "they're not video games" can be relevant at the same time as "they are video games" can be irrelevant.

Freecell people are fanatical. I saw where they actually farmed out all 32,000 combinations out to people to solve, and found out that exactly two games are unsolvable.
