Freecell's unbeatable game
Has anyone ever beaten game # 31465. I've never played a game I could not
beat but this may not be solvable as the game can't even beat itself by using hints. |

This game is doable. The only game that no one has succeeded in doing is
11982. "Uriel235" wrote in message ... Has anyone ever beaten game # 31465. I've never played a game I could not beat but this may not be solvable as the game can't even beat itself by using hints. |

After 5+ years of playing 10s of thousands of "FreeCell" games, I thought that they were all solvable. I was always able to figure out a solution eventually (several seemed nearly impossible and for some I needed several dozens tries to find a solution). However, I (and my friends) have been unable to find a solution to #11982. Thanks for telling us that this one may be the only unsolvable one. |

Freecell's unbeatable game
According to wikipedia's article FreeCell (Windows) there are 8 unsolvable
games. "Unsolvable combinations Out of the Microsoft Windows games, there are believed to be 8 which are unsolvable. They are games No. 11,982, No. 146,692, No. 186,216, No. 455,889, No. 495,505, No. 512,118, No. 517,776, and No. 781,948. This conclusion was arrived at by the consensus of several authors of FreeCell solvers. The solvers of both Danny A. Jones and Gary D. Campbell have been run through the first million FreeCell games and have found solutions to all but these eight. Several other solvers have also failed to produce solutions to these games."

Robert... what FreeCell game are you refering to? Windows FreeCell only has 32,000 games, and of those only game No. 11,982 is the ONLY unsolvable one.
