Time to fill in the "Hall of fame" section to the Solitaire cart.

There is 6 different "Hall of fame" screens (Klondike, Klondike 3, Freecell, Spider easy, Spider medium, Spider hard).

The higher score the better game.

The game binary is here:  solitaire-2009-08-27.zip   155.39K   148 downloads

You can play this game on a real Lynx using the flash cart, burn it on a 256k EPROM or just play it in Handy.

High scores can be posted to the thread like this:


The best players and high scores will be programmed into the binary that is released on Tuesday 1st of September, 2009.

Enjoy, and may luck be with you.

I'm playing on real hardware, so these pictures are not good...



Klondike - That's Smeg at 517. I am also Randy at 508.



Klondike three - Randy at 684.



Spider Easy - Smeg at 133.

If you only want me under one name for the high scores, please use Smeg.

Cheers,
Randy
I mean Smeg

I'll keep trying for better scores. But here at least one for Klondike (Not Klondike 3):
(Probably one of the best games of Solitaire I have ever had!)



(Thanks for adding the extra letter for the High Score names! I like seeing my full Middle name there!)

Great idea this competition Karri it allowed me to begin really to play your game and I like it!
First time I found the graphics ugly but by playing a little things becomes much easier and I really take some pleasure to play with this cartridge now.
And the jukebox what really excellent idea! You are really a big programmer!

Here is my small contribution to the high score:
(The spider hard is really too hard even on that of window I have never managed to make it)







About spider medium i have make a strange score : 1 ? I don't now if it is normal.




And i love that :

Thank you for the nice comments Rygar.

Your score of 1 is not normal. I found a bug in the scoring logic. It is fixed in this release.

Thank you for playing Solitaire.

The final Hall of fame is here!








Or if you still want to enter to the hall of fame I just might squeeze in your results later tonight
The deadline of Solitaire is 1st of September (New Zealand time +12 UTC). So we got about 4 hours 30 minutes to go.

My score for Spider Easy is so pitiful. LOL
I just learned to play it last night. But it was fun!

I tried to catch Rygar's score in Klondike last night. I just could not top it. I should have played Klondike 3 more to get a better score. I did play it for 2 straight days and only beat it once (which is my score). And then I tried spider for about 5 hands last night. I wasn't all that great at that game.

That was lots of fun!
Now... where's Rygar's tourney for the special games?

[Ninjabba]

I honestly thought I suck hard at those games... took me days as well to finish a game of klondike 3. But surely enjoyed playing those games! If only I could beat the other ones... one day maybe.. one day..

[Tom-Lynx]

Is there another area with the running high scores for all 6 games summarized? I'm new to the HSC area.

Thank you.

[EricDeLee]

Right now... I think you just go to the most current High Score thread (Rampage is the current one).
It should tell you the scores and running totals. We are only 2 weeks into this.

[Tom-Lynx]

I meant specifically for Solitaire...there are screen shots posted but you have to sift through them all for each of the 6 card games.

[EricDeLee]

Oh... I'm not sure. LOL
