MAGISTER MUNDI SUM!

Bwahahahaha. I am the master of Spider Solitaire. In a heroic tale of the struggle against adversity (namely my mother telling me to get off the computer), my hard work, determination, and focus finally culminated, at 1:30 am on the night of the 20th, in victory. ("You won. Would you like to play again?" Hell no!) If anyone else has not yet conquered 4-suit Spider, I advise you to never give up. It only took me 82 tries.

wow. it seems to me that you could put your time and talents to a more productive use. take me for example. after finally getting sims2 for macs (yea!) i've had two alien babies, one death (pool), built 2 houses (one with a basement and a bridge), and had one marriage. see that productivity? jeez, dc. get a (virtual) life.

spider solitaire - i tried the 4 suit thing once and decided to move on. my new computer card game obsession - free cell. i am getting pretty good. but its sad how obsessed i am.... anyway
sims - i actually haven't played in about a month and a half. i don't know why, i just haven't. i think i may pick it up again sometime soon.... who knows.

Even more productive: GTA:San Andreas. Hell, I've conquered innumerable territories for the Grove Street Families, covered up 100 other gangs' tags with my own, earned thousands in revenues from my recently-accquired hotel and electronics shop, burgled millions from folks up in the Vinewood Hills/Mulholland area, and murdered thousands of drug dealers.

Spider Solitaire? What does that get you? A sense of self-worth? A sense of accomplishment? Psh. Who needs that when you could be killin' cops and pimpin' hos?

Also, while playing the Sims, it's always fun to have them go swimming... And take away the ladder from the pool.

...but I'm a bad person like that.

the pool is a classic killer. but i also like just building a wall around them. it's funny. i tried to kill a guy by flies, but it wouldn't work.

if you are going for the quick kill the pool is the answer - they die in a matter of hours (their time not ours), but if you want entertainment and you don't mind time-wise then you go for the wall thing. Or if you are daring you can go for the whole fireplace with the people boxed in by furniture so that they burn. hehe. ok i sound really creepy....

i love pool and freecell. but spider solitaire is like the easiest hting to beat. you must be missing a portion of your brain jax. no offense. and sims 2...well any sims game (i hae to brag that i have every single sims expansion pack ever made). but with freecell i was working on the freecell challenge for quite some time before me and my husband calculated that it would take my 555 years to finish every single freeceel game there is. i still work on it from time to time but ive accepted that il lnever finish.
