Windows Spider - Nonstop gaming


Generally I don't play computer games but somehow I got addicted to Windows® Spider - card game, just finished 1000 wins at 40% success rate.


Losing 12 games in a streak is very simple as you just have to keep losing but winning 8 games in a streak is never an easy job. I am glad I did it.

39% success, that is the lowest score so far. I don't think I will let it go below that as I am becoming an expert.



Sometimes it really tests your patience, 4325 moves, surely more than an hour, I won't think of doing that again.



You know, I play only "Difficulty: Four suits".



It takes about an hour to finish four games and I have played over 2500 games, the realization hurts - the amount of time I have spent, especially after following lots of time management techniques.

As long as we believe in science, we can truly appreciate our power and the things we have achieved. The oldest of the power struggles can be the one between men and women. It is perhaps so subtle that we can’t even call it a power struggle. While we manage to fight against external things, this is something happening in our own race, and we haven’t had an answer yet. A coffee selling 10 times costlier than the price of it in a decade ago may mean the coffee price has been raised. But when you compare it with the price of everything, it is relatively the same.
