ok, Mr. Pearce, i have nothing against you, i've enjoyed playing solytare
for both the 85 and 86, and they are both great versions. i just thought
if you took the time to make it use ALL of the screen, instead of
shrinking the cards, it would've been better. i do unsderstand why u have
the suit at the corner, though.
i apologize for the stinging nature of
the last email, but i was in a bad mood that day, and i shouldn't have
taken it out on you or your game. sorry.
maybe if you made it for Ccccc, the flicker would be less visible.
and to kill two birds with one stone---, Adamman-- are you going to add 2
player capability to SameGame (action mode, # of blocks cleared-1=# sent)?
that'd be pretty cool.
