by Red WolfSpike almost ripped the office door off its hinges as her responded to Dawn's scream. He was more than a little baffled to find the office free from intruders and Dawn doing a happy dance at her desk.
Rachel rolled her eyes at Spike's confusion. "Dawn finally won a game of Solitaire." She pointedly ignored Dawn's chorus of
We Are the Champions.
"All this over a card game against a computer?" Spike didn't look any more enlightened.
Rachel grinned. "It's quite addictive, but I'd be more impressed if I didn't know she just wangled the cheat codes out of Andrew."

Winning from a cheat is never as satisfying in the long run. ^_^ — via LiveJournal

You can't always get it out with the cheat anyway — via LiveJournal

Cheat codes for Solitaire? That's sad... — via LiveJournal

I know, but... cheating on Solitaire. It just doesn't seem right, somehow. Maybe Dawn's a little too other-side-of-the-brain for that game — via LiveJournal

I didn't say she did cheat, just that she had the means and Rachel assumes she did — via LiveJournal

Good point... one shouldn't assume — via LiveJournal

Oh, that was a hoot!
Do we get a drabble on how exactly she wangled the codes? — via LiveJournal — posted by spuffyduds at 09.10.2007 17:41 AEST |

Asked nicely? Caught him using them? Bribed him with little plastic men? — via LiveJournal

Spider Solitaire is even more addictive. Stupid card games eat my time — via LiveJournal

At first I wondered how anyone even could lose at Solitaire enough to bother making cheat sheets in the first place, but then I went a played a few hands. Lost the first four; one game after only turning three cards! To be honest, I never really realised there was a strategy to Solitaire at all, but I was obviously rusty.
Of course, I won the next few rounds in ever increasing speeds until I was back to completing the game in under 100 seconds and I felt better. ;)

The cheat has always been there. I think the programmer added it for testing purposes. If you hold down Shift+Ctrl+Alt and click to deal, it will deal single cards instead of three — via LiveJournal

Thank you for writing that — I needed a laugh today.
And wow, that's some bad luck at computer Solitaire. Is it natural, or does the computer dislike Dawn for some reason? — via LiveJournal — posted by Elizabeth Culmer at 09.10.2007 17:46 AEST |

Probably just distraction and not really investing enough concentration on the game. Or she's just found where it hides in the menu, which is a good possibility if someone like me has ever been near her computer and rearranged the menu — via LiveJournal

Heeee! I like the twist on the
first time, very creative :) Can only imagine the torture techniques used on Andrew though ;) — via LiveJournal — posted by lillianmorgan at 09.10.2007 17:47 AEST |
I expect that Andrew is easily bribed — via LiveJournal
