Benjiboo Nov 04, 2011	i was thinking that he would play an easy game and win but yay im the first one to comment!
zembobo Nov 18, 2011	Hehe. Good one. I guessed that he took them all on it a game other than soccer that he was really good at..like chess maybe
Marple Dec 22, 2011	Wow! That's definitely tricky!
wolfpackw2 Feb 27, 2012	He could play one on one against each of them (he didn't say against all of them at the same time). I'm sure he'd be able to beat at least one of them. No guarantees he can win at Free Cell.
rob77 Feb 27, 2012	Could be interpreted the way you said, playing them one at a time. Hadn't thought of that, so two answers. It's possible to win every Freecell game, at least the ones that comes with Windows. And if he has trouble winning Freecell, it didn't say he had to win the first game.
Quocalimar Jan 12, 2013	Sweet teaser i didn't get it. My guess was that he'd play goalie, and simply that hwas so good he didn;t have to try to hard to stop any ball from passing him, but i guess that wouldn't be very tricky now would it.
