Fantastic mille game
The other night, while waiting for an interminable job to finish, I was wasting
time playing mille, the computerized version of Mille Bournes (sp?) on Unix.
Through a fortuitious set of draws, I was able to accomplish the following
set of feats:

Four safeties
Two Coups Fourres
All Four Safeties
Trip Completed
Safe Trip
Delayed Action
Shut-Out
Extension
--in other words, getting to 1000 without allowing the computer to play a
single milestone and without playing a 200 milestone myself, picking up
all four safeties along the way, and exhausting the deck before winning.
This game totals to 4000 out of a maximum of 4600 possible, failing only
by two coups fourres. Has anybody out there done as well? Better?
