I’ve been playing [Bejeweled 2](http://zone.msn.com/en/bejeweled2/default.htm) lately at work. I’m new to this new version of it, my scores so far… > [@](#): > > You did not beat your Best Score of: 194,700 > > Great job! You beat your Average Score of: > You did not beat your Average Score of: 73,168 > > Your Bejeweled 2 Skill Level: three star. That’s for the timed game. I was wondering, is there a strategy for the non-timed game to avoid the ‘no more moves’ or is it basically a gamble? I can’t get past level 4. ---

That’s weird. It doesn’t say ‘You did not beat your average score of:’ on the page. But when you cut and paste. There it is. ---

I’m with you. I saw another thread here where someone said they’ve scored 500,000 on the untimed mode. My highest score is a little more than 1/100 of that…
