I just played the perfect game of Hearts!
4 straight moon shots from the first hand!
Me: Zero points! All other players: 104 points!
(talk about mundane and pointless)
I scream, you scream, we all shoot the moon for Ice Cream!

What are the names of your other players? Mine are Boochie, Flappy, and Muthalode.
My comrades in Hearts are Spud, Bucky and Willy. They’re losers, all.
Rudi, Jane and Piper. LOSERS!!!
I dunno. Sometimes Muthalode kicks my ass.
I get my arse kicked on a continual basis by That Guy, Da Idiot and F’ing Moron.
Congrats on the Perfect game! ^5.
Congrats.
I suspect that my adversaries (Jammerhoot, Binkweed and Shagnasty) cheat by cooperating to stop you STM with minimal cost to themselves.
Maybe I’m just paranoid.
Do think I’m paranoid?
Anyway, so you won by 104*4=416 points is that the best you could win by?
Well, hypothetically, you can shoot the moon when the rest of the players are on 99 and you are on 0, which is 125*4=500 pts.
I had a game a few months ago where I had 0 and the rest of the guys had over 100. One of them was just over 100 and the other two had around 115. But the perfect game scenario of the OP sounds better. Nice and symmetrical.
Wouldn’t that be 125**3*?
Yes, I do believe it would.
The Great Unwashed started it
Since every hand has 26 points that must be distributed, the highest-scoring game possible would be 363.
Three straight moon shots takes you to 78-78-78-0.
On the next hand, Player One gets the Black Queen and Player Two gets all of the Hearts, leaving you at 91-91-78-0.
On the next hand, Player Three gets the Black Queen and Player One and Player Two split the Hearts 8-4, leaving you at 99-95-91-0. It is now impossible to have another hand without winning or taking points yourself.
Shoot the moon again, and it’s 125-121-117-0.
Not quite 125*3, but close enough.
Ack. 364, not 363. I was distracted by the fireworks. Yeah, that’s it.
I’ve done this once or twice. Also, 4 shoots in 5+ hands with 0 points many, many times.
All of which means: I assume that I am the worst possible player against humans. I play like an idiot. Don’t count cards, don’t even pay attention all the time and click on the wrong suite, etc. (Is there a penalty in Real Hearts for playing a different suite when you haven’t run out of the original, and similar foul ups?)
What scares me is that Shooting is so easy on the hands when you don’t exchange cards. Definitely something that the Real Game wouldn’t let you do.
Errk, “easy on the hands…” All of sudden I’m Madge?
I left mine, because two people in my family are Pauline (Aunt) and Ben (Brother). My other brother is Michael, so I figure Michelle is close enough.
I was having a bad brain day with my “out by one” error (and I apologise to sc913 for infecting his calculations with by aberrant thoughts).
Anyway, I agree 364 is the maximum (122,121,121,0 being the most even split).
Some here have achieved 312, but what’s the highest anyone can claim to have scored?
