Hello.

In the docs:
Grandfather's clock is a simple patience game. With some experience you should be able to solve most deals. It is played with one card deck. The aim is to put the cards as real ascending sequences on the foundation.

Grandfather's Clock is played with three card decks actually.

Compute with me:
Clock has twelve piles. One pile has thirteen cards.
One card deck has fifty two cards.

12 *13 = 156 cards
156 / 52 = 3 card decks


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Reading docs.

Actual Results:

No, just one.

Me computes: twelve piles with one card each (12 cards) and 8 playing piles beside the clock and on each are 5 cards (5 * 8 = 40 cards)
12 + 40 = 52 = ONE card deck

So I'm going to close your report as invalid.

But dealing with this report I fixed one error and a few typos in the german translation, one wrong help anchor and some errors in the documentation and one i18n bug in the application.
I'd say that's a very sucessful bug report, many thanks.
