When my relatives moved to Linux

Followup:

Are you running this on Linux as a standalone? I bet you are, because the 
stack doesn't work on Windows or Mac as a standalone, either.

You're running into the 10-statement runtime limitation with that "do field 
'fSum'" business.

Easy way to fix that:

put 0 into fld "SSS"
repeat with i = 1 to 14
  if the vis of img("Y" & i) = true then add 1 to fld "SSS"
end repeat
put fld "SSS" into SSUM
if SSum = 14 then
  doSuccess
else
  put empty into fld "SSS"
end if

Then in the card or stack script,

on doSuccess
  wait 50 ticks

  go next
end doSuccess

The loop condenses your "brute force" script considerably.

Or, just put the whole thing into an object that is static.
