Yariv, due to personal involvement, I have to reply to your aspect of "an interesting race to the 6". This week's board is a typical one which punishes extremely if you don't have the chance to play several games (maybe some hour...).

For my special case, I was staying at my parents' home, and despite of the crappy mouse of my father, I could get a 7. Today, I spent six hours on board of German trains, and finally, after only eight minutes of playing at my own computer at home, I got "my" 6 - which is only the third place at the moment as hexx and Gero used the day to overtake. Okay, you could say there's still lot of time to beat them by scoring a 5, but you must have kind of well-ordered free squares to hit all 10 of them in 5 seconds...

So, I'm looking forward to season 3 with exact times Smiley

Btw, hexx and Gero: What have your 6's been? Mine was a 6.76!

Yeah, I'm also looking forward to exact times.

What about the league system? Will it be introduced for tournament? ???

To your question Stephan: Mine was 6,92s. So worse than yours. And I needed more than 8 minutes to get it. Perhaps one hour or a bit more. Tongue

Argh. Bad luck for me that I was too late and that the exact times aren't yet valid for the tournament classification...

At least, you caught the fourth place. We're directly approaching Dan's vision of many persons being in the top ranks with the same time...

I played another session, but even if I've been playing for three hours (in total) now, I couldn't finish in 5 seconds. "Only" 13x6, 84x7 and 132x8 until now.  Sad

My 6s are: 6.03, 6.37, 6.42, 6.45, 6.46, 6.60, 6.62, 6.68, 6.70, 6.76, 6.81, 6.82, and 6.95.  Angry

Yesterday, i did 7 more 6s. Smiley

6.62
6.63
6.66
6.81
6.82
6.83
6.91

So, I'm still far away of Stephan's 6.03s. I must keep practicing.

Screenshots: As far as I found out, you can link to an image which is saved on a webspace server.

Congratulations to your improvements. I probably won't find the time to play so much that I'll score a 5 as well.

@Stephan: I really hope that you won't find the time to get a 5. Wink
In general I don't spend much time on tournament boards because it's more important for me to be good in World Rankings.

Congrats to Luca with new Genius WR and second 18 (Argh, again only rank #2. Angry).  And of course to all others.

Thank you for all the congratulations,
I think I almost reached my limit
even if I missed an expert 65 (wrong click). Probably I could go under 200 in genius, but sometimes it is so boring..

The only thing that make me not so happy is the fact that I am 1st in the rank but I don't have intermediate nor expert record..

Instead, I will like play tournament



p.s.: Stephan, I didn't understand what you wrote about screenshots

About screenshots: When you add a post, in the "Add YABBC tags" icon bar, you find a Insert-Image-icon. But this button adds only a img-tag. Within the brackets, you have to write an URL where your screenshot is located. So, before you can include it in a post, you have to save the file on a webserver.
