What you can do Roland, can I do, too! Grin

Mine was a 13,98. So pretty close to 14. But after my 14x2 which were so close to 13 I think it's just fair.

@Roland:
Very well Roli. This time you were really fast.
What is 0.01s! it is nothing, total emptyness!!!!!!. The 13 is Grin but the double zero is  Tongue. Personally i don't like .00 i would prefer .03 or .10 .

About Expert: My approach to this level is not a surprise, i'm sure that you guys use to play the same way.The difference is that by using sectors and once they are finished you don't need to go there anymore!!!!!

About what to do with center and left sectors:
Center sector- Keep using C and D as new mined blocks are being revealed, it is not rare to "clean-up" all center sector this way. For instance, i used C and D on the missed 47s shot at the strategy post to left out  the small "square" to be swept.  
Left sector- Try to mimic right sector using mirrored STEP1.

P.S. 1- At the same time you did 13.00000000000000000000s  i managed 12.23s , my new personal record!!!!!! Wink
P.S. 2- Mail me the 13s shot if you please.
(and mail me any other interesting Intermediate scores you may achieve in the future)

@Maruda:
Well done, 66s is a great score, did you use my strategy or your own?

@Gero:
First, with Maruda's and Roland's latest scores you are now ranked #6 on Expert. Quite honestly, you can do better than 68s and if you tied Roli's 13s .......
Second, i tried out the video tips you said a few days ago and still have the same problems. It is very annoying.Angry
I have just mailed you 2 videos that show exactly the problems i'm facing.

13,23s!!! Grin
I could have got 12s if I wouldn't had been a bit slow in the beginning. But 13 is ok, too. Smiley

@hexx: Could you perhaps make an example vid for your exp strategy? I don't understand your explanation 100%, so it would help. Or do you have the same problemds like on genius? I don't know what you could change. Perhaps less frames/sec.

Argh, Gero. Get back to school kid.  Tongue Or get a job. You have way too much time. I have to learn for my diploma exams and don't have the time to chase you all the time. Congrats anyways,

YES: 64,95!!! Grin

It was a really perfect game. Very easy. And it was played with my own strategy. Smiley But I'm sure it isn't far away from hexx's.

@Roland: I had to learn for school pretty much the last weeks, so I think it's ok,  when I'm now playing so much.
Good luck for your diploma exams.

Hip hip hooray - after a long disappointing time, I've "learned" hexx's intermediate strategy. So, after getting 20x3 and 21x3 today, I got a new best 19 (19.57), before - right in the next game - I smashed away my old record by achieving a nice 16.93. So, I'm "best of the rest" again, which makes me glad Smiley.

Congrats to Gero as well - please do not cross my 61 in expert Wink

@Gero: You got me. I'm ill these days, so maybe my memory is out of order as well. Congrats for tying my expert score. So, now, you can do any time you want as you're in front me anyway...

@hexx: I'm ill, so no alcohol these days. And there is not much sun in Munich today. And no chicks in my room Wink. Maybe you're right and I should try to get a 1 in beginner.

My computer must be repaired again, so I tried non-flagging style on Expert at my parents computer. I completed 4 games (I didn't play too long, after a while it got boring) with following times:

1. 273
2. 276
3. 292
4. 337

My first finished game was even the fastes one.
Did anybody tried the same? If yes, what scores did you get?
I think I won't try the same for genius. Wink

@Gero:

I tried on early may and finished 1 board with the following score:
147s  Wink

I was trying to see if it would be possible to finish Expert in a decent time, then i gave up. Tongue

Congrats Luca, for your 12s. Smiley
I really hope to get this really impressive score soon, too.

Btw, what was the exact time of your 12s?

A bit, but not so much. I wanted to show with this post that I don't have a problem in general with you, but just with your tournament strategy. That's all. Smiley
