Yay!  Cheesy

After deciding about 6 months ago I should easily be able to go under 200, and messing up every time I went close, I finally have: 191.25!

Which makes 5 new exp/genius times counting in my top 5s in the last week, with not all that much more playing than usual, since the change to my mouse settings and drivers...

Wow, I wonder what I could do with a better chair  Grin

@hexx: grats. It seems like just the other day you were aiming to reach 148. How much lower do you intend to go on genius?

@ Q

Present day, my goal is to break into the 2 digit barrier, perhaps sub-90. Who knows?! Wink

BTW, have you ever tried to play Int without flagging or you don't like to play NF?
It's so easyyyyyyy Roll Eyes , you will improve to 16s without playing that much! Smiley

I do occasionally try non flagging int, but my best is 29, I rarely get under 35. Whereas playing 'normally' I get high 20s or better pretty consistently, usually several 25s or 26s in a session. And I dont find int as fun as genius, so I don't really try that much.

I'm curious though how many other people in the top 30 or so dont use nf int. I must be close to the fastest now, not that that is neccesarily something to brag about

And...90 seconds?!? Shocked Well, I did ask....

@ Qetuth

I also use flags on INT... ALL THE TIME... I can't keep a mental picture of where the mines are without them... I only use NF on small tourney boards and Beginner... That may explain why our times are sooooo close on most of our stuff.

I agree with you that the Genius level is much more fun than INT. It also seems like we celebrate mediocrity by giving seconds on the beginner level a value 24 times greater than that of a second on genius on the main world ranking table .

I personally would rather say that I'm a great genius than a great beginner! (although at the moment, i would only say that I'm a decent genius player) Smiley I probably think this way because I can't for the life of me get a 1 on beginner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  ARRRRGGGH!!!!  Angry

Anyways... I couldn't let you go under the radar with that new top 10 genius score!  Tongue (179)

48.56s sounds great to me Wink

@ Q and Gene:

When you guys find out the pleasure of playing Int on NF mode you won't stop sweeping for 2 weeks. 8)

@gene: actually, genius seconds are worthless on the main rankings table Tongue But I've played around with alternate numberings for the weighted boards and can't find one I like better, and in unweighted beg and int become useless except as tiebreakers (which is not neccesarily a bad thing  Wink )

For a while now I've have a spreadsheet with my own rankings. I couldn't decide on a system so I used 16, then sorted poeple by their average ranking over the 16. Incidentally, my last genius time caused me to pass you, going to 9.50th over your 9.75th. Your genius time took you to 8.81th over my 9.69th. We do that a lot. Oh, and hexx? You just went from 1.25st to 1.06st. Theres now only one category you arent winning: sum of 5 int times, you're a very slow 54! Hopeless, really...maybe you should try flagging?  Roll Eyes

@Nikolaj:

Of course I will break 40s barrier, it's written in the stars! Wink
I'm not joking Undecided or doing "show off" Tongue when I said that my goals are:0.98s, 7s, 35s , 99s and 55s(Exp NF).

OH, tonight's game is irrelevant for me, even so i think Portugal will prevail because Oliver Kahn will play, everybody knows he his not a good goalkeeper.Grin Grin Grin
