Well, 13x5 = tied Stephan in WR Smiley

Now I'm one 12 behind Gero and I know I'm perfectly capable of getting 12x5. Watch out Roli! your average 11.6 is not THAT far anymore Tongue

Hehe just noticed I have perfectly rounded averages

1.0+13.0+56.0+153.0=TTL 154.0 in World rankings including genius Tongue

Hey Nikolaj,

congratulations to your 12! When you wrote your pre-last post, I didn't expect you to sub-13 so quickly, so today, I wasn't even aware of you having already achieved a 12!
But at least, I managed to tie your best score and your int average again, as I could finish in 12 as well.

So, I appreciate the int ranking being sorted by date and without decimals, as therefore, I'm currently in #5, even if my 12 is "only" a 12.81 and yours seems to be a 12.74 Cheesy

Screenshot will be available soon at http://www.stephan-bechtel.de. Very easy board though, 21 clicks only, but I don't care Grin

aaargh, stupid ranking system Cheesy congratulations, we have both tied our minesweeper int times  Tongue (in fact I have same scores in both games)

my board was finished in 23 clicks (1 was unnecessary) so there's not much difference in board difficulty if you ask me Smiley

What a board  Shocked Shocked Shocked

Hexx, do you think you would get 8 on such board?

Unfortunately I didn't want to blast it, becuse I knew it will be great time, so I was really slow from the moment I solved 2nd row from bottom. Otherwise even I would get 10  Grin

Hey Nikolaj,
11 is #3 in the world, at least Shocked. Congratulations! It will be hard for me to catch you ever again in intermediate, as I also miss the several 12s you obviously achieved (got my 9th 13 only Sad).

Just curious: I have >800 sub-20s at the moment. Did you track your amounts of 12, 13, 14 and so on?

Awesome!
Congratulations.
Can't imagine to get such a good time on int ever. I played pretty long for my 12 and didn't got close to get it 5 times. So great time Wink

Hey, nice score Smiley

With 11.48s, you almost broke former Roland's WR on Int (11.39s). Grin

On the other hand, i believe i wouldn't reach 8s, nor 9s on this board.
It does not fit on my strategy, i'm more concern with 1 2 , 2 2 or 2 3 edged blocks.

@hexx: Well, I haven't seen any 0s game as your new personal record  Wink I admit you have gotten much closer than I imagined, but 1.04 isn't 0 Smiley

For those who don't remember our bet:

http://www.simplismgames.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1105367487/214#214

My question is: are you coming to Vienna this year? September 20. Christoph, could you confirm the championship takes place and the date? Thank you.

Actually the Nonosweeper event is planed for Friday the 19th September (it's still time to change that if a lot of nonosweeper players protest and want it on Sunday (the minesweeper event is scheduled for 13:00 on Saturday, so if we want to play on Saturday we'd have to start in the very morning).

I plan to use basically the same system as last year: 8 short sessions with tourny points.
Perhaps you can help me with some input: I think about not ranking by the best score but by the sum of the best two in each session.
Also I'd like to use last years system to determine the boards - but I don't like the idea that players practice the boards before the tourny, so maybe I'll pick the boards myself this time (you can be sure, I wouldn't pick only 5x4 boards but a sensefull set).

First,

1.03s isn't but 0.98s or 0.95s will be 0s.
The deadline I proposed doesn't make sense anymore because what really matters is the "achievement itself" rather than the "date". Wink
I have no intention to play more beginner this year, in fact, I'm in some sort of "reflection period".
For instance, why Stephan got 20s in current T when my best was only 21.32s . This is an interesting issue because it's known Stephan "dislikes" this type of boards ?!?!?
Another, why I simply canīt beat Stephan on T boards solved by blue smile, example, 4.73s against 3.85s on last T ?!?!?!
And another, why my Minesweeper Int scores are so "bad" - best is 23.006s - when everybody makes 13s, 14s or so?!?!?!
So, I'm thinking.........I'm thinking.
0s can wait!!!!!


Second,
Sorry Nikolaj, the chances to be present in Vienna T are very low, so don't count with me. Undecided


Off topic,
My history file - Minesweeper - got corrupted Angry, is there any way to fix it?

@hexx:   i think you need to rename the history file.

and 22 on mines iint is quite normal when having 74 on mines exp. it is very hard to reach a level of skills in minesweeper in which you regulary get sub20 on int. also a 14 on int would be in top100 int highscores.

@hexx: It isn't true that I dislike this type of boards. 15x10/100 is nice for me as I play quite a lot of intermediate, so pattern recognition is quite good in columns.

And why you can't be me on blue smiley boards, I really don't know, but of course, I appreciate the status quo Smiley.

@Nikolaj: It's unlikely as well that I'll be in Vienna this year Sad
