I think such boards must happen more often because of mine placing algorithm. If mines placed equiprobable we get only single mines, sometimes pairs.

thanks stephan (but i have to admit it was an insanely fast board complete right half could be solved without any hesitation). this week i can be happy if i manage to lose no more than 3 points on you though Wink

It was quite lucky to finish in #1 as I didn't find much time to play during the week. But yesterday at 5:40 p.m., I decided to try again. It took 40 minutes to beat my Tuesday score of 16.36. But then, I finished 16.10, 15.60 and finally 15.29. Thank you for attending a concert instead of striking back Smiley. Will keep the season a bit more open than otherwise Cool.

PS: I lost a 13.21 by unlucky guesses - this would have been a nice result.

Congrats EWQMinesweeper for first season win!!

I'm looking forward to participating in division 1 last time I made it into this division I did not able to play during that time. Sad

Grats to EWQ  Smiley - but somehow it's sad that Stephan was beaten just one win away from drawing even with the all time record of 6 consecutive won seasons.  Cry

But for me there's something even more sad: I couldn't play all week long and started compeeting only yesterday evening. I worked myself down to 13.97 what would have done the job. But when I wanted to upload, the url didn't work. I figured out, that there must have been an error on downloading the new tournament info, cause the board was slightly different from the official T-board.
I redownloaded the board - but it was already 1:30 in the morning and I was to tired for a real fightback. I got down to 15.07 but that was all I could do...   Smiley

Congratulations to EWQMinesweeper! First season win, then with great 57 points Shocked and 5 T wins, you well deserve it after this constant high-level performance. Of course, you could have attended another concert yesterday so that I could win T8 Wink.

I agree with Christoph that a 6th season win in a row would have been nice - but as in past, the December/January season wasn't my friend again. I could hardly play besides on Saturdays, and that isn't enough battling against the motivated youth.

Welcome Harryck in division 1 again. I see that you have already done your first div1 submission!
Will be an interesting season, as it's a really new mixture of players. In past seasons, mostly the same players appeared in div1. Compared to season 22, only Maruda and myself are in div1 of S40 as well. Caren, Christoph, Nikolaj, and Qetuth find theirselves in div2, and hexx, and Luca Vezzoni retired from participating in Ts.

although i really like challenging tournament boards, think that the current 30*10/108 board can be solved and already got quite far, i recommend to change this week's board to some solvable settings. maybe 175 mines?

I agree with EWQM. It's always a good indicator for boards that are too challenging if nobody uploads a time during the first 8 T hours.

I suggest 30x10/180. It's near to 175, and we had this board before.

I didn't try the board. Maybe I'll have half an hour spare a little later today - then I'll maybe agree Grin
