Come on, Maruda, you won the last two seasons, just give the German players a little chance to make some points Wink. Your favourite boards are likely to come within this season, I guess.

maruda: we're not even halfway through with the current season and you are only 4 points behind. ok, so far 2 boards were good for me and 2 for stephan. considering that, it's still a very open competition.

stephan: if we want to win a season, we shouldn't depend on maruda not liking the boards Wink

btw, i don't like the current board as well. already blasted several 11s

@EWQM.: I can't agree that I don't like the board Wink. It's nice that there are two extremely low density boards within one season. And winning a season will depend for me on several things: getting many boards I'm good on (usually compliant with Maruda being not that good on these), having time enough to play, getting difficult boards not in the weeks where I'm on vacation. Last aspect failed this time again (T1), so my chance to win this season is already very low.

@Maruda: Just play your 30 minutes on Monday, upload your time so that we can see whether we have to sub-9 or to sub-8 Smiley.

talking about having enough time to play: how much time do you spent on nonosweeper per week? do you play other levels as well to stay in shape?

last week i played an hour on sunday and 30min on monday, then 20min genius during the rest of the week. normally i spend 2-3 hours on the tournament and 30min on the standard levels.

Tournaments: 1-4 hours a week (depends on free time on Sunday and Saturday and of time used for finishing one board). During the week, I usually don't play much as it is inefficient as long as I'm quite tired after work.
Standard levels: 10 minutes per month (only if I'm frustrated of T board) Smiley

EWQM., I would have preferred that as well Wink. I tried hard on Saturday, but then, the 8.79 came as a surprise at a time when I didn't hope to get any sub-9.

i just got a 14.43 on the current tournament board, S44/T6, 0.96s better than the current 1st place held by maruda. i thought i had hit the upload button but for some reason it didn't work.

the linked video shows the finished board and game statistics window. also you can see that instead of 14.43 the tournament window shows a 10s time. this seems to be a bug in the updated nono version.

i really hope that this 14.43 can be added manually, since i've spent approximately 4 hours today trying to regain the lead.

5x3/10 is stupid Angry, indeed, as without brute-forcing, I don't think a time below 0.50 is possible. And I don't like brute-forcing at all, maybe my brain is too stupid for this method. Seems that I will stay at 0.60 using "normal" playing.

@Maruda: Extremely low density boards aren't stupid Wink, they are just boards that need fast and exact mouse movement (and maybe a little bit luck to get high numbers at the edges). Unfortunately, we often have boards where the absolute performance depends on lucky mine arrangements ;-(

@stephan: considering that there are only 3003 different boards, only brute-foring maes sense. i've played a bit more than an hour so far and already got a 0.06 and finished a 0.15 and a 0.29 before. if you don't play any more this week, this season is almost over before the last board Tongue
