EWQ, you did it. Congrats to you 3. I have tried too many times. I will give up now.

Damn! I've solved this board! 1642 sec, but I really didn't know that time over 999 is not counted!

Congratulations to those who invested so much time to finish the last board and as well managed to finish in less than 1000 seconds. I agree that this was too difficult as only four players were listed in the ranking. Will try to check with Yariv that the generators won't produce such difficult boards.

@EWQM.: Didn't check the forum lately, so couldn't raise my hand for an easier board.

What do you think about increasing timer by one digit?

This has been a very chaotic season in division 2.  We now have enough players for 3 divisions next season, even though 3 of 16 players have not recorded a single point.  Sam Haynes with his 2 participations will have enough points to qualify for d2 next season.  If Daniel chooses he will likely do the same.  Gracebalma had his first ever d2 apearance in 36 seasons, if enough of better players quit I plan to stick around to get a d1 appearance in my profile Grin.  I will likely finish the season in 5th place in d2 despite only 6 participations, one of which did not yield me points.

Happy New Year to all players of Nonosweeper!

@Vladimir: Yariv says that increasing timer by one digit would need changes at the software. He hopefully will find time to deal with this at the next update. But for the near future, 999 will be the end. Sorry.

@all who found S51/T6 (26x20/249) to be too difficult: I suggested a "difficulty index" to Yariv. This index will us prevent from getting boards which are nearly unsolvable. Background: Unsolvable boards were used to have a huge amount of squares and a medium density and a nearly quadratic grid.
Yariv has already implemented the new restriction. I hope that the category G board in next season will be solved by much more players than S51/T6.

@NYMike: I appreciate that Yariv's mail about more challenging tournaments led at least some retired players to come back so that we get division 3 again Smiley. And hopefully, by splitting div2 and div3, it will be enough competition to keep players playing.

Hi Lutz,

congratulations for your first official T win! Indeed, it's already your second rank #1 in division 1. But you might remember, in S49/T8, Gabi submitted a better time but was in div2 at that time Sad.

And Germany goes ahead: With now 5 tournament winners, we are quite far away from CZE (3) and AUT (2). Cool

@NYMike: You're right. I've only counted division seasons (4 ff.) Sad.
