I was happy about my 83; however, the "world record" is apparently 41 or so. It seems impossible, but I downloaded a movie of someone's game and saw how they did it. They don't click off the mines, but rather they learn how to distinguish where mines are based on the numbers they open up. Since clicking non-mine squares opens up gaps quickly, this is how it is done. Unfortunately, I learned to play the game the opposite way by marking off every single mine, so breaking an old habit will be tough.

no kidding, really?

You have got me, and that is the best score I have heard reported, which means that you have spent WAY too much time on this. I have not done it for a number of years but I peaked out at

Beginner ~ 4

Intermediate - 29?

Expert - 93, with one "almost" in the mid-80s, but had to guess and got it wrong.

I used to keep track of the number of times under 100, which I think was somewhere around 50 (too much time spent on the game).

However, I might request an age handicap, how about 0.5 seconds/year above age 20 (which gives me a adjusted score in the 70s)? The two smaller ones leave too much to chance, especially the Beginner.

beginner - 4

intermediate - 38

expert - 130

The intermediate times in the 20's are amazing as well as the sub 100 expert times. How do you move that fast?

Intermediate - 30

Expert - 76 (2x)

I'm not proud of the amount of time I have spent playing that game, yet it's still fun.

if you knew mlbfan, you'd know he had/has enough time on his hands to do such a thing.
