Comments: Daniela, If you dont click around wildly, how do expect to get good times? Taking your time and never guessing is slooowwwww... My shoe size is 16 US, I think its about 52-54 European sizes. And I got my sub-20 #100 tonite; check my profile for the totals.

It is also too cold to sweep fast (for me anyway). Congrats Dan with the 53, keep sweeping everyone.

If you're going to start a site, use a text editor... Anyway, Im pretty sure something outside of computers and minesweeper hasn't allowed Damien to update. But I can garantee that he'll update before 2010.

Comments: HI all. How are you all doing? I barely play minesweeper any more. I feel unlucky with my 66 record as when i got into low 60s form the first time, i stopped playing and lost my best form to date then. Recently when i was getting loads of 70-75, i also stopped. I suppose i get a bit demoralised when i don't beat my record. Maybe i'm simply not as consistent as you guys or else i just don't have the interest at the moment. Summer's here, so i suppose i just want to enjoy the weather or something. Well done you guys on beating your recrods... Matt - you seem to be developing into a real good player. Seems like you got real potential. Well done dan too. PLeasent suprise!

Comments: Congrats Dan. I hope you follow Lanyje and Sriram into the sub-50er's .I've rediscovered some speed for expert and hope to sub-60 within the month or two. Also, it seems I may have gotten over the nervousness I get when I get a fast board that I recgonize (read the "Videos" essay at my site). I got a board today, that happened to be the same board as one of Damien's 17 videos here (the 4th 17 on that page); I recognized it a couple seconds in, then some thing incredible happened: I didn't screw up! I finished in a 16! You dont even see the 1 on the timer at the start and I had two squares left to clear when it changed from 15 to 16. Sorry, but Im just happy. Keep playing everybody.

Comments: I'm shocked, but I just got a 53. I've been playing 5-10 seconds slow the past few days. Most of my games haven't even been close to breaking 60. My 53 game didn't feel noticeably faster than any other game today, but the good ol' record window popped up for the first time in a couple months and it feels good.

Comments: Owen, right now I can barely jog one mile in 9 minutes without having to stop. I think that means I'm in lousy shape :) At least I've been able to get my lazy ass out to the trail almost every day lately, so my running should improve. Oh, my minesweeping has gone to hell since I spent 4 days playing intermediate a week ago. I also went into a slump the last time I played intermediate for a few days. It is expert only for me for awhile so I can try to break 50.

It seems the decent weather and summer holidays are taking preferance to my sweeping..... I haven't lost my form that badly though. I got 77 today and if i die i'd usually get low 70s

Comments:

Hi,

On expert, I click madly for a couple of seconds, if nothing opens, I just madly click near the reset button to start over. If anything at all opens up, I try to start playing from it.... usually my momentum and clicking means I lose the game before I realise what's going on though.

I play most minesweeper when having IM conversations, I don't have time to play *every* average board.

Comments: I only started playing Minesweeper seriously a few (5) months ago. After looking at those records, I just realized that I'm way out of their class. Looks like I'll be trying for a while... One more thing, for those of you who have such low times (4,20,70 or better), do you just keep restarting until you get a good map?

Comments: I use Camtasia almost all the time. Despite my very old configuration (486/100Mhz - 32 RAM) I have no problems running Camtasia (at 5 frames per second, but quality - good enough). I've got all my best results on video :-) It is very important to me to watch my recorded games ... that's how I optimize my performance. In expert boards I usually mark 85 bombs (which could not be done without learning from my videos), but my speed is not good ...

Comments: I never disagreed that minesweeper wasn't a sport, I just said that we should use that word loosely. I guess Im thinking of sports as something athletic that involves large parts of, if not the whole, body. In cycling you go around a track, as do you in car racing, but in cycling you actually excercise and become winded from the physical exertion. If you get winded from using your foot to press down on a pedal for 500 miles, you are very pathetic. Minesweeper involves the same athleticy as knitting. Minesweepers sit in a chair and use maybe a finger or two. Maybe someday, minesweeper will become a full-fledged 'sport', but for now, it's just an obsessive, competitive hobby...like stamp collecting....

Comments: I consider chess as a sport. In Holland, we call it "denksport", a sport for your brain. Minesweeper is in a way a "denksport", but it's more than that. You have to react very quickly and your physical conditions must be allright. With a broken finger, you can play chess, but you can't play minesweeper. OK, it's true that minesweeper isn't an outdoor sport. But aren't tabletennis, indoor soccer, gymnastics and badminton sports? These sports are all indoor. Of course, I have to say, you can play these sports outdoor, but theoretically, the same goes up for minesweeper. About car racing being a sport or not, I've had very much discussions with myself. Roelof 1 says it isn't a sport, for the reason Matt gave up. But then Roelof 2 says: "But Roelof 1, listen, you have to be strong, you have to react quickly, you need pluck and you have to time very well with overtaking." Butt still, most of the game is decided in the pits. You can't say car racing isn't a sport, just because you use an expedient. If you say that, tennis and cycling would't be sports either. But then, in this case the expedient is a motor... You see, I'm not sure for myself if car racing is a sport or not. In the sport catern of our newspaper chess and car racing are both reviewed. According to them, both activities are sports. So if we have a world championship minesweeper in a couple of years, I will be very angry if they don't review the minesweeper games. I consider minesweeper as a sport, certainly if chess and car racing are one too.

Comments: I think technically chess is a sport, so it ought to follow that Minesweeper is. It is physical as we have to warm up our hands and then practice lots to move them really fast. I just checked the dictionary and it said "pastime, game; outdoor pastime". So I guess Minesweeper falls under thefirst half of the definition.

Comments: Car Racing IS a sport, and DOES take talent. Sometime maybe you should try driving 190 mph, 3 inches from someone elses bumper, and try to do it in record time with points and huge amouts of money available for the taking... and do it without crashing and dying when you turn the wheel.

Comments: A sport is something you have to work for, something you're trying to break your records with and so. If Formule 1 and stuff like that are sports, I think minesweeper is absolutely one, beacuse you have to be concentrated. In Dutch, I have much more arguments, but I can't tell them in English.

Comments: is anybody following Wimbledon? Has anybody seen how Henin, from our tiny tiny tiny country Belgium has defeated the current best player Capriati from huge USA? She was already very lucky in the final of the French Open against the other Belgian, Clijsters. I apologize for talking about sports, but for us tiny tiny Belgians, this is pretty neat. And I had nothing to say about sweeping anyway. I'm trying yet failing to improve.

Comments: Sophie, I submitted my score weeks ago. When you submit your score(s) they're not automatically put on the world records list; Damien Moore updates the site sometimes. We're all dying for an update, and if everything is as it's supposed to be that will happen one of these days. (not sure if that is correct English, but you know what I mean). So, if you have sent it to thefinerminer@hotmail.com, you'll probably be in the list one of these days.

Comments: My intermediate time qualifies for the World Record List, however if I try to submit it via the internet it doesn't work. I am from Australia and got this score in June 2001. Can you please help me get my score on the World Reocrd List?? Thank you!

About the .ini file. I presume (I haven't checked though!) that the difficulty field is set depending on how you last exitted the game. Minesweeper 'remembers' the difficulty you finished on in the last session. I dare say by just putting in random numbers (that make no sense to it), it started you on beginner the next time you loaded 'sweeper?

I could be wrong!

Comments: Hey now, I'm pretty sure just about everyone who takes this game seriously knows about the winmine.ini file (except Win2000 users). Now, if you open winmine.ini, the first few lines usually look like this: [Minesweeper] Difficulty=XX Height=XX ...etc Now can anyone conjecture what/how/why the second line (Difficulty) is supposed to work? I've tried all numbers from 1 to 99 to see if it's supposed to make any sort of difference (perhaps in the clustering of mines?) but I failed to see any marked difference. Shed some light anyone?

Comments: Ye Andrew - Although alot like athletics here they don't really like us talking about it too much.... I did 2 hour cycle up mountainy region today. It was beautiful. The day was so fine and sunny. My legs didn't ache me at all ( they were sore for the past week or two) due to running ) I got 72 and 73 recently.

Comments: I recently installed an extra 256 megs of ram (was 128) and just now I tried to run Camtasia again. It runs like a dream now! I've set Camtasia to automatically configure and even with a 32-bit desktop, it gets an average of 15 fps. So, for all of you with reasonably fast processors and Camtasia not running at all: it might be the ram. As a reminder: I've got an athlon 700, now with 384 megs of ram and running win2k.

Comments: Hello everybody, Just a word to tell you that you won't hear of me in the next 2 months, cause I'll have a holiday in India. It's a shame to stop sweeping now, cause I was in a good period for minesweeper, especially inter. I think I could have sub-20 for the third time soon, but never mind. I'm just wondering if I'll still be able to sub-30 after a 2 months break... I can't wait for the update of that site, I should be in the list for the first time! :) Have a nice holiday everybody, and try not to improve too much the best scores the next 2 months ;) Manu.

Comments: Just me, Roelof. Thought I'd post a message with my nickname above it. Marc and Ben'll know what it is. Maybe you guys too; I don't know what the English word is. I'm glad I have fun again with sweeping. After Matt's world record I felt I had to sub-20. I tried to force it, but I didn't succeed. I felt awful and because I had just broken my expert score I didn't thought I had a chance to break anything. But today I got three sub-80's. I hardly play intermediate. I got my first 21 after I hadn't played int. for a very long time. Focus on expert now and hope that I'll sub-20 in a few months. Bye for now. Can't wait for the update...
