Woohoo! 73 seconds!
I think that is my best flagger time ever, and also the first sub80 I think
Of course played on the XP version so I wouldn't ruin my stats with my hilarious flagging times and therefore no stats or video of the game I would guess around 60-80 mines flagged - I use to flag a lot when I play with flags. 146 3BV by the way

Jon Simonsen's, Alexis Marcadet's, and my own clone stats have been updated. Florent Calosso has been updated in the bestever, and also Robert Benditz, Traian Nitu & Christian Mengelkoch (and for the other i forgot, just tell me!)

Today was a very good expert day : i made my 2nd sub60, a 59.35 on a 144 3bv board, 64x2, 66, 67 and a 68.... Very nice day !

Wow! Cool! I got another 19 today! It is my 3rd sub-20 ever! Although my 17 was on a super-easy board, I got a cool previous 19 with 2.65 3BV/s. I thought it would be very difficult to get sub-20 again, and here it is! A nice 19.85 on a 38 3BV board, giving 2.02 2BV/s - playing NF, as always!

I have 19+86 = 105 for this period! Nice, nice!

Congrats to all those recent record breakers and record 'tiers'
Nice to see you getting some really good non-UPK scores, Roli. I guess (and hope) you're more proud of that 13 than your 9
I'm still missing a 13 on the clone, but I'm also concentrating more on expert these days though

Happy sweeping!

Yippie, at last. It's dedicated to Stephan who once taught me to play non-flagging. :) I wish I had played it fast, but I was shortly before leaving my flat. (just a few more relaxed games...) The 3BV was 36 but the board was perfect. Happy Sweeping!

The board should be good enough for a top player to achieve 11 or less on a good day. I have certainly had better days

Nothing special, but only my 2nd time ever to get a 3BV/s higher than 2.87. This one was a 24,96 on a 76 3BV board. Since my record is still only a 22 on a 37 3BV board, i think i can be quite happy with this game.

Finally I'm starting to feel that my expert game is once again going in the right direction! Today I have finished four games on expert playing NF-style and they have all been sub-80s which is really good considering that I have an average expert time above 80!

I also had my lowest 3bv board ever... a 102 3bv board and I managed to clear 74 out the 102 3bv and had an est time of 62.85 but it still might have been a new record and I certainly think it would have been a new NF record! The sad thing is that I didn't even mess up on a guess!

@ Rod: I just tried my 20 again from my webpage and it worked fine. I got the video on the 0.94 version though, not the 0.95. Can you view older videos from the 0.95 version? Hopefull there's not a problem there.

@ Jason: I'll play multiplayer with you, but it depends on how good you are. If you're much better than me, it's not worth it. But if we're in the same "league", then I'll play.

@Rod: That's peculiar, because I downloaded Dave's 20 and it came out fine. I am still running the .94 version so maybe there is a grandfathering problem of some sort. Also, while we are on the topic, I have been meaning to e-mail you about a couple of suggetions I have for the clone. If I post it here maybe you can get some more feedback that way, too.

1. I would like to see a Last 10 or last 20 section in the history for averages. Maybe even an archive of some sort that you can scroll back through.
2. Less important, but I have seen mention of it. A back button in the counters window would be nice. Sometimes I would like to re-look at something. Maybe even a 5 game archive that just shows the counter stats for the last few games.

I usually don't get too excited over 3bv/s stats, but this one made me smile at least. The estimated 2.44 was a 25 on a 61, but it was on win2000, so I estimated the times based on a 25.99. This one was a 29.95 on a 74 and it makes for a pretty nice video for my collection. So, anyway, back to srtuggling at expert.

@Stevan: no, I'm absolutely not mad at you. You probably didn't see my answer. Take a look:

On August 19, you wrote:
"Hi ppl. Have Dion really done 40?!? Rod have you finished "my" multiplayer?!? Whats all this fuss ..."

Then, on August 20, I announced my 2nd 83 and also answered:
"@Stevan: no, I still didn't finish the Multiplayer feature. But I can say that I fixed the bug from the last versions, and it will be fully playable in the next one."

Well, the next one is online. It's version 0.95 beta. It is working well now. But I'm currently working on adding spectators to multiplayer games, so that other people can witness if any record is broken. So, probably multiplayer feature will change again in next version. But it is going to get much better!

@Dave Morgan: This bug is already fixed. I'll ask Detrusor to build another graph like the other one to check if it was really fixed or not.

@Dennis: Wonderfull! Many congratulations! You're my hero on intermediate!

@Dave Matson: hey Dave, check if there is something wrong with your 20 game on your page. I downloaded it and it was corrupted.

@Dave: One of my 3.45 3bv/s was made on the original Minesweeper on December 13 2003 so it's been a while... Then suddenly I get two more games with a 3bv/s of 3.45 but I think it's mostly a question of coincidence really. I did also get a game with a 3bv/s of 3.44 in between the two 3.45s! ;-)

Oh and... WOHOOO!!! I just got a 15.25 on int! It feels really good because I haven't been able to go below 17 ever since I got my 13 and I've gotten quite a few sub-20s and missed a lot of nice chances. This 15 was on a 37 3bv board and I used 51 clicks to solve it NF. I've got the vid if anyone wants it!

@Everyone: Happy sweeping and good luck!

@Dennis - wasn't there a bug in the clone before that meant that certain numbers were more likely to occur than others? Maybe that hasn't properly been fixed and that's what caused you to get 3 x 3.45 3bv/s ? (I realise that 3bv/s is calculated from 2 other numbers, but a bug in the timer could still probably make certain decimal parts more likely than others)

3.45 3bv/s X 3!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comments:  

What's wrong with me and this number? I just got my third 3.45 3bv/s game. What's the chance of that happening when that's my best 3bv/s ratio? I didn't even feel I was going fast... I just noticed that it saved the game and since it wasn't a sub-20 I figured it must be a game with a 3bv/s ratio above 3... Well, it was indeed. I just don't get it. This one was another 78 3bv board and I have the vid of course.... if it's working... oh oh... I didn't even check yet... Hmm, better go download that 0.95 version!!!!

hehehe... so ironic: I decided to play just a little intermediate, but was accidently using version 0.94, and not the one released TODAY! That's what happens: I got a board which shows an eight! For the first time. And even better: I finished it! But the video also has the bug mentioned before. Fortunately, playback stops just for one or two seconds. Anyway, a cool game that had estimated time in 19 or 20 during most of it and finished in 24 seconds! Cool!

Well, in fact, this bug was reported in the very first days of the latest release... I was able to fix it quickly. I just didn't release a new version because I was waiting to add some more things before doing it. But I see no reason for not releasing a new one right now. So, it is there. Version 0.95 beta is available now and has not only this problem fixed, but also that one that occured with multiplayer games, that was sometimes showing boards without any mine. I hope you all like it!

Hi there! I'm a Spanish sweeper :) I've been playing Minesweeper quite some time lately and my times had been lowering dramatically, so i just thought about looking for some kind of online version and i got here. Nice webpage!

I was beginning to wonder about clones anf that things and i have just downloaded that Rodrigo Silveira's clone to try it. I still don't know very well about 3BV and those things. Anyway, i hope i can get under 80 soon, i was just about yesterday night but only 5 clicks away i ended and thinking it was over i looked at the clock and it was going on... there was a single stupid cell i forgot to draw in the middle of the table, hard to spot i swear!

I'll be recording videos soon, see you in the rankings!

Hello all! I've been an avid fan of Minesweeper for *many* years. My scores haven't changed in a long time though, because I decided to play the game a little differently.

I always loved the logic involved in Minesweeper, particularly when playing in expert mode and getting to some of the really dense parts. Eventually I decided to mess with the mine density until I found a method that I truly love to play on a daily basis and have never gone back to "speed" Minsweeper.

On the standard expert size, I set the number of mines to 150. The ultimate goal is still winning, but time is not an issue, because winning becomes very difficult. The primary goal is simply for the most mines marked off, or the lowest score in terms of mines left (150 is the beginning score, 0 is the absolute best). This density level makes Minesweeper take on the dynamics of chess, in a way. I'm forced to think my moves through very carefully, and a good portion of the game is thrown to chance.

Since playing this way for years I've come to memorize some advanced probabilities that surface in this wonderful game. My best score to date is 8 mines remaining, having never actually won (I will someday!) Some of my longest games have stretched on for hours.

I encourage everyone here to try this method just for a little while. At first it can be frustrating (you find yourself running out of sure places to clear squares very quickly) and forcing oneself to slow their gameplay can be difficult, but in all the time I spent playing the game fast, I never understood the patterns and theory behind it as much as I do now.

Happy sweeping!

-Chris

@ Rod: There is something seriously wrong with some of my recent videos from the clone. They won't play back properly. When the video first starts, it just shows the yellow dot on the board, and it doesn't move, but the playback bar moves. Also, if I move the playback bar forward to near the end of the video, sometimes is goes back to normal, sometimes it just stays the same with the yellow dot frozen on the board. Any ideas?

Hehe... I just got a 3.44 3bv/s game on int on a 78 3bv board. Weird, isn't it? The one yesterday was 77 3bv and 3.45... Very similar and then two days in a row when I haven't been able to do this well for about half a year!!!

WOW! How did I manage to get 3.45 3bv/s exactly once more? I don't know... All I know is that I'm really happy about this second one because it was on the clone, unlike the first one which was on the Microsoft version. This one was done on a 77 3bv board in 23.30 seconds, of course using the NF style! I have the video if anyone should be interested! I also got a 17, an 18 and a 19 tonight... Neat! I guess I haven't lost my touch on int... I still s*ck on expert though and rarely even get a sub-80!

@Jason: No, you can't make a fake the way I did with the new clone. I just found an easy board, practised it, loaded it, began recording and played it. Only very little needed to be done with the video other than that to make it look genuine.
While we're at the video stuff, you can check out my genuine 51 sec video

@ Martin: hehe good one for a moment there i thought you scored 37 seconds. I really enjoy watching you play NF style only wish i can do the same!! I have been playing a bit of NF lately especially in beginner and inter just need a bit more work with the expert!!

but about the clip:- It was a really good clip!! too bad it was a fake... is it still possible now to do fakes with whatever method you were doing??? ( I honestly couldn't tell that the clip was a fake )

I've just got back from a 4-day freshman excursion, so with my 2-week trip to the Alps just before that, it means I almost haven't played for the last 3 weeks. I'll see if I can change that now.

@Jason: You can find my fake 37 here:
http://gymks.dk/lort/db37.avi.
And just to make it clear: this video was an attempt to show that it was pretty easy to make a genuine looking fake video with a clone that was developed at that time. It was not an attempt to make anyone believe that I had made a genuine 37.

I love minesweeper so much! I've been playing it since I was 5 years old. Have any of you guys tried Microsoft's new Minesweeper? Minesweeper Flags. It is a multi-player version, where players compete to uncover the most flags.

Sorry the the multiple posts in a row, though the first wasn't me. It might only be 0.02 sec faster, but it's my new expert record, on a 137 3BV board this time. Time for a little int before sumbitting my times.

Well, it looks like the spammer knows my last name, wonderful. That last post wasnt by me, I hope you know, Jan Dubois. Congrats.

Why do I feel so strange with 10 sub 20s, and only 2x18, when so many people out there get 18 or lower on their first or 2nd sub 18? Guess I'm just jealous of all you strange people. Same thing for exp for me. I climbed the ladder from 69 to 66, and I have some 7 sub 70 now, but 66 is still my best. I'll just take that to mean I'm due for some really good times soon.

Happy sweeping all.

Hi, I'm new here.

I acknowledge that my scores pale in comparison to many on this site, but they do qualify. How should I submit my scores such that Damien Moore can accept them as adequate proof? I have videos and screenshots. Thats pretty much it. If anyone can provide an answer, I'd appreciate it.

Well done Rodrigo.

I feel really slow on expert at the moment. I can't seem to sub70.

On the up, my int feels quite fast. I got a nice 17(.3x) on a 44 3bv board, which I think it faster than my previous 17. I can break it again; it's just a matter of time.

But expert doesn't feel like it wants to follow.

All those who think they have bad times, just practice. We all started out like you guys at one stage or another.

@Rodrigo: Yes, 17 was my first sub-20 and it was even on a 39 3bv board! I still can't believe I did that. That's still the high point of my minesweeper career, you know!

@Jason: Hmmm, three hours a day, huh!? I don't think I have time to do that, especially not as soon as school starts again but hopefully less will be good enough for me to improve some on expert anyway! What's your int score? Good luck improving it!

@Dennis: thanks. I remembered, immediately after getting my 17, your first 17 video that you sent me a long time ago. As I remember, that was your first sub-20, right? So nice!

@Lloyd: and, of course, I remembered, immediately BEFORE getting my 17, a conversation that we had on IRC just one day before. You said that I could get a better expert time for being able to get a 19 NF. To be honest, this stimulated me to play intermediate, instead of expert! And see what happened!

Anyway, I still have to improve on expert. And also get some other less lucky sub-20s!

WOW, Rodrigo... CONGRATS!!! I've been waiting for this to happen! It seems like yesterday you were still struggling to get sub-30s! Time flies. It is wonderful to see you get a 17; that's a very nice score indeed... even if it was on one of the easiest boards I've ever seen! No guesses needed and that's quite nice for a 26 3bv board! Time to improve some more on expert... for BOTH of us! I'm struggling to get sub-80s at the moment so I don't expect to break my record any time soon but I'm still having fun and right now that's all that matters!

@Jason: Congrats to you as well! 52 seconds is amazing! I hope I'll get there too some day!

Happy sweeping and good luck everyone!

Wooooooow!!! Incredible!! I have been feeling very well playing expert, and didn't play any other level for the last 4 days... Decided to play some intermediate and BOOM!! There it is! A nice 17.90 on a easy 26 3BV board.

Could have been more well-played, though! Anyway, the video is here, zipped:

I broke my int NF record last night, on a 40 3BV board. That is my 3rd best time overall, and almost an 18 too. It's also my best int this period (I had a 20 before).
