Unexpected result. 3BV 36 makes this game more interesting than my first 11s on 3BV 30. Dion, do you still have 2x11s???

I hope this time it will took <6 11s for me to get new record , syndromes are in the past

Interesting what times other sweepers can get on such amazing board...

I just got my second 57 on a 156 3bv-board. Time-wise it's better than the first one, it's also my 11th best expert 3bv/s. The board suits my style perfectly I suppose.
Concerning the first-to-finish sessions in Vienna: I am against them, and so is Oli. A warm-up would be better instead.

I also have some clone problems. Three days ago my hard disc crashed, so all my clone dates are gone.
No problem though, I was planning to beat them soon. Anyways, I bought a new computer and tried to install the clone. No problem, I placed the ocx-files in my system directory and it worked perfectly. But this morning, for some reason, the clone didn't work anymore. I didn't change a thing. He couldn't find the 'COMDLG32.OCX' file. I reinstalled everything but it doesn't work. Can someone give me some advice????

Hi there...
I'm back from 2 weeks of vacation in Corsica. It was very nice!
I've finished to read the bunch of emails I had received during that time, but I may have missed some of improvements of players to update the bestever list. So please tell me (you better email me) if your score hasn't been updated or if a link of a video is broken etc... Thanks
I'll try to repair the history upload tool to finally update the clone ranking ... but I still can't tell when

So who (of the sweepers who will come to vienna) likes the idea of "first to" sessions and who don't want them. Pleas e-mail me. I'll wait how many mails I'll receive till the end of the current AR-period. Then I'll think about the useful arguments and suggestions and decide with respect to majority and practicability.

I totally disagree with "first to" sessions as we really dont need it. If we have 5:30 hours available I would just say 1 sweep + half break + 1 + half + 1 + half + 1 which gives 4 hours of sweeping. And we should take first 3 beg, int and exp scores into account and that would be it.

@Stevan: good luck, I'm corious what the people will say. Either way it would be great to welcome you in vienna, so you could prove to everyone the validity of your scores without any doubt.

The following is a shameless, self-indulgent plug:

There's now an expansion pack out for Super Minesweeper, available on my website, which adds over 50 new boards to the 111 already in the full version of the game.

Actually, it's been out for about a month now, I kinda forgot to mention it here... *shrugs*

Ah well, you all know about it now!

@Gergely: First your tournament was wonderful and motivated me to organize something here in vienna. I didn't ment to criticize you. It's just that we have so view experience with minesweeper tournys that we should try something new.
There will be enought people for the tourny. I guess we'll be somewhere between eleven and twenty sweepers (most probably 16). But it's difficult to say because the Austrians are very lazy with registering. So perhaps (and I hope so) there could be around 25 players.
I think the 28th of July as registration deadline will not be to late, will it?

@Damien, Grégoire, Martin and all the others who are interssted in the tourny: have you yet dicided to come to vienna?

@Nonosweepers: The tourny will include a Nonosweeper session. It looks like it'll take place from app 9:30 to app 11:30 (befor the main Minesweeper event).

Tourny: The Minesweeper event will start at app 12:00 on Saturday 13th of August. Look forward to find more (new) details at the beginning of the next week on my website.

Hi everybody! remember me? it feels gr8 to be back in here. I'd been travelling overseas on work during the past 3-4 months. Hardly found time to minesweep, even on those dreary days (& nights!) that stretched way beyond the 17 hours psychological-mark!!! Returned home last night for a week. Pooped! Looking forward to some good minesweeping hours ahead over the next few days.

Cheers!

@Tournament staff: I'd love it if I could afford going but I'm afraid I've spent all of this year's travelling budget on golf. I've bought equipment and paid for a beginner's course and then I still need to pay much more if I decide to join that golf club when the 3-month trial period runs out. I'm having tons of fun and I'm not sweeping as much anymore, although I just did so for a couple of hours and I got 15-61. I'll probably forget to send in that too. Now I've forgotten twice in a row and last time I had 14-60... In any case, good luck to everybody who's going to participate in the tournament! I'm sure it'll be a blast. Maybe some other time I'll join one of these tournaments; mostly because I'm curious to meet other sweepers! Happy sweeping and congrats to all record breakers!

Hello again
First, thx to all who congratulated me
Second, about the tournament in Vienna on 13th of August. It's about time for some of you to say if you'll come or not. From the top of my mind: Detrusor, Daniel, Dennis L., Martin, all Scandinavians, Elmar, all Germans. This is important for Roman, for whom the trip costs tons of money and who just comes if enough sweeper participate.
If you got time and some money to spend ...
Happy sweepin'

@everyone:

finally i am going on my vacations , and there, where i would be till september, in a small village near the sea , i will not have both internet access and my arbiter's source codes. so, i could not post something clever here , nor release new arbiter versions (current is 0.41 - check out new features at my site and inside the program).

to resume my sweeping, i can say that i am not so addicted, as some sweepers there... i still can live a day without it . yeah, i am addicted to programming, that is why, probably, my total sum - 111 seconds (since 22 february 2005) - is so high.

else, i wanna 1. tell, that it was nice to meet all teh minesweeper addicts community 2. congratulate all the recent and future hi-score breakers 3. and, note, it was nice to meet people not just in the bestever list, but in live forums, irc channels and in my e-mail inbox

on this dramatical note i will stop and say: push the limits - that's the order! see ya all in 2 months.

Well, I was happy when I got my 57s, because there was a nice gap between you and me. Now you're again in front of me. For me it is a little competition between you and me. Both we're Germans and have nearly the same records. Hm, I should really play more Minesweeper again.
But Nonosweeper and Mallet Mania are really great games, too. I can only advise everybody, to try them out.

Happy sweeping all!

Feels pretty **** good.
Looking for last click for 3 sec, 129 3BV, 58 mines marked, breaking the one minute barrier.
I got 79 sub70s before, the 80th was a sub60.
You know, when I started 1 and a half year ago, those were the times the players achieved to whom I looked up: 2-15-57. Now I am there too.
I don't want to retire now, I just can't. Call it the need for speed or whatever, maybe I am just addicted.
Anyway, have a nice time and enjoy yourself.

thanks. history file format was NOT changed since arbiter_0.10, as i see in my versions log, so you may not worry. (0.10 info: +history format changed. size reduced by 30%.) So, current arbiter 0.38 supports arbiter's history since 0.10 version and arbiter's video files since 0.23. anyway, if you have some unknown troubles with statistics files (clone, arbiter - no matter), i am able to recreate them and even unite clone and arbiter statistic files

OK Gergely than 2 2hour sessions with 1hour pause would do the job, thats 5 hours which aint too much. Actually 3 hours play + 2 hours of 'meeting' :)

And I think either we should play beg+int+exp or just exp.

Hey, thanks Christoph for all the critics you made towards me and for all the suggestions to improve gameplay on the Budapest tourny so you wouldn't be that annoyed of its shortcomings
btw, my suggestions for the rules are the following: max. 4 hours of playing time (for the sake of those who want to see more of Wien and less of monitors) with one or two intermissions and best x of int and exp counts. That first-to finish section is pure luck: imho, 50/50 guesses play a far too important role in that. Of course, everyone wants some success in a competition...

IMHO its best to have 3 2hour sessions.

1 session 30 min play + 15 min rest for eyes and hands + 30 play + 15 rest + 30 play.

Pause between sessions should be 1 hour so all it could take 8 hours.

I think the best would be adding 3 best beg + 3 best int + 3 best exp games to total score.

@Robert: I'm not sure if I will manage to organize cheerleaders.
Concernig the rules: I think it's better to play more than one session, it could make the tourny a bit more interessting and at least it gives the possibilety to chat with the other sweepers in between (and if we come together for a tourny we should also MEET and not just sit some hours in the same room and sweep).
The idea of the first-to session was Rodrigos, he suggested that last year when I first tried to organize a tourny. And I like the idea that the participants can arrive and play a first (and perhaps not so important) session to get used to the computers and enviroment befor we play the main sessions.
BTW Everyone can (and is asked to) take his/her own mouse with him/her.
But if you have good suggestions for the rules let us know.

@Elmar: Als Optimist muss ich auf die Wette eingehen. Ich glaube fest an ihre Ankunft. Und mein Wetteinsatz ist der eine Rubel, den ich in Budapest von Roman erhalten habe. Hältst Du dagegen? Ach ja, aber Du musst am 13. August in Wien sein, um zu überprüfen, wer die Wette gewonnen hat

Hello fellow-sweepers,

this time I will be more cautious.
Oliver Scheer and Robert Benditz have bought tickets to get to the minesweeper tournament in vienna on 13th of August. We may arrive on the 10th and leave on the 14th.
@all: hope this will encourage some of you to book your flights as well.
@German sweepers: airberlin.com 147€ for each
@Christoph Marx: We gotta talk about the rules, this first-to-finish thingy is not very thrilling. And please make sure there will be some groupies who are cheering at us all the time like in Budapest.

Happy sweeping!

I think Christoph actually meant to ask what does the word "interpolation" has to do with 3BV variation.

@Dmitriy: I don't know if you'll find it in the web. I think it was one of the Germans to mention this range but I'm not sure. But I know that I've heard of it from anywhere befor because I rememberd that there is such a range when we were talking about the 3BV limits and the 3BV limits of the clone. I took the two mins off to calc the range and posted here together with a short describtion for Detrusor how he could calc the clone-3BV limits.

BTW
@Detrusor: After you demonstrated for a tourny in Summer, will you come to Vienna?

I read Stephens guessing and desided to do my research about the real ranges. Most of all, "That the mine-shift varies the 3BV in the range +/-25 is known for years", but, you know, I never saw these results on any site. If they are exist, please, give me a link then.

@Dmitriy: What do you mean by 'interpolation research'? What has that to do with interpolation? That the mine-shift varies the 3BV in the range +/-25 is known for years. Last year it was talked about that here when the 3BV-limit discussion was going on.

@Arjadre: The 3bv doesn't change when you load a saved board, I think. It stays the same as the board that was there before.(at least that's what I've been told ^_^) That happened to me as well, and I had made sure that I hadn't clicked on a mine on my first click.

@Iguana: Grr...just when I thought I had caught up to you on intermediate time, you beat your record? Well, congrats! (not going to planete-demineur today, no time)

@Everybody: 3BV may be changed from -24 to +24. I did the nice research of this interesting gameplay situation. I would not write everything here, 'cos it is quite a big text, supplied with images, so, I just put here a link:

Comments:  

it's not a bug. i'm guessing the 3bv of the board replayed is plus or minus 10 (likely plus considering 122 3bv is on the lower end). anyways the reason the 3bv is different is because when you replayed the video to the end, and entered cheat mode then took your first click that first click was on a mine. this click made the mine move somewhere else, changing the 3bv of the board (try replaying the video again, entering cheat mode, and using the "show mines" option. make sure you don't hit a mine on the first click and your 3bv will be the same.

I just got my second sub-100: a 97.10, 3bv 122, on the clone. I saved the board so I could replay it, but when I replay it (the board, not the video), the 3bv shown is the same as the 3bv of the last game I have played, instead of 122. Has anyone else noticed this bug?

@Elmar and the the others, interested in Rubik cube: Just looked at the links on Stephan's Solitair site and saw that he has a link to a Rubik cube site. The actual unofficial WR is 12,11s by a Japanese. Here's the link to the site:
http://www.speedcubing.com/
There are also links to official sites for Rubik cube. I also have a Rubik cube, but I don't know how to finish.

2.40 ----> 2.48 3BV/s

Comments:  

Just wanted to say that I got two excellent results on expert recently: a 67 some days ago (my second ever sub-70) and today a new 3BV/s record of 2.48: a 90.00 on a 221 3BV board. Both can be downloaded below:

http://www.geocities.com/minesweeperclone/rodrigo67.zip
http://www.geocities.com/minesweeperclone/rodrigo248.zip

The sad thing is that my total 3BV/s is now
4.25 + 3.26 + 2.48 = 9.99

Would have been nice to brake to 10 3BV/s barrier... but ok, anyway.

Happy sweeping everyone!!
