I. Just. Played. Accuracy. On. Cheat. Mode.


AND GOT A 12.85!!!!!!!!! On a 32!!!! WTF???? Now, if I just convert that into a REAL time I also just got 15.72 on a 34, 14.07 on a 35! And my clock is not slow! My suspicions were true! I'M NOT PLAYING ENOUGH!

Well, that's exactly why! For you throuput and IOE would be pretty much the same.
Using througput would make your solving efficiency comparable with mine or badgers for example. ;-)

@ Elmar: Nah. IOE is good. In fact for me, throughput etc. doesn't mean much for me because I rarely waste clicks. But I'm more interested in IOE than throughput.

@schu: I'd recommend using throughput (and alternatively precision) instead of IOE for this. IOE alone just doesnt tell you much.

Hi Gergely, some of us have actually talked about (and used an emulation of) vista minesweeper before. It's a nice UI I agree. I think there are/were 2 problems though:

1. We don't know what exactly the final release will be yet
2. Vistamine allows you to replay (UPK) games and all first clicks are openings I think. This makes it useless for our rankings, and if we aren't using it for rankings, why bother with a skin?

I'm trying to get the IMC to allow custom skins, partly for things like no numbers (http://www.planete-demineur.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=822) and also for colour-blind-friendly skins for Joni, Elmar and anyone else with some colour-blindness. Also, it'd be great fun, and maybe someone could develop a skin that is even easier on the eyes than the XP skin, which would be great I think, (maybe vista is, hard to tell).

I think Rodrigo had a good look at that emulation, maybe he's making a skin for it??

@ Joni: oops well I'll make it up to him now then

Gabriel de Tarragon and I think that a new index for efficiency should be made:, being (time-1)/IOE. We thought about IOE*3BV/s, but that would heavily favour high 3BV boards, but the first one is more balanced.

the reason for this is, well, who cares that I can get a 1.157 IOE (or whatever) but have to take >100 seconds to do it?

I'm not saying IOE should be abandoned or something, it's still an indicator of style. I just think this index would be interesting to compare among good players, like on the clone rankings. It'd be nice to see that on the clone list of standard indices maybe too. Discussion is linked.

In related news, I got a 66 at on a 170 sometimes yesterday, which is my second best score for that index (my 58 is first and my 59 is third, they're both at .788 IOE). It's a good game, it's on the linked thread.

Hello!
I'd like to ask the programmers of the different versions: How much time would it take to make the clone/arbiter/viennasweeper look like Vista minesweeper?

Just tried a bit of flagging for fun. I s*ck at it but I still managed to finish 6 games in 15 minutes. I've definitely never achieved that before! They were lousy times, however, even though I was doing my best to go as fast as I could:

98, 77, 76, 94, 80, 84....

It makes me wonder how on earth I ever got down to 61 seconds with flags!

This weel I did a little sweeping - I finished a handfull of intermediate games and managed a 19, and finished 1 expert game. The expert game was a 67 on a 166 3bv board, which equalled my bestever. Not bad since I havent played expert for months!!

I wish I still had time to play!!!!

Nice Damien, I still only have one sub-3 game that is on a sup-10 board, and that is my former NF record of 2,96 on a 10 board. I almost achieved a sub-3 second game on a very easy 12 board, but I butchered my shot at it due to a cold hand and ended up with 3,11 seconds instead on that board.

I have finally achieved my final beginner goal, a sup-7! I have no more goals that I need to chase for this mode, and can now play beginner for leisure. Some statistics:

*This game came after 3,000+ sup4's
*350 of these are sup5's
*20 of these are sup6's

Tam last 18788th beg game: Time: 4,81 3BV: 28 3BV/s: 7,34 "Flag" Rank: 3031st time 1st 3BV/s ( RPI: 91.93 IOS: n/a RQP: 0.65 )

I was able to attain it before 20,000 games! I... AM... EUPHORIC!!!!! 4th person ever to achieve this feat, YEAH!

@Joni: I don't play expert too much for the exact same reason! I tend to blast too much because I habitually guess when I am stuck (a very bad habit, by the way) and I always get frustrated when I blast a near-record. And when I play safe and try to apply patterns, it takes me LONG to finish a game. Oh well... just gotta work on my patience and patterns. I average about 2-3 expert games per hour on a normal playing session.

Comments:  

Hehe, I don't ever play supersafe unless I haven't finished one and I'm 90% through a board. But I still keep getting sup-70s
And I think unforced guesses are the key to going fast tbh. If you have a big wall of mines I always guess on the other side rather than try to go round.
But it's not my best, I have a 61 (.99) from my winmine days. I must say, it's nice to get accurate decimal points at last (about half my winmine games were recorded as XX.99). Good luck with OMB!

well looks like we're on the same track there, I've finished 6 expert games in four days . That with all the good will to click carefully, not to make unforced guesses etc etc. How can Schu average 10/hour is beyond me. And the fact they're few doesn't mean at all they're fast. Sunday, I was so desperate to finish a game before I ended the session, that after about half an hour of trying to play supersafe I managed a 98 . I think my hated mouse is to blame for a part of the blasts, but I think it's also responsable for my good intermediate results. I don't think I would have gotten a 15 with another one, though it has to be said that that board was a really really nice one , perfectly suited for me.

Congratulations on your "1" , you can always better your intermediate later

I was about to send this, wen I saw your other post. Did you just match your record too ?

Heh, joni, sounds a lot like what I did (except I didn't get a 15 on Int ). I'm playing lots more expert now though, and it looks like playing relaxed, not clicking too hard and hyper-flagging is working for me. I haven't finished a game yet though

As for E = m^4 c, we know that E = m c^2, therefore m^3 = c, therefore m = c^1/3 = 3x10^8 ^ 1/3 = 669.4 (presumably m/s). That's a very good mouse speed

Comments:  

after about a month of very poor expert sweeping (but good intermediate), I started to get back into a good expert form. A couple of days ago, I got my second 63 (second best time at that time). Today I blasted an est 59 at 121/133, and then a nice 118 board after 43 secs, est 56. I am trying to play as carefully as I can, but I still find a way to make some stupid errors on this low3BV boards .
Finally I managed to finish a board and I matched my 61 . Funny that now my four best times 61x2 and 63x2 are all on 14x boards .

VC: EM4C, could it be that "E=m^4 * c"???

8.5 month since my last record. oh, almost forgot how good this feels!

-4.5 secs: biggest jump since I went sub70 5 years ago!

Schu, could you plz be a darling and upload this to you.tube (and while you're at it, change the text to 2nd and 6th respectively)?

AH, this is the (almost) perfect game I always dreamed about.

I've been talking to one of the people in charge of that twin galaxies website (the video game record ranking site that governs what gets into the Guinness book of records) and he's been discussing with his peers about whether minesweeper should be included. He seems to think we have a good case for inclusion, or at least a better one. I'll let let you all know how it goes.

Thanks for posting there Tommy and Cowman!

Holy crap.. I just encontered my first '8' on a beginner board. I have not seen this before in the 18000+ games that I have played on Arbiter. Blasted it on the second click, though, and I couldn't save a video because I F2 too fast.

New beginner nonflag 3bv/s record: 2,56 on an 8 board. A very well played game in my opinion with only one guess at the bottom, which I nailed down without any hesitation.

@ Thomas:



I will assist your feelings. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRGH GOOOOORRGH That made me feel very ill. There would have been one forced guess at the bottom (and the density was very awkward, of the form:
1 M 1
? ? ?
But man, I feel your pain. It certainly puts my failed 56 into perspective...

Meanwhile, I'm getting very bad times, up in the high 70s (ugh, 1/2 minute difference), my new mouse has a much higher resistance for clicking.

what are the density records? I just won a 77-mine int board, non-flagging... I'm playing on a touchpad so I'm not bothering to flag.

My record goes from 70 to 77 mines. (70 was flagging.)

Just watch the vid.
Anyone who dislikes reading swear words in public places may be grateful for the fact that I am too shocked to actually feel bad.
This sucks more than anything I have ever expierienced playing this game.

Watch the vid and you will understand.

"This was the worlds first time under 10 real-time seconds (timer starts at 1, not 0) except for a time ruled out because it was unintentionally using an exploit in the original minesweeper game."

eh? What was wrong with Dion's 10?? First I ever heard there being a problem!

And, of course, it may be the case that Jake's a fake. Personally I believe him :P

well, my youtube channel is doing well, my vids collectively have gotten over 20,000 views, mainly thanks to Dions 38 getting over 14,000 views, 14 ratings (it's only at 4 stars out of 5 though ) and 19 favorites!

Most of the rest have a few hundred views, with Olis 39 getting close to 1000 views.

Nope, on a 14x I think :D
And now I got a 53!
on a 127, but then again, when I got 55 on 118 I got that crazy 54 series soon :D
I have the feeling that that time was pretty overdue :D
also, considering christoph LCed a 53 on a 50:50, this makes me feel a lot better ;)
I think I'll get a better time fairly soon though, I SecLCed a 52 already ;)

What I wanted to write earlier was that I missed the chance to play drunk this morning. I came back home from a party, still almost totally focussed but totally relaxed, and sensing total pwnage potential. I as good as knew I would get a highscore would I have played.
But my parents didnt allow me. I can't wait to be 18... :P

BTW, VC=SEPT
Seventh? Or septic?

@Dennis: Good to hear from you again. Yeah, it seems we're both stuck on that high-3BV/s-but-no-sub50 wave . I'll probably keep on playing just a bit until I get a sub50 (and by then I find another excuse), even if it's not more than half an hour every month or two sometimes.

Getting this 52 showed me I still have some skills left, even though I have only finished 28 expert games this year (and that's what I usually play)

I'll try to keep my name on the AR as well - how far am I from being the one with the longest streak? It's always fun having a little national competition on the AR as well - I think it's been some time since I was last the best placed Danish player
