@kamil: the time trial option in viennasweeper is the same which was used in last year#s vienna tournament (15beg 6int 2exp). on arbiter and clone you can't stop the time like that (at least it isn't that easy). |

just got a 1.766 on 3BV=2 beginner on viennasweeper. ![]() ![]() @christoph: viennasweeper worked great so far. only 2 things that are a little strange: while replaying a finished board the clicks/second counters stay at 0.00 and it would be nice if the replay files were named realtime+1 (i'm simply not used to that so far). i really like the 10beg and time-trial option ![]() you did some great programming work with vienna sweeper, christoph. not just because of my 1.766 i hope that viennasweeper will be accepted for records. |

I just uploaded a beta test version of Vienna Sweeper. It's a very basic version that supports not really anything else than playing and videos. However - it would be great to get some comments on these basic things. I plan to add some history tools somewhen later but first I'm gonna get some sleep ![]() |

@Ronny: Try this method: Modify your purposes to similar ones: "At this session I should finish as many exp games, as possible" or "If I get below 90, it's good" or "if my speed exceeds 1,8 3BV/s, it's ok". When you finish a game with these criteria, it will give you a kind of success emotion, and helps you to be motivated. Nowadays I sit down to play with the aim: I should finish a game below 85 or below 22. Try this method, and it may work. And never forget, if you buy a ticket, you can get on the train with that donkey, as well ![]() ![]() |

@Gergő: You seem to be on a fast train and I'm on a donkey right now. It's indeed not so strange that that with your NF 3BV/s you should get a 10% faster NF expert time than mine, so a low 70 would be normal and high 60 would only need some luck, but would still not be extremely lucky. BTW, I haven't solved an expert board since my 79. I sort of lost the will to play a lot and improve since I'm world ranked. ![]() |

@Kamil: Not bad, I've solved only 6 sub140 boards in 6 months. ![]() Try playing some sub140 boards in cheat mode, record them with Camtasia and analyze how you blast them...if it's mainly forced guesses, then you can't help it. If it are unforced guesses, you might take too much risk with calculated guesses (for example 75%-25% guesses often work out bad on low 3BV boards). If it are pattern errors, you might need to work on you high mine density patterns (3's,4's,5's,6's) |

Tommy, Traian, Andi and I did meet together today and played the austrian winter championship. We tried a new tournament system. In short words: We played some short sessions. After each points were distributed over the players (in four categories). Step by step the ones with the viewest points droped out til we had a winner: Tommy is again austrian minesweeper champion. 2nd Christoph Nikolaus 3rd Traian Nitu 4th Andreas Marx I very much fancy this system to be played at the world championship - we all enjoyed it very much and it has a lot of good sideeffect. However I'll write more about it whem I'm less tired. |

@Gergő: To be honest, I'm 99% sure I'll stop sweeping months before the event, because I feel that playing minesweeper is already giving me hand/neck/shoulder problems again (like it also did in 2003) and if that gets too bad it can cost me my job, because I also need to work with computers 8 hours per day (I'm a programmer). So, I simply don't want to risk that for a computer game, even not for a fun game like minesweeper. With other words, only if I'll be stupid enough to still play sweeper around September, I might visit Vienna, but if I have already quit I won't come, because I know I wouldn't be able to resist the temptation to start playing again........once a minesweeper addict, always a minesweeper addict. ![]() |

@Gergő: Wow at the 67! That really must have been an insane 114 3BV board and I understand it when you say that you don't want to accept it as your PB. Back in 2003 I had a 94s record and improved it to 81s on an insanely easy board (I can now solve it sub70 as well). Despite the fact that I liked it a lot when I got it, it also was the last minesweeper game that I played till 2007, because the gap was so extremely demotivating that I didn't even bother trying and break it. |

Definitely the most unexpected record so far. Tonight I was getting so frustrated of having blasted over 50 boards with >60% solved without solving 1. Therefor I decided that I needed a record to ease my mind and so I choose the easiest one: my NF IOE on intermediate. Having done that in about 10 minutes, I was thinking....let's do the same on expert. 10 minutes later I got a pop-up and so I thought I must have had broken my IOE record on expert. To my surprise the pop-up said I had broken my Time and RQP record instead. Really strange because I was only concentrating on having full control and not blasting and not 1 second on my speed ![]() As a bonus my non-flag sum (1+18+83) is now better than my flag sum (3+21+80), so I'm officially a non-flagger now. ![]() |

I hadn't played Intermediate for about 2 months but decided to warm-up for expert for 5 minutes on intermediate tonight. Within 3 minutes I broke both my intermediate overall IOS and RQP records. FL IOS=1,30013 -> NF IOS=1,30556 FL RQP=8,923 -> NF RQP=8,41 Time=21,014 (3BV=50, overall 2nd best time) Funny how I spend dozens of hours of playing intermediate to get those records and now break them within 5 minutes. ![]() Maybe, I should try to get that 17s instead of sub80 on expert. ![]() |

Yeah, guessing sucks. I almost never finish boards with a good time in which I had to guess. Even if I guess right, it slows me down afterwards and it ruins my concentration. |

less 3bv = more mines next to each other, so more guessings. That's why I never solved sub120 3bv board ( 1 time I made mistake 116/117 @ 49NF, but it doesnt change the fact that these boards are really hard to solve). The easiest board ever what I saw, was 105 3BV solved in 21s in UPK by Manu, after 3 times watched I got 37NF 1st try in UPK ![]() |

@Kamil: Problem with low 3BV boards is that you have to change gear constantly, which ruins you 3BV/s. If I look at your vids, you're doing best on boards where you can move with a constant speed and those boards normally have >160 3BV. |

Haha, -14s would be a little too much improvement in 1 game, I quess. ![]() BTW, the ending wasn't possible without 2 guesses and I had already lost 5 extra seconds between 131 and 132 hoping to find an opening in the impossible maze. Anyway, I does show I can potentially get a sub80 with a little more luck in the end. ![]() |

@Ryan: i didn't mean to impose anything on you ![]() ![]() KAmil, welcome to Rilianworld!! Btw Elmar that is an interesting topic Rilian's genius brings up... how do you know which is the correct time? or the correct way to round a minesweeper time for that matter? IMHO the correct way would be truncation... i.e. if someone finishes a game at 51.9 (clone time) he/she finished it in the 51st second,then the score should be 51. If one finishes a game at 52.0 (clone time), it was finished in the 52nd second, hence the score 52. That would be true for any (sensed) number of nines ... for example 51.999999 (if one hypotetically could measure time with that accuracy) would still be a 51 since the 51st second it's not over yet... how does the clone react in such cases? |

Hi Joni: I can imagine the problems for people who have developed such styles. I think the game should at least have enough options to allow it to emulate the way that the original minesweeper works, but then also have other options - I'm not too afraid of diversity ;-) |

nice to hear you're going back home a bit more often damien ![]() @ryan/hi-games: the fact that the squares open on the `button push' instead of the `button release' is quite irritating ... people have developped their styles of play based on that (see Jon Simonsen for example)... i think your game should comply too. grats to the people making the world rankings ![]() @ronny: try playing not thinking about finishing games or anything related to minesweeper... just relax and let your thoughts wander freely...

hi kamil...just want to remind you that 0.34 is a cheat version of MSX and is not an official version. curtis still has it on his site because it was the first version he released (before he came to this website and realised it was cheating). btw, curtis noticed the timer was a little different on MSX 0.34 about a week after he announced it in the guestbook 4 years ago. |

@Tibor: I do not have the chance to reach your 75 exp. First of all I must learn how to flag, and shouldn't forget NF style, at least on int. It would be very hard. I think, with NF it would be much harder to get sub 70 due to the higher probability of misclicks. I must work very hard to improve, as now expert comes... @Ronny: Never mind! Remember that I was not able to beat my 21 for a long time, and some days it seem that I will never be WR. Just play, and the day (and the board) will come soon, when you will be much better than before. If somebody said that I would reach 16s on int in few days, I would surely consider him as a mad, or as a drunk...

I was fast on Saturday and started to get good hopes, but on Sunday i was 0,3 3BV/s slower on every single map again. And I still only solve 1 board per 3 hours, so that doesn't help either. ![]() |
