or i have no life. prolly the second. the 180 was based on like my 40th game that day, where I didnt think at all, was flying on patterns. the first 39, needless to say, got me killed.

Thanks.

I'm almost ashamed of that time though. I remember that when I had gotten that time, I had already been playing minesweeper for 3 1/2 hours already.

Hey, I said I was addicted......

Beginner: 12 seconds
Intermediate: 101 seconds
Expert: I haven't completed one at this level yet. There are times when you rely on luck to click the correct square, since you don't know for sure which one has the mine.

I used to be way into minesweeper. Unfortunately, I can't recall any of my times. They were average, nothing too great, except on beginner, one time I actually beat it in two or three clicks, with something like one or two seconds as the time. Pure dumb luck.

My previous best time was about 110, but on that particular occasion I probably had luck on my side, and everything just turned out perfectly. I wasn't even thinking actually, in fact I sort of zoned out and only realised how fast I was going when I actually finished it.

It's just so damn funny to watch all the boxes disappear in one click and you're not even using a code or anything. :D

Well, that six is crazy good. I think I got a seven once, and before that I had like a 13. 40 or so sounds right for intermediate, I'm clueless about expert. The comp this was on is in storage. Here, why don't I play a game now?
