u know that there are minesweeper cheats?

-After starting the game, type xyzzy and press Shift and Enter at the same time.
-Move the mouse over the playing area and keep your eye on the upper left corner of the Windows desktop.
-A white pixel will appear when the mouse pointer is over a safe square, and turn dark when the mouse is over a mine.

I used to be a Minesweeper junkie too! I must say your results are very good - you’re pretty good with those speedy fingers.

It’s been years since I’ve touched it but I remember mine being in the region of 8s, 47s and definitely more than 100s.

You gonna keep beating your own record still?

Brings back memories….

Congratulation!

I get frustrated whenever I play this game ’cause I always get blown.

whooo. I don’t have a record on the Expert one. I am not that good at it. I can’t win it because there is some situations where I can only guess and I’m soo unlucky.

On a side note, do you know that the italian version of Minesweeper used to be “Mine Field”, then for some (dumb) reason they changed the name to “flowered lawn” (if I’m translating it correctly).
The dumb thing is that some italian companies still build mines so the MS politically correctness is completely stupid here.

I haven’t played for a while but I think my Expert record is 129 (or 159). Not sure …

I haven’t played for 7-8 years, but I reached:

Beginner - 3 seconds
Intermediate - 19 seconds
Expert - 79 seconds

Then I thought that I was the best. Wrong. World records are simply amazing, and only my intermediate time was remarkable - but anyway far from the best (12 seconds).

Thanks to everyone!

gigi: You’re good! I’ve seen world records as well and I really wonder how those people do it!
