I realize that this thread was probably done before, but this thing happened…
This is what happened: http://zoostation.8m.com/images/buscaminas.jpg
I was playing Expert mode (my previous record was 103) and i was on fire (literally)… suddenly i finished the board and the score appeared… 85!!
Since that record I haven’t made less than a hundred (well, it has only been a few hours since that happened).
Well, my records are:
Begginer: 6
Intermediate: 31
Expert: 85
What are yours?
Wow, that amazes me.
My best times are:
Beginner: 12
Intermediate: 72
Expert: 284
Ye gods. How is that possible?
I don’t play Minesweeper much anymore, but I do recall my times improving greatly when I realized you don’t have to flag all the boxes you think are mines. As long as you expose all the ones the aren’t mines, the game will count it.
that’s correct, if you see the bottom right part of the picture where there are a lot of mines gathered, I didn’t flag them all (if i did, i would have wasted a lot of time)
YOU LOSERS!!
I am the King of Minesweeper! Come by my house and you will see on my computer that I have completed the Expert level in–get this–ONE SECOND.
Bwaaaaahaaaa!!
(My computer is really whack, and for some reason the clock never started–I just played happily along, and when it said I had the fastest time, I looked at the clock and it said 1 second. Cool, eh?)
7, 31, 87. I got the first 87 when I had barely ever scored under 100, but I’ve never been able to beat it. These days if I finish a game of expert and I take longer than 120 seconds I count it a failure. The goal is to beat 100 every time.
8, 51, and I don’t even remember the last time I beat expert.
2, 24, and 81. Not recently, but back in school when I had too much time.
You beat Expert in 85 seconds but can’t spell “beginner”? What are you, some kind of idiot savant?
IIRC(might be some other windows game) theres actually an easter egg in mine sweeper that stops the clock. It won’t show up as a score though.
As I recall, it was something like Ctrl+Alt+XYZZY. This didn’t stop the clock, but, when you moved your mouse over a tile with a bomb underneath, in the top left corner of your desktop, 1 single pixel would change color. This way you could slowly check each tile before clicking and achieve very low scores. This was using Win95.
Um, or maybe the OP just misspelled a word?

I’m not a grammar nazi… some of my best friends are misspellers… and any day now I’m going to shave 150 seconds off that expert time.

Damn, and I thought those were good.
There are a few minesweeper threads here on the board that outline the various ways to get illegitimate scores entered in the “Best Times” in Minesweeper. Search MPSIMS for “minesweeper” in the thread title if you’re interested in taking all the fun out of the game.

pathetic…
Woo. 842.
Okay, so I’ve never played Minesweeper before. But I finished!
By the way, I’m amazed, it should go without saying.
