LOL
that's really heartbreaking, especially since you spent over 8 minutes on it. I hope you beat it someday.

Well, even with good technique, there are still always a few spots that you will always need to guess on in minesweeper.

oh wow, now that I actually look at it, it's impossible to tell which one was the mine. That's bullshit =/

Can't you trial and error with the flags on the last two squares...so you don't have to actually commit to any square?

I don't think that works, I guess it only finishes the game if there are only X fields unclicked, where X is the number of mines. The flags are merely to help you not forget where the mines are.

Such situatons suck, ya. Had a few already and I didn't exactly play a lot of minesweeper...
But at least it was clear that you can only guess where the mine is. I once also had a situation where about 4-6 connected fields were untouched and I spent quite a while figuring out if it is solvable or not... It wasn't TT
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

I was wondering the same thing. It'd be a good way to get out of this, potentially.

Otherwise, that is a sad situation to be in.

yes, but the game will never end if you don't commit. these sort of 50/50 guess situations happen way too often in expert mode...only way around it is to start winning more :/

Nope, there's nothing you can do in that situation other than flip a coin and hope. It happens relatively frequently at the end of expert games, and is pretty annoying even when you've beaten the game regularly and only take 3-4 minutes rather than 8.
