Beg: 1 sec (WR, Yay!)
Int: 21 sec
Exp: 86 sec (poor)

I did get 14 seconds on Intermediate, but it was glitched (although not my fault).

I got 25 seconds on Intermediate on my laptop mouse, too bad I didn't have a real mouse.
If anyone has any serious prayer requests please PM me. Thx.

expert depends so much on luck, you can click randomly 5-6 times and each time open a good portion of fields without mines and then you already solved half of it. sometimes you'll get 3 clicks and 4th will end up with a mine.
only time i remember is beginner 5sec and expert 150-160.

wrong. there are patterns in expert that are determined by your actions. notice how you never hit a mine with your first click. even if you open up a huge area whether you complete it quickly or not depends mainly on skill.

notice how i get on mine from first click, thus your theory is dead.

patterns are determined when u press new game or whtaever it is. dont believe me? type in xyzzy and hold shift for one second. top left pixel of your screen will turn black if you're mousing over a bomb.

you can most definitely click a bomb first

There's different versions of mine sweeper. With the standard version the mine format has nothing to do with your own course of action, so you can and often will hit a mine with your first click. There are several modified versions, however.

I played minesweeper almost daily for 4-5 years. I should be better by now, but I'm not.

the first milestone is beating expert. the second milestone is beating expert <100. the third milestone is beating all 3 with a combined time <100. the greatest milestone would probably be not caring in the first place, but that is not a possibility for us.

When i was a beginner i thought it was a game for the intelligent. Then i began to understand the mine locations and started thinking it was a game of speed. Now i'm pretty sure that just having pure speed isn't enough. To be great you have to maximize the effectiveness of every one of your clicks. I used to flag nearly all of the mines but now i avoid about 25 of them. The guy in the video probably avoids 70% of them.

The cool thing is that video is currently the world's fastest time and it was set in april of 07... last month. Much like starcraft, minesweeper is a game so deep that people are still finding ways to improve their game.

I have reached that milestone... was there the first time I opened minesweeper and went "ahhh... sif bother!"
I really wanted a bigger opponent, like Nate Marquardt, or King Neptune, or Zeus, or Zeus and Fedor, or Fedor on Zeus's shoulders, and they can both punch but only Zeus can kick.
