  1. My best score on beginner is 8 seconds and i firmly believe anyone who gets less than 3 seconds is cheating since it is virtually impossible to even click that fast, also if someone gets one second they obviously beat it by clicking once thus implying they changed the height and length of the map.

  3. I’m a minesweeper addict. Currently since my oldest child deleted all my best scores off last month when I was teaching him how to play, I’m at
    Beginner 7 seconds
    Intermediate 48 seconds
    Advanced 186 seconds

    I’m forgetting all about times though. Now I’m going for percentage wins on advanced. I’ve always had a 1% 2% win ratio. I just completed a tortuous accelarated upper division business economics course for a client, and suddenly my minesweeper skills improved and I saw three new patterns in advanced. I’ve improved my win ratio on advanced to 6% from 3% last week, and am considering clearing all my scores out to start the advanced out fresh and see how high I can push my win percentage on advanced.

    Did get the first click clears the board in advanced once in highschool over a decade ago, and a couple times for the other levels.

    lol, luvs the minesweeper minesweeper minesweeper!

  4. Here are some patterns to recognize:

    x = bomb o = open ? = unknown | = wall

    121 1221 232 |111 |112
    xox oxxo xxx ??o ??x

    the first 3 work anywhere in a “wall”

    the “|” in the second two represents the end of the board or a corner. remember, you can subtract the number of mines touching a square from the number in the square to create these simple patterns and all of them still work. Also, be careful that no other mines are touching any of these squares potentially augmenting their values.

    ex.
    |x1o becomes:
    |222 |112
    so: |??x

  5. My patterns didn’t post correctly here they are in vertical orientation:

    1x
    2o
    1x

    1o
    2x
    2x
    1o

    2x
    3x
    2x

    __
    1?
    1?
    1o

    __
    1?
    1?
    2x

    ex.
    __
    x2
    12
    o2
    becomes:
    _
    1
    1
    2
    so:
    ___
    x2?
    12?
    o2x
