He thinks there's a spot on the board you can cilck to get a one click boardf for beginner every time. :XD:

Yeah, it's luck. You can easily disprove that theory in 81 very quick games (click every spot once...)

But! Where you click still makes a difference, because of how mines are revealed. It's statistically better to click a corner than a side, and a side than the center (but the differences aren't that big).

I think minesweeper is conspiring against me... I 've gotten 32 seconds 3 times so far. :undecided:

EDIT: 27! :laugh: Now on to expert....

Do you mean 32 seconds for beginner of intermediate? I got the seemingly customary 4 second beginner thing, but I have no idea how you might get 27 seconds on intermediate. :shocked:

27 needs practice, nice coordination and a fairly good board. When I was at my best in my last year of college I could usually get below 27 once a session.

18 on the other hand, which I only achieved once... I still don't know how I did that  :cool:

I can usually get somewhere around 27, but there's a slight difference, you are talking about intermediate, I'm talking about beginner :XD:. The only time I really practice alot is in programming class. I get done with my work before everyone else. IT IS AWESOME! Basically, I go to school, and play videogames for about an hour, on alot of the days.

Are there any strategies for minesweeper? I'm horrible at it.
