I just improved Grapes by 16 :-) that's nearly 100 points in 2 days - not bad! actually quite a bit more. I don't say everything here you know :) yesterday's total was 123 moves in 5 levels oops sorry 6 levels three of them were improved by 2 or less though... the records'll sure be a nasty shock... I wonder if I'll have any non-reds?! (I just hope I'll beat Jyrki in every level ;-) ) gotta go to watch TV. swimming world champs... goodbye * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks Hi brickmaster Hi Nolan if you're up already ;-) (I'll optimize ToeTT next... what a nasty level...) when I first solved it, I thought it couldn't go under 500, that Alan had submitted an extra-long level ;-) I guess TTT is pretty hard to optimize. Who knows how many unintended shortcuts it has ... well, no one knows... but you can make a better guess than anyone else... okay, I'm going to use an opting shortcut... I'll trust that my first 83 moves are optimal and only work from that on :p after the competition it will be more obvious which levels have nice shortcuts not rotten pieces :p 1 green, 11 whites, 6 yellow, 6 blue and 24 reds... sounds about right?! and not Schnappi I think there's a longcut to schnappi... ;-) longcut to San too... remember my legendary solution there, optimized to 925? ;-) maybe we should design a level where the winner is the player who needs most moves ... must have a lot of traps ;-) lol that won't be easy to do... Jyrki figured maverick was that sort of level :p you could also use a lot of glue and disallow cyclic moves yes... although it would be hard to tell the computer exactly what qualifies as cyclic move... I guess just let Alan optimize various different paths and the slowest one wins :p My San should win a big prize in such a comp :) I guess I never find good paths in levels >200... (at least they're >200 for me... perhaps not all others) no shortcut to quantum leap either ;-) i improved QL last night... I haven't touched it since January... how many levels have both of you solved? 46 I just found a way to do ToeTT 1 move slower :p 41 nothing new this month me neither... schnappi was feb 25 ;-) (I sent my 67% scores on feb 24...) btw Nolan will you be doing the intermediate top4 stats again? that's 250 points difference - very hard to compensate possible though, given my many deep reds... :'( yes and diaries i should update the current b5 top 4 but have been lazy ;-p well you just copy from my site ;-) I'm now 4 moves ahead in ToeTT do you think it is possible to do the top4 stats automatically by adding some routines in brkstat ? would need to get the names somehow ... also it might get confused with the ties... the current order in case of ties is by date of reaching which doesn't show up in brk files I do have a text file with the names and file numbers which are listed in the out.txt files yeah the b 4/5 top 4 have put the first palyer to get the level 1st, no step ordering not that there were too many ties oh yeah i guess brkstat already knows name sfor the top 25 page heh it's been so long since i wrote it :-p heading out well top4 pages use different versions of the names... "Marco&Sampsa" rather than "Marco Roger Graf & Sampsa Lahtonen" I guess date of reaching problem could be resolved by automatically assuming any old top4 entry was there first, and checking the date of latest brk file for new entries... don't know how much coding that would be in whatever language you're using though I'll be gone for a while too... back. still working :-( so am I... on toe-tac-tic I think I'm now 7 moves ahead... not totally sure as the position is a bit different... now apparently 10 mvs ahead... finished with -18... hoped a lot more :( * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: CGI:IRC (EOF)) * brickmaster (14852012@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: CGI:IRC (EOF)) * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks * tom (tom@m2k2-5CFDE1EE.access.telenet.be) has joined #bricks * tom is now known as Tommy just testing.. * Tommy (tom@m2k2-5CFDE1EE.access.telenet.be) Quit (Quit: using sirc version 2.211+KSIRC/1.3.12) * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks * brickmaster (3e687060@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks * brickmaster (3e687060@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks Session Time: Fri Mar 30 00:00:00 2007 * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks * brickmaster (14852012@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks * brickmaster (14852012@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks Good afternoon Nolan :p I got the lines. 325 :) * brickmaster (14852012@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks Hi brickmaster hello ! I made a new record in bsh lines per comp. 325 I guess I'll get some more during last couple of days... 333 would be a neat score such as I like to make :p I'm playing big smiling face at the moment OK, but it's only 1 and a half day ;-) 1½ days easily enough for 8 lines ;-) i've improved 20 levels since 67% now... me only 16 but many more lines ;-) if you switch after every move to another level you could generated hundreds of lines yes... you could improve every level every day ;-) for a maximum total of 4369 lines... the one record no one would ever break ;-) I'm curious about the improvements, from the forum it looks like many players haven't played much this month so those haven't said anything have become favourites ;-) maybe there are some surprises ... Wilson? Or Grace? IIRC Wilson said he did badly this month perhaps Robert? Robert had only 3 levels, I don't think that he will be somewhere at the top yes, that's why it would be a surprise ;-) he's not that bad at solving you know... I bet he never even touched Salambo though... he hates that type of levels... i barely tried it myself it's evil. So many clues, so many ways to *nearly* get 'em packed... I guess it would be much harder if the packing area wasn't rectangular ;-) reverse design is always nice ... that's only 'cos you didn't have to try and solve it... actually, rectangularity makes it even harder as it enables more possible wrong packings. btw, Cristian also didn't send solutions so far will you count his Salambo even if he doesn't send in? at this point the level i've gone the longest without improvement is my own stupid expansion no change since jan 18 I haven't improved maverick since jan 1 ;-) i improved it this month, cuz i suck in b5 you finished with werft on day 4 lol I guess I'm +1 in maverick... improved big smiling face by 32... whole new path :) since it's new path I'll have to play it again... but perhaps I'll leave that tomorrow so that's 1 line more :p I thought there is only one path ... you move the master over the traps on the bottom ;-) well the master moves the same way but the packing's totally different all the way through Jyrki actually wondered if the 3x1 near the bottom is a new type of mystery brick (disguised hover...) improved the end of bsf by further 1 move :) I really really hope there's just one path to lemmings... can you check who's got 157 in Tempus? not here, only at home I wonder if one could make cool designs with master ankh...? master keystone not ankh ;-) That would only work if you mustn't convert it. Otherwise a standard block would do the same job. Can't see why you couldn't convert it? Normal keystones don't remove barriers so it could go places standard ones can't get... Most master-key levels would indeed include it getting happily to the destination though... Perhaps a nice combination of these two would make a good level? At my site people quite liked my idea of ankh floor element ;-) if you convert it, it will disappear ;-) Well that's not a problem you know. The unlucky 13th Lemming already has to meet an unfortunate fate... My site has seen weirder ideas than ankh floor. I was inspired by a Boris to invent "strawberry jam", which is just like glue except that if a directly adjacent square is empty floor then it spreads to it ;-) (check made after every move) OK, if you have more than one master it makes sense. I made a quick seeking for that particular Boris... seems to be located at http://borisarchive.blogdrive.com/boris17.gif :-) This page is blocked on my computer at work :-O I guess it isn't really... it's a Blogdrive thing and only means you gotta reload the page ;-) no, everything with 'game', 'sex' and 'blog' is blocked okay... Bricks is a game ;-) even the URL has "game" in it... so is that blocked too? ;-) yes, but I can load it from www.rottus.de ;-) lol is that the actual reason for the whole existence of www.rottus.de? ;-) No, they have blocked all blogs and video pages last week. Earlier it worked, but game was blocked earlier. Dietmar is the one with 157 on Tempus Fugit I wonder when they'll block everything with "metroid"? ;-) OK... thanks maybe next week ;-) I hope the Bricks exe blocked everything with "juniper"... my sol to this level really sucks... Juniper is pretty hard to optimize. I guess this level will be improved several times after the comp. I'll improve my personal best several times after the comp at least (if I won't manage that then I'll be in trouble...) Wow I improved Juniper by a lot... 1 move ;-) I think I just spotted 2 more moves a bit further on... every move counts ;-) Actually not... if you're above 1000 then it won't count for normal points and if you're above 100% it won't count for comp points ;-) above 999 Juniper reminds me of Tak... one of the two bad levels in B4... just wait if you see all your bad levels in Bricks VI ;-) well I'll have a lot of bad levels in B6 yeah... Schnappi's the worst :) by abs diff... worst by % diff could really be anything except expansion ;-) what do you think is your worst percentage? I'm hoping schnappi... lemmings if there's another path ;-) I don't mean the comp percentage, but the scoreboard percentage. Any idea? Without unsolved levels of course...+ What do you mean by scoreboard percentage as opposed to comp? if there's no quick path to Schnappi (I guess there is because of high WR) then it could also be, say, Apple, Table or Amoeba And what percentage do you expect? in some levels I don't trust my path at all... (Blueberry, Juniper, Gondolin) but don't really think I'll have a super-bad percentage there what for? Schnappi'll be 200% above optimal ;-) some other levels like no way or lemmings will be quite some way off by abs diff but not really so far by % any level with a shortcut not found by me will be bad % but can't imagine what those could be... ;-) I'll be in for a nasty shock in 1½ days... Don't worry, I guess everyone will have some nice shocks ;-) I wonder if the top Amazing Record will be a nasty shocking shortcut level, or some big ugly level like Schnappi... I guess for the latter 'cos normally more than just one person finds shortcuts... so levels not solved by many are likely to have biggest differences... I have way too few 2-digit scores :( OK, time to go home :-) Bye Bye Have a nice time with the unblocked computer :p * brickmaster (14852012@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: CGI:IRC (EOF)) * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: CGI:IRC (EOF)) * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: dislike_schnappi) * Radix changes topic to 'Bricks VI records to be revealed April 1 - send diaries to radix@speeddemosarchive.com' * Tom (tom@m2k2-5CFDE1EE.access.telenet.be) has joined #bricks * Tom (tom@m2k2-5CFDE1EE.access.telenet.be) Quit (Quit: Leaving) Session Time: Sat Mar 31 00:00:00 2007 * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks * Alan (cb7a60e0@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks * Alan (cb7a60e0@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)) * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks * brickmaster (3e687358@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks Hi brickmaster Hi S! I improved No Way by 91 this morning :) now only 2 lines missing ;-) I'm planning to get one from Big Smiling Face That looks like a very bad score before ;-) yep... it's not as though I really opted it even now... my UR guess is 75 below my current score... perhaps I should get the other line from Schnappi... I guess not 'cos I'll be +100% there even if I work on it so no change ;-) Schnappi has very few solutions, maybe you can get some bonus there. But if your score is very bad you will probably need more time I'll have the worst sol in schnappi so chance for bonus :p (my score is very stuck as a 4-digit ;-) ) so NO chance for bonus... stoopid typo I hope I will get some results today. So far the feedback is very poor. Only 5 players. That was much more at 67%. well that's the last month so it's just natural ppl wait until the end... you'll get many results within the last few hours I guess some during the last few minutes... just make sure to send in a backup submission before your computer breaks down due to massive overheating lol I've got a backup on the other computer (this one, actually...) I can send from there... if one of them breaks down I'll copy my scores from the other to Jyrki's laptop :p The big problem is that I might break down due to overheating... :( My body really can't cope with too much heat. If I was born in a warm country such as Germany I'd be in big trouble... Germany is only warm compared to Finland ... I also don't like heat, especially when I have a competition * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: CGI:IRC (EOF)) * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks some stoopid error just occurred... yeah I guess it's hell to run marathon in 30 degrees... my own times for 8km: 38:36 in 9 degrees, 42:20 in 14 degrees, 1:00:37 in 23 degrees... easy to see a pattern here ;-) 20 degrees are already too much for me, 10 to 15 is best agreed 8 km in 38:36 is not bad! well I'm not too bad at running... in cool temperature anyway ;-) 9 degrees is OK, but if it's below 0 degrees I get problems with fast running because of the cold air that's what a friend of mine who knows more about that sort of thing than me said too... How cold is it in winter in your city? I'll go eat some lunch. Back in some 15-20 minutes I guess... OK, I will also quit. See you tonight I guess I won't make it to the 1am chat... too late :( if that's true you'll have to play my part ;-) OK, bye bye * brickmaster (3e687358@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: CGI:IRC (EOF)) * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks * Tom (tom@m2k2-5CFDE1EE.access.telenet.be) has joined #bricks * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks Hi Tom Hello.. happy with your final scores? me ain't ;-) No But first: who are you ? Sampsa ;-) so, did you solve snappi ? yep I haven't tried with a very bad score though... will get full penalty I guess... but you solved it, that's the most important you solved anything new this month? salambo, ice in the attic wow! what are your unsolved ones? I spent some 9 hours to get Salambo... ice in the attic = easy unsolved: octo, double chair Ice in the attic easy? not for me... perhaps you found an easier path... just solve it with the magnets removed wait a sec, I'm changing my UR guess for ice in the attic ;-) still not easy with magnets removed... 1st chamber anyway... I'm most interested to finally hear the records for tough nut, maverick I've suddenly become very interested in the record of ice in the attic ;-) I only said it is easy to solve also Kelvin, Ganbatte Yo, Contamination which makes me wonder whether there's an easy path... I didn't say my score will be good :-( perhaps you're just very good at solving... (better than me anyway) easy paths generally make good scores. I'm expecting to be far away in Table because Fabrice said he got it easy. Now I'm expecting to be far way in IITA 'cos you got it easy ;-) post office is your level ? and I'm expecting to be far away in Schnappi 'cos my sol there sucks ;-) yeah post office and lemmings I didn't like post office that's too bad :( but lemmings is a beauty well I actually just tried to design levels where Alan would have difficulty finding the optimal... ;-) but I didn't play Lemmings much and I'm far away from optimal there I guess. lemmings is by far my worst level in moves my worst is schnappi ;-) I hope there's no shortcut to Lemmings... i had to restart lemmings twice I had difficulty getting it below AR's move limit... in the end I sent him a >500 solution and said 'this ain't opted, I promise it can go under the move limit' ;-) because I played it nearly to the end, only to realize there's one master brick too short I had great fun designing Lemmings :-) I had to make it a bit easier in the end to get it reasonably short... I'm still >500 the original version had more bricks in both left chamber and bottom chamber and some 1x1 sliders instead of normal 1x1 in the middle AR should have removed some bricks from Schnappi to make it reasonably short ;-) the big chairlike one, for example... I really wonder what the records for my levels will be... you should know, it's your levels :-) How did you discover Bricks ? I was given it for birthday present... the best one I ever got :) I read about it on a Chip's Challenge web site although I didn't really play it so much for a couple of years. But I slowly gained more and more skill AR predicted I'll be in for a few nasty shocks soon... That's always the case.. Yeah he also predicted Alan will be in for a few nasty shocks ;-) it'll be a big nasty shock if WR's >40000... what's the most you improved on a single level after 66% ? for me 230 moves I thought it was "more or less optimized" I improved big smiling face by 104 moves, that might be it... amoeba by 94 and no way by 91. None of these was a surprise I didn't really play much during the last month except this week... should have played more but was too demotivated on Bricks (mostly 'cos of Schnappi...) That 91 moves in no way came all at once this morning :) what would you say are a) easiest and b) hardest levels to optimize? easiest is superglue none are very easy... I'd say perhaps maverick and tough nut (I really hope I got those two right)! it doesn't really fit in Bricks 6 I didn't find superglue quite *that* easy... perhaps it's another wrong path I hoped to get those 2 right at 66% you seem to do well in glue levels (didn't you have a good Dipole last time?) I actually changed path in superglue for 66% to gain 1 more move but still don't like it... you remember dipole ? hardest to optimize are some crazy levels like a) schnappi/table type where I can't even hope to pick right path and b) crazy levels like Kelvin... I quite like dipole... I would hav thought Kelvin is relatively easy to optimize It was a very pleasant feeling to get Dipole solved, with a terrible initial of about 1500 moves 'cos I'd picked wrong path ;-) perhaps you'll think differently when you see the record of Kelvin ;-) then again, perhaps not... when I say "easy to optimize" I mean: not by myself.. I'm still very far from a good player Kelvin's the level occupying most lines in my personal best solution history. I improved on 12 days, on most of them more than once. That's proof it's very difficult to optimize... You're good at solving... you should play levels like Kelvin or most comp levels to improve your optimizing the way I think is : "what's the point at spending hours to optimize if there are some other levels that you haven 't actually solved" the point is this: to take your b5 score for an example, you can gain more than 7000 points by opting but only 2500 by solving. the other point is that optimizing is great fun :) I'm going to dinner now..

Stopped playing early today 'cos I reached the neat score of 333 ;-) there are a few potential levels that could have 333 it's 6 hours to go right he means 333 lines in diary bsh 5:48 or something I need sleep first though that means <6 hr sleep for me ;-( I have a very short history well you better be here or we wont know half the records because I only log my end of moth scores I can send you now haha I could possibly have won if I'd played with full steam the whole time (then again Alan had two weeks of no play too, one in January and one to end with). But I guess it's also true that I'm better at breaking already known records... I predict the WR will go up a lot during the next week ;-) sampsa will start breaking all my records from tomorrow yep ;-) not by me i wont play at all i suspect haha I won't play until someone overtakes me have to solve all levels though AR just informed me that by current scores I have 10 recs and that WR has gone up by 560 since 67% oooh i hsould check my email then if I played with "full stream" I probably needed 3 weeks... wo WR goes up a lot so that means I have to solve double chair and octo to beat Alan... and octo's impossible... haha that means I am far from WR "It will be very interesting to compare your performance with Eckhard's after the competition. Both of you have 41 levels solved and currently 4 records (a lot of players didn't send so far). Even your raw score is very similar. AR predicted WR'll be just below 40000 after the comp. haah I am far from that my WR guess is 39974 ;-) UR 40340 which is uncomfortably low compared to WR... AR also said that both you and me will be in for some nasty shocks ;-) I have xxx74 I have xxx25 I think I have less nasty shocks well i have 3xxxx muwhahah I am prepared TTT very low maybe my worst lv what is the first digit? :P (although it's xxx83 according to my diary which counts me -42 points for schnappi ;-) ) I guess schnappi is my worst lv apple for me haha I had 4xxx initial TTT for me apple initial 1xxx * brickmaster (3e68714b@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has joined #bricks lol... me only 3xxx (I was at 5xxx but had to backtrack 2000 moves to get anywhere ;-) ) amoeba 1xxx apple and amoeba initials both 3-digit for me... i only had one initial that was four digits - rotten amoeba was the level I mentioned eary in the forum I had lots of moves, and AR said he knew what level which i actually liked opt'ing rotten 12xx Jyrki did rotten in 570 for initial so i was surprised when alan complained about it on the forum haha so good I had amoeba 16xx me rotten 9xx... it was my highest initial until solved table... if sampsa stole 2 rec from me, I would have 20 rec? table 15xx there was a weird period in early Feb when I improved rotten for 8 days in row ;-) not efficient enough play ;-) table initial 10xx for me 'cos it was half opted already at that point ;-) haah full op = 5xx then ;-) yeah I guess you're right... many of those improvements were new paths ;-) my 2nd go of rotten was very close to my current I think I suck at Lemmings you'll have fun seeing my table score... I knew I'd be the only one to send it in and so measured it so as to make a nice bsh line ;-) I think I suck at Lemmings too I just talked with Tom and he also guaranteed he'll suck at Lemmings perhaps we all do and therefore dont Tom said he got ice in the attic easy which made me wonder if I have a bad path there...? I need to improve one move per minute from now my 2nd go was not much less than initial :-\ better get moving Ice is not too bad for me I found fast way to do the top my 1st chamber is crap no doubt heh I had trouble solving Ice but the score is not too high... (turns out to be +78% or something I bet) will I be kicked out if I am idle for a while e.g. when I sleep no but earlier today my sesson timed out Radix has been idle 15hrs 30mins 29secs, signed on Fri Feb 23 20:00:12 well maybe the web chat does ... haha not good i'm logging th eroom I want to hear all the gossips haha good pika no action he didn't play since around mid Jan he was here on wednesday everyday I see him on msn, I ask him to play how come you guys abandoned icq :( @Alan: Nolan and Eckhard also got new recs. So you'll have less than 20 ;-) i think i just tied one maybe two don't want to log in and lost another well, I have sent 8 more levels and I hope I get some rec from there too well, yes... I hope Henru steals those recs from you ;-) unlikely i have not talked ot him in weeks :-\ he doesn't play much he did solve schnappi... yes which one do you think is the hardest level in b6? octo or double chair? octo but that already considered in 67% double chair for me i at least felt like i made good progress in DC maybe in fact i did not but i felt like it I guess octo for me... I'm pretty confident I'll solve double chair one day but not sure of octo... the magnet very annoying turtle's still the hardest level in all of bricks though ;-) fab said he could have solve if magnet = std turtle was ok looking at Marco's solution there, I could never have arrived at something like that perhaps we have wrong path ;-) I gotta admit that when designing Post Office and Lemmings the main thing I sought was a level you'd do badly in :p lol * Tom_was_here is now known as Tom i like rainbow but i hate expansion I made quite good initials this time... I haven't cut any of them to 1/4 or less... perhaps just bad opting though ;-) I didn't play Nolan's levels much ;-) why Rainbow just wasn't my type of level, and the few times I played it I only made very small improvements so I figured I was pretty close already. Same for exp rainbow too cramped? rainbow looks good though ;-) any guesses which levels you might have records on? Rainbow I am not strong at I think I get Humpty Dumpty (your shocking level) rainbow ttt nyx and maverick * Nolan knows AR laughts in the background I think I get Nyx ;-) Humpty Dumpty is a Henru creation... sorry Nolan I agree Nolan gets toe-tac-tic ;-) me too I am red at TTT lol the pressure is on remember i did not have it by a longshot in biv Maverick everyone gets me perhaps maverick and toughnut Sorry Sampsa, I got TN I'm hoping Kelvin and Gentle Giant 'cos I normally do well in Eckhard levels ;-) you can have them ;-) okay no toughnut then... let's have contamination instead :p apple i fear could be > 100% but i hope nothing else is Kelvin's the level I have most bsh lines on... yes I have Fox! fox was my last initial Can I have post office? yes sure haah we are distributing records you can have only 10 spots how may spots I have? some spots are multiply occupied who wants superglue? I didn't do well in that one I think I will not design any levels again seems I suck at my own always i should be close but doubt i have it I don't think I have SG too common level too hard to win heh at 67% only TWO designers had their records you're not satisfied with toe-tac-tic? too easy? I think PO and Lemmings were the two not lemmings... TTT just missed path again I am very sure 08yes, I do *gasp* he spoke probably not PO either 'cos I improved it a lot this week haha nice symbolics there (in Boris comics Andreas' character is yellow and the Bricks-God speaks in yellow...) I dislike Apple a lot... 08we can't change colour? 00we can ugh\ dont make me gain ops and turn off colors in the channel Apple I think I have eaten it ;-) yep thanks how about big smiling face? wonder who gets cherry ... I won't have either Erick gets cherry ;-) an innocent looking level tiw as but tricky who gets plum? maybe I have eaten but not sure I can have big smiling face if no one else wants it :p I don't want it I want Plum but not sure (I had red there by 67%!) i only improved plum 4 moves since jan 3 Big Smiling Face is the only level I improved by more than 100 during last month... I hope AR will change the ratings I haven't improved maverick at all since jan 1 ;-) I am not staisfied with my rating you're #1 I want #2 though ;-) score is sent no those super geuins thing in score board OK my expectations are somewhat different from you guys seems you really need to be SG to get such rating now ;-) I'm hoping to have more that 5 levels that are not red that's it.. Andreas - could it be possible to keep SG at 40000? ;-) good to have realistic goals right haha I team with sampsa then ;-) lol then we rule it forever :) who gets grapes? not me! I eat haha I ate too many fruits congrats Alan ;-) who gets blueberry? (not me) unsolved unsolved? perhaps give Blueberry to Tom? :) ha ha I guess we should set SG to 40000, should be possible in the future yes did anyone really opt no way? i did partial I improved it by 91 this morning ;-) but main chamber is so painful haha AR kidding it is posisble but no one going to make it yes@Nolan and no@Alan you said no one would make 43250 in B4 and see what happened ;-) haha you just don't wnat me get SG no individual everyone knows your real score is at least 43270 because you informed about having gotten 31 moves in Thunder I did some noway haha ok you remember everything :-) I just checked.. who gets in&out? 43335 hahah i hate that level maybe me or not i'm only 26 moves below my initial all attempts to optimize fail haha I guess I got it at 33% but not anymore lol maybe you red @ nolan how many reds you thing you hav * Nolan checks board I guess 5 is the max I can cope with I'm permanently updating the scores as results are dropping in ... one record for Tom ;-) I want 5 and will have 22 non tied record? i'll say 10 that record or perfect? (if record then my bets are on blueberry and ice in the attic) are you sure I have a record ? there must be some kind of clerical error! Tom tell use which level you think it is! Not everybody sent in yet :p haha Marco number of record may drop if he doesn't send update Tom has stolen a record from Alan :-P wait a sec, I'll put my UR guesses in as records and see how many reds I'll have (0 greens) lol geee not allowed ;-( fox / nyx / kelvin ? can't be fox or nyx it IS ice in the attic... he only solved it this month and said he got it easy so that's it not kelvin, that's mine ;-) haha I hope not I spent hours on it if I say a level is easy to optimize, I don't mean by myself anyway, any new records, I have to most chance to be affected ;-( who wants car jam? (except me ;-) ) not me I hope it is me, but I think it is not thats' fine tom, that means I am still better then the rest on that particular level ;-) so far 14 levels have been improved, total improvement 568 moves few levels improved by lots maybe those of my submission ;-) more than half is table ;-) who gets flower power? me i am pretty good there ... couldn't improve this month ship of fools? not sure not partiulary good me neither perhaps we should let someone else have it Nolan can have it lol i'm trying it right now because it seems not that good haha all hopes go to nolan after talking to Tom an hour ago I lowered my UR guess for ice in the attic by 71 ;-) haha which is... what scientific methods you have trust me, that's a mistake.. lemming over dos limit my UR guess gives me 11 reds haha I certainly hope mistake 19 blues few of my levels are over dos limit ... BSF also over sorry 20 blues 8 yellow and 9 white haha i have 48 greens in my dream right now I have 41 greens me above dos limit in schnappi, table, amoeba, bsf, ToeTT, lemmings. only just below in salambo and rotten pieces I may need to lower my perfect guess from 24 to 20 yes :) I tend to make a lot of useless steps not in jeopardy though :p so your schnappi, table, amoeba, ToeTT bad ;-) even if all my moves in schnappi were 1 step I'd be above dos limit :p bad rotten ;-) amoeba is only just above dos limit and could go below it if I didn't make the useless steps I never step optimize because I don't get a record anyway thats why WR goes up so much bad schnappi, table, ToeTT... amobea I think I am about 75% of yours my rotten goes very neatly after I get the ankh, but before that it is a mess so I'm just on the edge of red/nonred... but it's moves that matter... not steps ;-) my rotten is a mess overall, but I tried to make it have more sense it's one of my reds with current UR guess though. put fox red, you won't regret ;-) it should be one of the two with Red 2nd place the other one would be TTT ;-( other reds with current UR are apple, schnappi, table, octo, bsf, juniper, rotten, double chair, iceberg lady, and lemmings... i seriously doubt it yellow in fox... the difference between my best and worst level is 566 moves who can do better ? I want one level where second best is red :p haha me >1000 for me lol kidding? schnaippi >1000? yes... very bad path there :( wowow didn't opt much but only 'cos I knew I couldn't get it below the 100% limit anyway ;-) haha maybe you could not as bad as my original path in San which was optimized in 925 ;-) who knows Schnaipp is longer then San another ship idea sunk I did first round opting to schnappi... haha I don't do rounds anymore not efficient I just play a level in two consective days and move along in a sliding window manner I guess it's more a matter of playstyle than efficiency... I didn't do rounds to most levels either... in B3 and 4 I did rounds but not 5 and 6 not enough time my white ones with current UR guess are plum, gentle giant, nyx, expansion, tough nut, maverick, gondolin, contamination and wondy... sampsa 46 levels, 37xxx ;-) not :( i feel good about all those levels too but not ogod enough only 1 point for schnappi you know ;-) not many for table either... oops haha I'd be 36xxx even if I hadn't solved those two... ok I think I will win I could have opted more today but had to stop so as not to spoil my nice 333 bsh lines ;-) yes, you will win my 11 reds are way too much against your 6 ;-) maybe alan should get extra penalty points haha in that 5xx pt improvement, 5xx would be from table to give the others a chance :-) -400 alan penalty he'd still win :l-p haha not fair would I win with my 67%, most likely not according to Sampsa's improvement no ;-) would i win with my 67% + 8 initial scores? does anyone else use mouse wheel a lot when playing since i added that i use it a ton I don't and last night i tried to play on my brother's computer with no wheel too fast I use it a LOT and could barely function it's possible but not a sure thing I only got a computer with mouse wheel last December and never usually use it I'm happy with that cool, at least i'm not the only one first I didn't understand why it doesn't work with bricks 4 then I understood I should update the bricks.exe in my bricks 4 program folder :-) who wants to have clockwork? i use one exe for all ... game menu almost too long :P then it's a mess of different files in one folder meh how many dlls in your main bricks folder? about 25 98 for me, plus a few in other folders ;-) do you keep all the comp levels or something!? not me for clock a lot of them, yes. Most of them are my own designs though levels you know nothing about :) I keep B6 separate and help levels for solving b5/b6 stuff I use help levels for Salambo and Ice heh i made help levels for TTT, ship, and gondolin I keep b6 separate too (only because that way Jyrki will have harder time to sneak in and watch my sols ;-) ) and lemmings ohoohooh I have Gondolin I think I hacked Igor's level i figured it was igor's ... I used help levels for salambo, ice, clockwork, gondolin, table and double chair no more in 67% Jyrki used help level for both juniper and rotten pieces ;-) perhaps that explains his good Rotten initial I didn't use help levels for lemmings :p lemmings is too long ;-( oh and I also used help lv for schnappi... yeah when I couldn't get it below 500 I told AR 'no worries, take that level in, I promise it can go under the move limit' coupled with a solution of almost 600 ;-) haha lemmings is not the longest ;-) by my UR guesses some levels are almost tying for longest I shouldn't have spent so much time opting Table, if I knew Sampsa is like ~1000! adjust your table UR now lol Fabrice is much lower there so you were wise to do it you know it? so it was his 67% rec? he said he got an easy path there so he must be way lower than me I opt crazy for all levels to under 500 if possible but fail haha I got 2 levels above that limit ;-) I noticed a subtle bug haha maye I am red on table too 1 just below... haha Table and Schnappi :( just below = TTT or lemmings lemmings... although Toe isn't so far either you lose if you create different help levels, for example gondolin1.dll and gondolin2.dll; and you also have saved boards for different players 1 and 2 no way also not too deeply under 500... then sometimes the numbers can get mixed up; suddenly you're playing with player 21 :-) you lose again maverick is quite some way below 500... tom did both dlls save to the same files ? haha you win :-) so I may still have 24 rec! isn't it AR? ;-) no hmm but it's no big deal who gets quantum leap? me? could be i optimized it decently but ... no :-p I figured I had it for 33% dos value 10xx Sampsa - Jyrki 46:0 (2 ties on unsolved levels) ;-) haha :) Jyrki couldn't do maverick didn't even solve tough nut does Jyrki have any non-reds? tough nut harder than maverick yes... Jyrki 46 levels woow which missing? = sampsa? Jyrki 32 levels me 46 ;-) ok I misread Alan - Jyrki? My bets are on 48:0 for that then :p Alan - Sampsa might be more interesting ;-) LOL i see ONE move in ship now haha AR won't tell us we'll see after the comp... go nolan maybe you stole my Rec last time there was a very interesting comparison between Ruben and Igor... this time between Nolan and Eckhard... I am feeling generous today :-) lol perhaps it was one of mine ;-) haha I can give mine you keep yourse does anyone seriously want to have expansion? ;-) not me blech :( not me either... not a lv worth having ;-) many ppl get red on TN me one of them lol ;-) could be you guess D. Chair or Octo longer? double chair yeah :-) who gets wondy? henru okay I guess Alan against the rest of the world would be interesting ;-) static also for henru ;-) lol normal pt or comp pt Marco&Sampsa vs. Rest of the world is 42296-42288 for us in B5 :) you guys should put some effort in ;-) haha I give up sorry no input from me But we should take Alan's 67% score ;-) haha if you do that I publish my brk file lol perhaps I should stick to easy levels like those in b5... haha b6 levels easy ;-) 46 of them lol Easy is doable with one 1x1 brick more ;-) I will win rest of the world on total score... 48 lv VS 46 lv anyway ;-) the old joke yes... I'll have to get the missing two soon... more on the outside chamber yep you only have 4.5 hrs hurry I figured, like, by this time next year ;-) who wants litchi? me I eat all fruits except cherry ok... salambo also yours? nope dos = 19xx no one solved but you and me and Tom and I don't want it either... perhaps that's Tom's record! Peter did it okay but he has no rec haha he doesn't? I think not? maybe wrong I optimized salambo quite a lot you get it please yes but still can't believe I'm better that Alan in one level even if it means Alan gets ice in the attic ;-) haha I am not god Andreas is sort of like god... he knows everybody's results... haha if I didn't send my score, semi-god ;-) because we are so stupid to send him our results :-) I'd be 1/5 god if I didn't send mine ;-) maybe I should have kept my own little god who gets central core? stolen hope haha I wonder why you said back in January that this one was very hard to optimize...? becaus I haven't optimzed any levels back then! I found opting there easy... probably means I didn't put enough effort in ;-( Table is the hardest no logical way to do it I hoped lemmings ;-) lemmings ok systematically chamber by chamber not much co-relation between There's a secret on how to optimize table very easily... it's called "luck"... haha... visit AR or visit me lol visit Fabrice ;-) haha I got more recs AR - any info on how many recs for Alan? who wants turtle migration? me? probably anything about 20-24 record is expected I got a very bad first/second round opting result there AR did everybody send the results yet? but anywy, if I have 24 record, me vs rest of world is a close match if I hadn't had more than two opting rounds to turtle migration, I'd've finished with red... so there the round system worked well I didn't do any rounds on any level ;-) you said that already ;-) I don't mind saying again ;-) me opted maverick all in one go :p I said that already too lol haha me too kind of suck level on opting sovling is grat great who knows... we could be +1 ;-) me at least :( I won Jyrki there though... I think 1000 bonus is possible currently 12 players sent results and Alan is now at 24 records was 25 without stolen record ;-) ;-( 2 paths in Maverick... I wonder if anyone only found the bad one? so I got at least 3/8 last levels records ;-) who gets elephant? I guess I am using the bad path in Maverick henru maybe me? oh... I'd hoped it was me :'( who gets e-vile? sampsa with full effort could tie me? should have used full then ;-( no fun now didn't put full effort in e-vile... I mean for all lv It's Fabrice's fault. He told me to play Schnappi and I did that and lost motivation... I asked Fabrice to write that so you lose motivation and I can win lol but now you're regretting it... less fun ;-) I agree the biggest danger is waste too much time on levels like snappi , and at the end still don't solve it true yes... thats' why I solve all first that's why i didn't bother trying to solve new levels this month as in my Bricks VI article ;-) I did solve schnappi... -25 penalty though not worth for the hours and lost of motivation yes... that's what I wrote in the forum... I'm off for a while, c u later haha I need sleep too but I tried it anyway and as it turned out, I had been right. me too certainly need while AR away, let's reveal records lol * brickmaster (3e68714b@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks starting with schnappi please :) haha starting from 999 can't beat that :( haha ok stop there then bricks vi article? unless someone else also <=999 here Henru yes I wrote a short one at work lol he is not here don't know his score 367 or something 367 schnappi? that's my wild UR guess, yes ;-) haha great I know where ALL my missing pts are now lol I shoudl sleep well you are more than 500 and less than 589... so max 222 loss... where are your figures from big secret alan what's the time at your place haha whats my total score? you know as well? my time = 3:47am 4am ;-) btw I need to teach piano 10-11:45am how can it be 3:47 for you and 20:41 for me? Your clock is 6 mins ahead ;-) so I will be away German time 1:45 am for two hours haha yes sure usually only takes us ~30 minutes to reveal our scores to each other I like fast clock we do slowly more speculation stlil less than one minute per level Hang on... the figures don't seem right not just yell out score maybe we should warm up and reveal our Bricks 5 scores :-) I think I start with a score and if someone close they reveal, otherwise I keep going down the score it's 20:42 for me so it's 19:42 in German. Only 4 more hours to go. alan always goes first i think sampsa should go 2nd I start with some bad score that covers 34 levels :-p then whoever else wants to shout and AR reveals the true record we can tie.... Not sure I'll be there... I need sleep too aw come on :-p take a nap like alan haha too scared If so then I've instructed Andreas to have some real fun with my recs, keeping them secret, having fun with you boys ;-) perhaps I should take a nap, yeah power nap who gets stampede? me low oh... who gets ganbatte yo? me? OK who gets juniper? 8xx dos stapede 6xx dos juniper 9xx dos me way lower :) haha xxxx who gets nepomuk? 9xx dos I guess that's everything sorted out then. I'm off to get some sleep, we'll see if I'm awake by 1am :) the records were handed out already anyway :p haha you better set alarm for 12:50 leave me your phone number lol I need morning call too lol international SMS working? lol * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: CGI:IRC (EOF)) I take a nap now 3 moves off nepomuk ... something dumb go nolan, at least ~34 levels improvable 37 :-p haha you kow you avhe 4 rec? didn't you see paste from ar i gave?

Otherwise there would be no chance for him to finish junior high on schedule What is junior high, is that 10th grade or higher Chronic fatigue syndrome. Try to avoid it. In Finland junior high is grades 7 thru 9 greetings to him, funny I am just reading Mankells Tangodancer which is situated up north in sweden Can I ask a really stupid question? NO Jyrki are you sampsa's brother? just read carefully "fathering" Thanks! My wife and I used to read a lot by Mankell, but we got bored. I knew it was a stupid question Hey I like it a lot, what do you recommend Yep, fathe & son - no holy ghost :) no problem, Tommy How does Bricks fit in with School? Lucky bricks only came in when i started uni......so I only stuffed up uni......hahaha BTW, thanks for the pic of your kid, Dietmar! hey guys ... i'll be eating dinner now wlil be back before midnight I am goin fishing now I tried to get my mum to play Bricks, but she finds Bricks 2 too hard goodluck all, and congrat. not for that, next thursday will be his first birthday and hopefully I will make it back to Hannover from Mannheim Opera Fishing for compliments? After some more results: 17 levels improved, 573 points improvement ! year is a great age. So many things happening. Keep your camera/camcorder ready! Wow! which makes a total of what do I still have 1 record ? Past 40000 already?? funny we did a lot of camering last week cause he was trying to move of course it looks hilariously You're doing great, Tommy. My Dad did 46/48 in BrI, but didn't feel like sending in his scorefile. Does he walk yet? Or still on all four? still one record for Tom, 3 for Peter and it looks like Sampsa has lost one How old is your Dad and yes he walks but very very slowly I'm not sure I follow Jyrki * Tommy is now known as Tom Well if you are that open, what about Yyrkis and my records Sorry. How did you get your Mom interested, Tom? she played card games on the computer so I changed the shortcut to start Bricks 1 I know I won't have any. AR already confided to me that it's Son 46 - Dad 0, (tied at 2 - both unsolved) Doesn't take an Einstein to figure out how many records I have :-) Dietmar is currently at 2 records Gibs doch nicht they took one from me or no it styed the same That's a good way, Tom!

For next competition, pls choose a time I don't have to be in the army ;-) Nolan is the best wow congrats Well you get 50 bonus for all levels except maverick :p even more then 67% Sampsa is from anather planet same one as Alan and Alan is from another galaxy could be... I am in the southen side of the same planet ;-) I'm from Bnnqil Ytjim ;-) I think the other way round ;-) congratulations to the first three congrats to Eckhard for 4th place congrats Alan of course :p nice job guys :D Finally I'm happy to not be able to play all 3 months, such a shame to be 1000 bonus points away from Alan :P haha need rest btw Alan, thanks for your diary If b6 only had Eckhard's levels then I would have won :p hah can I have yourse ;-) so Sampsa next time you will beat alan? if I die haha if Eckhard sends in 48 levels then yes :p if b6 had only Raibow, Ganbatte and Contamination, I would have won ;-) lol haha I want stampede you have the perfect on all of me/Jyrki's designs... but not my own design :-/ Any guesses which will be the first record to be broken? My bets are on nostalgy... well everyone knew Nolan would have ToeTT so mean sampsa :P haha my records will get broken by sampsa my records will get broken by alan he will specifically target my like in b4 hopefully we can see diaries and scoreboards soon? I haven't kept a diary (didn't make any sense with so few playing hours and 5 levels sent) but would love to have them... my records will be broken by botrh of you! the website is updated I won't play (do I need to play lol) you don't have very many b4 recs left do you :p its ok ;-) you have plenty of b6 recs to compensate... I've sent my diary to Nolan right before he left I just uploaded the stats. Not all links are working, but most is online. The best solution history is from 67%, have to do the rest tomorrow. all my recs are on crazy and unexpected levels. I felt good about elephant but figured it wouldn't be one of them as there were so few. Only kelvin and GG were expected ;-) well, i have to get back to work bye everyone * Henru (47873234@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: CGI:IRC) elephant is amazing I thought mine good Fabrice solved 44? Not bad where are those stats? ya I got a bit of time to play in march evile, stampede are amazing Jyrki is #11 by raw score! I had first month litchi with wrong path??? Weird! 33% Schnappi is 555... Alan likes neat scores just like me ;-) just coincidence I had 33% central core?! where are the stats ? Fab got Octo? homepage as you can see, elephant already 108 by 33% ;-) There is a Bricks VI link on the main page on the left side yes and disappointed, I thought my 223 was close to perfect :( I had 1st month juniper with my initial????? that's really weird! In&Out already 203 by 33% ... I should have worked more on central core, my half initial is 138 there... not THAT far above optimal 1st month tough nut is 34 lol amoeba amazingly close tought big gap tough nut is my second worst by percentage ;-) (I think... haven't put the recs in yet) I must be a dumb I don't see any link on the mainpage :P Marco gets maverick by steps... Reload the page lol As expected I had 1st month quantum leap I wonder about that, I didn't optimize steps in maverick you don't shuffle the bricks around so much ya needed to empty the temporary files you know how it goes in B5... you send me a 29.9K file and then I send you back a 30.1K file and then you opt the steps back to 29.9K and so on ;-) 2 reds for me =( but I'm really surprised I am so close in Ship of fools... I thought this level goes below 200 which ones? your records laichi and elephant Guys, where can i find full results? Grapes wrong on BSH lol www.bricks-game.de you didn't have 162 by 33%? oops all 100% resuls missing lol me 2nd in car jam ;-) yes, I will do the final records tomorrow - it doesn't work automatically ... Nyx nice score ;-) where do you see what place you are in each level? top5 solutions if you are in top 5 I just posted the final rankings in the forum I really wonder that so many solved salambo and I still got the record... I didn't opt it all that much haha car jam 64 was winning at 33% I had 108 by 33% ;-) i thought I found my red level there lol, I was 3rd in car jam, didn't spend much time to that level LOL at top5 in post office ;-) So only Eckhard fall into the trap on Nyx :P and my half initial on central core would have been 5th?! I thought my path is terrible, that's why I didn't spend more time on it was there a trap lol my very opted central core is only 1 move faster... double path, I guess you should ask him ;-) second best in elephant with +13?! and 5th in PO with more than +100%, lool they got trapped I wonder that my elephant is that good... I knew it was good and potential record but I got <121 quite easily. Only the last few moves were a challenge. I had 111 for a long time then tried alternative paths which led to 110, 109 and 108 respectively :p stampede easy 13x... then I keep playing ;-) I wonder about stampede... lol @ top5 in maverick... Jyrki's levels mostly have red top5 entries ;-) but I see, I need to team up somewhen in Bricks VI too strange tie on 2nd and 3rd on Stampede you need to team with me to get all levels ;-) time for me to go to bed. bye! what, this early? ;-) where at bricks page? bye I teach piano too back in 2 hours hanks Andreas bye but for this, I need to play around 100 more hours... otherwise, I can't bring anything interesting for the potential team player * brickmaster (3e68714b@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks me 3rd in lemmings?? I demanded my piano students to optimize bricks for me that's why I have good score ;-) potential team player = me? I wonder about the Iceberg Lady... I felt good about it. Bad path as I guessed... I had 236 as UR for it... then had a chat with Tom and lowered it to 165 ;-) too low haha table is amazing man, I thought I wasted 100 moves not much hmmm, let's have a look at my guesses my guess for Giant was 105... probably too low I keep opting it thought Sampsa very low 105 too low lol Elephant was 102... not that far away, it seems ;-) I had Elephant 102 too ;-) though nut was 28... definitely bad * Tom (tom@m2k2-5CFDE1EE.access.telenet.be) Quit (Ping timeout) lol I didn't really play much clock work orange, thinking a better path was possible tough nut 37 maverick was 19?!... what did I think about when I made this statistics? i was wrong again what was your UR guess for post office? ;-) 233 wowo my 100% better then 67% WR please, guys where can I find stat? bricks homepage bricks VI in humpty dumpty I guessed 71... very far above http://www.bricks-game.de/html/top5_v6.html\ http://www.bricks-game.de/html/top5_v6.html strange tie on hump almost even distribution of colors for me... 8 greens 9 whites 11 yellow 11 blue 9 red ;-) so many reds ;-) * Tom (tom@m2k2-5CFDE1EE.access.telenet.be) has joined #bricks most of them were expected what am I doing alan with blue score on maverick hahahahah 2, 5, 9, 10, 22 for me I knew Apple, Octo, Amoeba, Schnappi, Table, Double chair would be reds and doubted Iceberg Lady i'm a bit alone :P only tough nut and stampede were shocks... I go now back in 2 hr After recovering from many shocks I'm back again and will leave you soon. My bed is waiting. Good night! Thanks Alan Good night Eckhard! fab you did great in the end bye 3am... I normally go sleeping at some 9pm... I can't believe I'm still awake hmm 4 green, 2 white, 7 yellow, 3 blue, 3 red this shows how bad I am in optimizing... so many yellows, couldn't even make them to white I have 9 yellows you're superb optimizer but 4 2 7 3 3... almost symmetric means that 1 green must be white in fact lol then it would be 3 3 7 3 3 maths adict :P big differences in e-vile... I wonder that Jocke didn't submit anything. No one's heard from him for ages... my Plum is red... that's a shame * Eckhard (4db600c5@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks My plum was red at 67% (wrong path) I really thought In&Out would be <200... compared with the other lvs, 150 would look "normally crazy" I have 5 levels not red exactly what I hoped for 5 more than Jyrki ;-) I'm the only other non-red in Fox... only other non-red in PO... only other non-red in E-vile... all these levels are Alan records my worst is car jam 165% seems to be a lot of levels with 1st place Alan and 2nd place me... quite few the other way round since Alan mostly did badly in such lvs my worst is schnappi didn't see that one coming my fox is the best anyway 1692... even table was lower 113% Tough Nut 85% oops table 108% * Alan (cb7a622b@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)) me too all others less than 50% Congrats to all again, Alan especially, amazing scores !....I'm satisfied with 4 greens (3 records) -> exactly what I was hoping for, considering almost no time to play....good to see Fabrice is back :) Sad to see Wilson is gone though have to go catch some sleep now post office 102% lol bye Igor your UR guess in post office? bye Igor TN 50% still waiting for your email Igor though ;-) Plum 34% I hope the diaries will be online tomorrow sorry Marco... I should have informed you post office was tricky ;-) I'll send you mine personally if Nolan doesn't upload OK Sampsa congrats for doing Gondolin in 116 so early in the game (I had 16x back then)! Fab, email you soon!!! my diary is not based on AR's template but your B5 diary lol I'll send you mine back then I got 117 on first round opting found 1 tricky move later on but figured you'd get the record ;-) oops not 117 on first round opting second round your tough nut is crazy... I was sure 37 was optimal! ya got 37 super otptimized also my solution history in Ganbatte is amusing... 572 --> 163 --> 131 --> 129... it looks like the 131 was so easy to reach, but it was quite difficult I was very happy with 135 :-P there are some more tricky moves....hah TN is so interesting, so many paths 129 is super-good I thought only 1 path to TN ;-) we all make stoopid mistakes... Alan didn't even try to NTYIP Litchi... my 33% in TN was 41 ;-) MANY paths TN one of the few lvs I'm not in top5 ;-) then I was so happy I found 32 (later 30) and thought this must be optimal now Igor generally does well in lvs with many traps I found 2 paths in my plane to Pakistan I generally do well in lvs with only 1 space like post office ;-) yeah I like magnets and traps ;-) don't have maxwell 20 though... why not, it's not so hard I wouldn't be surprised if maxwell's doable in 19 my bsh to contamination is amusing... lv with most lines in bsh is Kelvin yeah Maxwell is the only rec I lost from b4, but I didn't play any b4 after the comp...same as b5 I made a new record in bsh lines. 333 ;-) I stopped playing early today so as not to spoil it :p lol anyone else voting for more Eckhard levels? ;-) see you on the forum guys. bye....nice talking to you. lol not much switching fun this time :( Bye Igor not thanks sampsa :P my level with most lines in bsh is kelvin too how many bye Igor, nice to see you too 9 Good night * Igor (538b493e@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks me 13 if count the title line 9 not counted title I found a very bad path in Kelvin to begin with this is why I judged it to be harder than heptominoes ;-) I agree I really need some sleep now. Goodbye and good night everybody bye sampsa I am leaving! good night 179 --> 177 > 141 > 140 > 138 > 130 > 123 > 121 >120 initial 342 ;-) first round opting 239... * ivan (3efc0005@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: CGI:IRC) bye ivan well, I think I'll leave now too ya me too tomorrow I'll have to be back in the army, gnah see you marco, take care byebye byebye guys * dislike_schnappi (5894c088@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks * Fabrice (56dbaa33@m2k2-13F941A2.com) has left #bricks * beep (d975ab59@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: CGI:IRC (EOF)) * ruben (50cad2b9@m2k2-13F941A2.com) Quit (Quit: CGI:IRC (EOF)) * Tom (tom@m2k2-5CFDE1EE.access.telenet.be) Quit (Quit: Leaving) * Radix changes topic to 'Ooof!'
