I'm curious as to VGchartz user's best expert minesweeper times. Mine is 142 seconds.  I think that is respectable, but I'm curious to see comparatively how good it is.

I thought you'd never ask!  I just happen to have screengrabs of my high scores and my greatest Expert game on hand for just such an occasion!

4 24 75 = 103 seconds, so if I recorded those games with one of those official tournament Minesweeper recording programs, I'd be tied as the 30th best player in California.  I used to play a ton.  I was trying to get into the elite squad of players who have the sum of their best times under 100.  They're the coolest guys on the internet.  There are even 8 people who can do Expert in under 40 seconds.

well there goes the thread...

141 seconds

damn

OK, I'll do a game and I'll tell you how I fare.

760 seconds!

Bah, it's annoying.

I could never break the 100 sec. mark,  I got close quite a few times. 

I always hated every single of those games that come with Windows.

Hey Pac, I haven't played in a long while so I went to check my record and its also 142s. We're last place buddies!! High Five!!
