I never got addicted to Minesweeper because I never really understood how to play it. But now I'm addicted to Civilization III.

I AM THE MINESWEEPER MASTER! OR at least I used to be. I got the beginner in like 15 seconds, and the huge one in hunder two hundred. But I haven't played in such a long TIMe. It's hard with a touchpad.
When you get a new edition of Windows it comes with a Pinball game by MAXIS, some space cadet thing. That keeps me up till all hours of the wee morning.

I have been humbled.
But after a certain point of Minesweeper greatness, how fast you beat the small one, depends on how much goes blank when you click first. Know what I'm saying?
But damn, I bow in your prescence.

Indeed. That is why I never play the smaller two boards. Too much depends upon random chance. With the largest board, some still relies on chance, but after the initial chances have been taken, skill plays a very important part. Much more so than with the smaller boards. So I play the large board because it challenges me more. I'm sure I could get the medium board down by 10 or so seconds if I tried, but I NEVER play it or the small one...

I just played Intermediate for the hell of it, and almost immediately I got my score from 35 to 33. So maybe I'll spend some time with that level and see what I can do...

Not actually post whoring. Each of those was a new bit of information. And as such, should not be considered post whoring. This post, however, in it's current state, might well be considered post whoring, or postitution, as I like to call it...
But I haven't been able to crack below 27 yet on Intermediate. I've had 27 about 3 times, but nothing less. And I played the smallest level, and I can't even get 6 again. Too much luck involved. So I quit that level. But I don't think 27 is tooo shabby for intermediate.

Hey Victorwootenfan.........I would highly suggest Civilization III.........I saw Civ II, and III has sooooo much better graphics. And it's unbelievablys addicting.

Minesweeper was on the very first laptop my mom gave me. Unfortunately, it had to be wiped clean and I haven't had it since. I loved that game. I wish it was on my new laptop. It would be fun to have on tour. As it is, I carry my little 1989 Gameboy with Tetris and Digdug. I hear the new gameboys come in different colors. Do they make one in purple? May be TIMe to upgrade. I can't believe my old one still works. It is so basic and easy, I just love it.

I've been playing minesweeper more lately, because I can't play snood while I burn cds, and I can play minesweeper...so I just play it. And it's as addictive as snood to me. And thanks to me, my sister and my girl are both snooddicts. Silky, if you made a percentage for every game that was played due to you, then you'd be rich...

If you like card games and are bored of regular solitaire, get spider solitaire. It's another good addictive one. Also, not card based... play bejeweled. Muey addictive.

While Fluffy is on his 1989 Gameboy,
I'm on my old NES system! I've got the orignal Duck Hunt, Mario, and Track and Field in one cartridge. With the orange blaster, and the floor mat for the track and field game!

My roomate has Playstation 3(I think) and I watch him play it sometimes and the graphics are pretty amazing. I was at a friends house who had an old playstation 1 game and I was shocked as to how far they have come with the graphics. I can remember when I thought the graphics on Playstation 1 were incredible, now they look like PONG compared to Playstation 3. HEHE

Maybe it's playstation 2, I don't know shit about video games. HEHE All I was trying to convey was the obvious difference in quality of the graphics. Pretty shocking.

And now, there's a special.......two for the price of one! You can combine them any way you want! Two hos. Two hose. Or one of each!
