Round 11 I told Andrew he was playing shit. Awesome comeback. Great game.

Maybe not worthy of making the shortlist but I thought I'd throw this one into the mix because a) I beat the beast who is Chris Davies and 2) Round 13.

You've gotta get that speedgoat max soon, so close again

A solid game which swung both ways. A bit like my Ipod.

It rather pales in comparison to some of what's gone before, but this was pretty cool just because we were level from round 3 to the end (and there's even a bonus conundrum for added funtime).

Getting closer and closer to that hypernumbers maximum...

Plus I beat the current record (Ben's 181 was done in 45-sec rounds).

Good one, quite a few records so far this week. A real man would go for 6 large though. Would be interesting to know roughly what proportion of 6 large games are actually solvable, the solution methods must be like the regular 4 large game on steroids.

Like that, except for hypernumbers. I thought about blasting through some 2 second hypernumbers attacks to gather data, but wasn't sure if that was enough time for the solver to do its thing.

I can probably make that happen but yeah, the data is pretty sparse right now.

I would recommend my game with Richard Brittain and this cracker from Steven and Richard.

My analysis of this game can be summed up by my declaration in round 11!

Finally got round to doing this, took all of 5 minutes:

I am surprised none of the 2-large games have been completely undoable, even though it's a toss-up between 2/6 and 3/5 for most optimal pick you'd have thought one of them would be crap.

Nice, its surprisingly well balanced, apart from 8 small.
