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.

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.Matthew Green wrote:http://www.apterous.org/viewgame.php?game=34923

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.Charlie Reams wrote:Like this, you mean?Paul Howe wrote:Good one, quite a few records so far this week.

I can probably make that happen but yeah, the data is pretty sparse right now.Paul Howe wrote: 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 would recommend my game with Richard Brittain and this cracker from Steven and Richard.

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.Charlie Reams wrote:Finally got round to doing this, took all of 5 minutes:Charlie Reams wrote:I can probably make that happen but yeah, the data is pretty sparse right now.Paul Howe wrote: Like that, except for hypernumbers.
