 Re: 8x8 timed I seem to be getting slower and slower with the timed puzzles. I think it's a case of festina lente - the more I rush the more mistakes I make. I was very lucky to finish 25th in the 8x8 two days ago with a time of 6:4x.xx and today I was over 8 minutes because I had to redo a puzzle practically from scratch. ![[cursing]](./images/smilies/msp_cursing.gif "Cursing")

Re: 8x8 timed While my times have been somewhat better, my luck is definitely not in this week on the 8x8 timed. In the last 3 days, I've finished 11th, 11th and 26th.

Re: 8x8 timed Similar frustration for me yesterday on the 4x4s. I got my 5th best time ever in 4898 tries -- at 9.856 sec. It was good for 26th.

I'm thinking my 3:07 will make the top 10 though. Even if it's a bit on the slow side ![[tongue]](./images/smilies/msp_tongue.gif "Tongue")
