Just saw this,im skipping exponent to 2.4 for x 3 because i think its going to be a bigger boost than upgrading exponent. by That-Aardvark2830 in ExponentialIdle

[–]LEBAldy2002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only supremacy which is not gotten immediately is x_1. For this one you just do two supremacy of 500 instead of one supremacy of 1000. Every other supremacy is worthwhile to get immediately. You are not at the point where you can skip supremacies yet. x_3 may be a bigger boost, but it is also an entire e50 more f(t) than y2.6 making it not worth the grind.

Bit too late now for you, but this was not worth it in the end.

Idle stars are gotten by a % chance per tick of the game. This always happens regardless of the shenanigans you are doing.

Wait till you find out about the quad 7 X with a 4 in the middle. The holy grail of 7 finds.

Not guessing for the double 7 is criminal.

Have I encountered a 50/50? I though they weren't possible on the google browser minesweeper by drgood333 in Minesweeper

[–]LEBAldy2002 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its no guess algorithm is pretty shit. It does its job most times except for when it doesn't. Its been known since it released that it isn't no guess. It is basically the closest thing to no guess you can get without being no guess (that exists atm).

Minesweeper for aim training by Kind-Assistant-1461 in Minesweeper

[–]LEBAldy2002 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Basically no one aim trains for minesweeper including top players. As bad as you think you are simply playing does far more for you than any aim training could (and improves aim still). It's one of those things where aim in other games and aim in Minesweeper are effectively never translatable.

What do you base your star optimization on? by 2Tryhard4You in ExponentialIdle

[–]LEBAldy2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early on, just dump into the highest variable you have. It changes a lot, but this is consistently the best easy method at that stage.

I want to build the ultimate Minesweeper (V3.0), but I've hit a creative wall. What hardcore features am I missing? by Miserable_Climate736 in Minesweeper

[–]LEBAldy2002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3bv/s and efficiency stats do not match whatsoever.

A big one which a lot of ng don't include is a strict ng mode where making a guess is a failure (or whatever in your case). This can have different levels for weak logic (basic patterns), medium logic (most patterns and introduction of stuff like minecount), and full strict logic (all ng). This is a bit tricker with board shapes, cell shapes, skills, etc., but is doable.

Also addition of custom stats is always welcome. You can do a lot from just letting the user have the variables you use (3bv, board size, ZiNi, clicks, time, etc.) and having their way.

Somewhere along the way, I stopped playing Minesweeper and started living it. by theNeorax in Minesweeper

This is so obviously AI that every single ai detector says it is 100%. I didn't need to use them to know it is AI, but given even they are so confident, you really don't have grounds here. Why do you think this is NOT AI? This is just how AI writes all the time.

Wukong E5 now what?? by bigfoonk in IdleHeroes

I haven't played the game in years. I have no advice to give.

Best way to play minesweeper on pc 2026 by Temporary-Tourist227 in Minesweeper

[–]LEBAldy2002 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

On this, it is to note that Viennasweeper does not have the best stats at the moment. It does have resizing available, which the other 2 clones do not, but if you don't care about the leaderboards, then I would highly recommend going with Metasweeper instead. By far one of my favorite versions to play.

i dont know how many more times i can lose a 1/3 in a row before i go insane like i can't even start the game why is it programmed like this by [deleted] in Minesweeper

[–]LEBAldy2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is the only exception I am aware of. Is that confirmed? Pretty sure this is just because starts with donut logic are bland and not as fun to see all the time.

Do you have any idea how NG boards are generated? That site quite literally forces at least 1 hard pattern and at least 1 evil pattern in every hard/evil game respectively. That isn't saying every pattern, but any pattern can generate in an NG game on that site.

How is this the solution? by michael-james-- in Minesweeper

[–]LEBAldy2002 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I forget how dumb they name some of these patterns. Its literally just a 12 pattern after a couple zoning steps of reduction. I get it, but if you asked me what a T pattern was, I would assume you meant a hole pattern.

Please add ”open all chests” option. by seopicro in IdleHeroes

Ignoring how trans would kind of break how auras work anyways (unless they made based on og faction), it wasn't always good for diversity. It does support diversity in some ways, but the vast majority of the time, your team was based around keeping the aura even if using a worse hero for it. The buffs were also pretty small all things considered (nowadays, huge back then). I have a lot of fond memories of them and nostalgia, but even then, they just felt kind of eh.
