No, you didn't.  You only thought you did.  As (presumably) others have won it without them.

The ones I lose most often are the ones that have never been lost. That might be because often I'm trying acrobatic moves & stuff, and don't really give a rat's butt about the numbers. We're all different & Idk why a supposedly smart person would think any differently.

Dang, somebody's been banging on it with every tool in their tool box.  Heck maybe even you-know-who would have trouble with it - meaning it would take him/them 2 or 3 hours instead of 1.

This was a VERY difficult game, imo!

This game was relatively easy, imo, but it had a slightly higher 'Elo' than the game above.

I don't chase elo, but obviously can't help but see it after each game.  Doesn't this seem a rather absurd penalty?  (And yes, I did actually spend that much time looking at, and trying to decipher it.)  And shouldn't that be moved up to climate 9, 10, or 11?

I think that this was a VERY difficult game, at least difficulty level-10!!


GOSH, two in a row.  This one was much easier!

I notice incidents of misuse above by self--"seldom" in (data use) accounting jargon must be <10%, or even 5...where uncommon, where seldom, where rare?

Can somebody please 'splain what *this* game is doing in climate 5?  I could see from jump street that this was no climate 5, but it was way worse than that.  It sits at #10 lowest winning percentage among winnable climate 5s.  One of 29 with a winning percentage below 1%.  andaronjim where are you?!?!?
