legrandc with all top 1% except one (top 5%) in 8 rounds

besides, 9 more top 1% and 12 more top 5%

my scores in birds today were quite insane.

the recent 3 birds consecutive ( the last 2 and probably the first all hit on first try, again):

what am I on with birds currently....? even more top 1% in short time span today, and I can barely remember worse than 1% rounds in between. at least 3 or 4 of them in a row solved with first attempt again. .. only the last one didnt feel much special as I used more time for higher certainty








small edit - and more:

legrandc with a 3.1s
and more very fast rounds as well. I feel like my device is a bit worse for quick inputs, but I also hear several of the top players use 2 fingers

yoa this game - besides round 3, but still ok for hotel for my standards - was 'extremely' good. other player's elo is about 620.
I changed a bit the position of my screen which helps me better see the clues and also touch the pieces.

yet still annoying, discouraging, and recurring how when I win (rounds or games) it is often clear, and when i lose it is close.
edit: ah okay lost the very next game already despite better overall time... getting even heavier every time. feels rather useless and unbalanced that only points count and not the time whatsoever unless for a rare tie. while the time is the only factor of the speed, and should count more if the difference between two places is 0.5 seconds or 30 seconds.

can this really be correct?
a top 1% with 40.6s in hard. while the puzzle seems confidently simpler than average 'hard'. and while I cant clearly remember even having seen any top 1% on extreme puzzle with 40s.
in general the top % data seem a bit strange to me recently, though by far mostly the lower end (very good rounds not reaching top 1 / 5%)

woo got 800 for the first time a few hours ago. with this game, looks worthy and close to one of my best.



next goal to keep over 800 permanently (lost it again but it was a bad game compared to my others running. should win many points there in the ones about to finish). this being part of them, and at the same time curious of always 1st and 2nd place alternating so far - looking good to continue still:



and my only really good daily challenge so far:

congrats! I can really see you being better and faster so far

thanks. my switch to flipping the notebook already helped significantly. now I feel I only barely have a disadvantage anymore to players on phone with their often very quick inputs.
further, I am not vain (at best proud of some results) and would like to see others scores too. but as long as this is not the case I will continue posting regularly to update this topic

(btw I lost around 30 elo and almost 40 arena points due to being kicked out of a game there, in first round, since I didnt even notice there was a table, or even remember I requested a game for it. often it can take over 5 minutes for an arena match to be created,... I would be on ~820 elo already otherwise..)

hello, I just saw this topic and wanted to share this game from some minutes ago because I don't think I have ever had only top 1% rounds before
