::: comment :::
Thanks Patrice, for your help : I've nothing more to play now !

All my 4.5 <=> 6.2 came from a night batch (12 hours - 60 millions puzzles generated, less than 1.5 millions rated) and i didn't generate (or rate) anything since 12/06/2018 10:43

I'm travelling abroad and I will be off network for a while !

Have plenty of fun with the Pattern Game !

[champagne]

I have still one self trumping and one trumping on you, just enough to force mladen to search more

[dobrichev]

To me this game differs from others by the exceptional persistence and patience (Pat, where are you?) of the players. This wasn't happen from years.

I am proud of reaching the first 4.5 diamond.

The highest rating was more or less matter of luck.

I started late, and then spent several days on autopilot. It turned out that the executed batches were waste of time. (I still think how to convert this failure to success...)
I wasted 2 days investigating the 6.9 area, so far reached one 8.5/6.9/6.9 and tons of garbage.

Meanwhile I tried to improve my tools.

I realize that it is not plausible to remain a leader for longer. Not just champagne is a threat

[champagne]

I am not 100% sure that trumping papy999 would be enough to pass you, but I am still fully occupied in the high ratings area so we'll see (unless other players step in)

BTW congratulations for the 4.5 diamond. It could be that these high number of clues's patterns offer other chances to find the missing diamonds.

I am not 100% sure that trumping papy999
would be enough to pass dobrichev

trumping will definitely bring you into first place --

he loses 445+100
and you gain at least 445+2x101

at that point,
another player may win --
by taking bonus_last
( e.g. by trumping you )

4 players still within reach of winning !!

it's time to play my last and to stop generation on this pattern with I think more than 1500 puzzle in the PH area
