James still Fetch top puzzle rating over 2400 but me and Brian in the 2300’s chasing hard, Bish & Rasmus both over 2000. The big difference is in % solving success, where Brian has 70% vs all the rest of us in the 50s (although James is 59%)
jda Sep 2021 10:00pm, 3 Sep 2021 10,707 posts	Quote Pin jda Do you know how the timing aspect works? I wonder if it's better to think a bit longer and maybe get more right. Or not.
JulesR Sep 2021 10:30pm, 3 Sep 2021 26,659 posts	Quote Pin JulesR It’s +5 for a slow correct solution no matter how slow that slow is. Faster correct answers can gain way more - I’ve had a +15, but maybe higher available. I was wondering if you solve a few puzzles consecutively if they just get tougher & tougher, so it may be best to restrict to a few each day? My other non-Scottish club has most top people on 52-55%, so James at 70% is exceptional (although he hasn’t taken on the toughest puzzles much yet!)
