Longest world records

I added a section to the world record page listing the 10 longest world records. If you're looking for the most challenging boards, these are probably them!

I've renamed this new record table to "most difficult boards". "Longest world records" was confusing. Sounded like the slowest times, but it was the boards which took longest to solve, a fair indicator of the challenge they pose.

Hello Rob,

nice idea. Anyway, someone just might keep a board running before opening the last tile just to get into that list. Or are you looking at 3BV's and clicks per second on that one as well?

Best wishes, TriNitro.

Hmm, delaying the last time would only work provided you're solving a board that no one else has, and leaves the door open for someone else to more easily beat your record. These are still world record times, taken from the table above it, but they are the boards with the longest world records, ie the ones that took longest to solve. It only looks at times.

Does that make sense?

Hey Rob,

my fault. You're absolutely right, it still has to be a record. I did not figure that one.

How did you change anything in your system in the last week or so? Doesn't XP tell you when it's doing an update?
