My my, what great memory you then have. You actually started the game, got interuppted in the middle, went away for 15 minutes for a phone call, came back and still remembered the sequence up till now... okay, if you say so.... you didn't actually have to explain yourself, yet you did...

And you must have went with blazing speed if you finished a score of 49 in 17 minutes (15 were for the phone call).

you know, the funtion of score vs time:

score = 1, time = x
score = 2, time = x + (x + x) = 3x = ((2² + 2)/2)x
score = 3, time = x + (x + x) + (x + x + x) = ((3² + 3)/2)x
.
.
.
score = n, time = ((n² + n)/2)x

Assuming Lord's (placed second) speed to be average, we see that he scored 34in 12:44 minutes = 764 seconds

therefore:
764 = ((34² + 34)/2)x

=> x = 1.28

So had Lord continued at that speed, he would've scored 49 in ((49² + 34)/2)*1.28 = 1568 seconds, which is around 27 minutes.

So you see, your score of 32 minutes could be quite legitimate!!! You just took 5 more minutes than Lord at that speed, yet you went to explain yourself after I made my remark. And made a phony excuse of a 15 minute phone call. Meaning you must have really blazed through it if you finished in 17 minutes what would take a normal person 27.

All I have to say is: lol, if it means that much to you to win, then suit yourself....
