Nice work, Mondsemmel  But i was looking at the club times, and yours is 9 min and 40 something seconds... and your actual best time for the week is less, as i can see even this week you have little above 7 min-s.
So is there a way to update the club time if a member does better, for example i have 59:09 mins one day and I'm accepted in club 59, the next day i solve it faster than the previous week and end up with a time of 58:30, so my cumulative time in the club section should be updated to 58:30 :] |

Is there a worst "best time"? I'm guessing my 7:06 for friday's puzzle would take it (except for the first days of kwon-tom loop, when no one was very good). I thought there had to be an error when I got the "this is the best time recorded" message... |

You're right, that's a very slow "best" Friday time! Looking at the stats, it is one of the harder puzzles in the database... |

Not just Friday, but the whole weekend. Friday, Saturday and Sunday were all tougher than usual. If you keeps this up, I'll never post a new PR.

I think the Sunday puzzle was okay. But yes, the Friday and Saturday puzzles of this week were ridiculously hard... |

Finally living up to the "very hard" label, then? I did tweak the generating algorithm a while back, so maybe some of the new puzzles are now starting to appear. There were a couple of obvious solving moves I had missed and adding them in to the puzzle ranking algorithm has shifted what it thinks is "very hard" up a bit. |

EDIT: Amazingly, that 1-second improvement on Saturday took me more than a year (!).

I didn't noticed that I'd broken the best time ever for Sunday when I solved it. And you performed even better, MondSemmel, congrats! |

Great job, guys! Took a while, but you finally took it down. Now are we gonna wait three years to do it again? |

2.5 years for a 1-second improvement .
I kind of forgot this thread until I checked my best-of time for Friday today, so it's very possible we missed new records by others. If you want to check whether you've beaten any of these times before this week - e.g. Nimrod is a likely candidate -, the only way I'm aware of is to go to your Stats page and look at your best time for each day of the week.
