i noticed once in a while it will say you'll leave 3-4-5 but you can play when there are same colors near each other with a few left and get less  it's like bb7 missed one. like it reads ballons from bottom to top

Yeah some of the Z programs have that bug... It's almost like the final loop in the code doesn't account for the remaining cards or whatever...

Though with BB7 I don't think that's the case...  BB7 seems to be more like a brute forcer on the balloon puzzles than anything else... It just tries different combos of clicks and tries to get the best solution from that...  A program like this doesn't require a terrible amount of "brains" (thus the significantly smaller file size than PopBuddy)... So the "problem" you are having Kot, wouldn't so much be a flaw in the program (it's doing exactly what it's designed to do; eventually if you let it run long enough it would take the solution to 0)...  Maybe try adding a little extra time to the clock and it might get better solutions for you...

The only real problem I have with BB7 is that it will time out every once in a while and so then it will skip puzzles...  And anyone that wants to try to tell me that it is a "designed flaw" so that you don't win every game; that's like saying you buy a car with a "designed flaw" that shuts itself down every once in a while... Until I see the actual source and the "design flaw" implemented into it, then I will just accept it as a plain and simple flaw... (Also I've never heard WordzW say anything about this problem designed to be there)

Also the design architectures of the WordzW programs are all merely hypothesis' of mine and my ideas on how they went about creating their programs.  They are in no way how the actual programs may have been created and I could be completely off base...  :D

I use after 10 seconds pop best solution

auto
1sec pause
pop immediately when 0 balloons
rerun after 40 popped

I get about 50,000/hour

thanks fatkid! i upped the time to start popping to 60 secs and I do seem to get 0 more often. In a little test run out of 71 puzzles I had 45-0's 11-1's 4-2's 16-timeouts and rest was 3 to 9 ballons left

Yeah that's the power of brute force... Given enough time a brute force attack can solve anything... From Pogo puzzles to passwords on your harddrive... All it takes is a little time :-)

i find if you leave or set the bb7 program to 30 secs, and rerun after 40 ballons you should get out of say 500 games you would get around 375 games at 0 and about 20 skiped games and so on
