I am a half decent solver.

I have just completed today's (difficult) Times Cryptic in just over an hour. I have checked the stats and one Stefan Szulc claims to have knocked it of in 3 minutes 3 seconds. Ten others were under ten minutes. Please forgive me for being cynical about these ridiculous claims. When I submit the Saturday prize puzzle it takes me at least four minutes just to type in the solution and check my entries!!

The first few type in the answers for whatever reason but mohn, Magoo and cmjhutton are all real sub-10 minute times….but then Magoo and cmjhutton did come fist and second in last years Times crossword competition!

Thanks - I had recognised Magoo as being kosher, but I am bewildered as to why the frauds bother!!

A new leader!
Niqo has posted a time of 2 minutes and 23 seconds !

It beggars belief. What on earth is the point?
