Good to see you, a!  That's a major bummer that you can't speed up the game anymore. . . that's gonna make it next to impossible for you to get past level 195 I sure haven't ever been able to, and I must have played dozens of attempted emerald runs by now without getting past 195. :)  Except each of those attempts takes 10 hours, minimum, at normal speed.  And still no uberstone yet, of course. We've got about two more years left to try before Flash games become totally unplayable.  Time to fill up the newly cleaned high score list. (I *JUST* finished another level 195 game, and after 10+ hours, hit the "submit" button without typing anything, like a complete idiot!)

If you ever do get Cheat Engine working to speed up GTD again, a, please let us know!

Oh, and on the sandbox mode, believe it or not, I spent a fair amount of time trying to play around with the emerald strategy, and I just found it too tedious, the constant repicking.  I think one time I had as many as 30 dark emeralds and still was leaking multiple air troops at level 195+ (would have helped if I had a great opal, but I didn't feel like repicking hundreds of times to get one), so I just gave up. I accept humbly that I may never get past level 195.  :)

New high scores still aren't accepted even after fixing whatever was blocking new comments.  I would love to buy the new iPhone version but my phone is too out of date to download ii (and it would seem from "noname"'s comments that it's nor much more bug-free than the prior version that I paid for and ended up never able to play a single game).  I can't say strongly enough that I will support this game in any way I can (as I have in the past by making donations and buying the first non-functional iPhone version).  But as things stand, while it's very nice that we can add comments to the web version again, nothing else works.  Nothing.  C'mon, Peter.  You're clearly a very talented programmer who (a) can do a lot better than this, and (b) isn't out to scam anyone.  So could you please:
(a) Scrub the web version of the bogus high scores once and for all (you did this once before to my great pleasure)
(b) Make the web version capable of logging new high scores again as it used to be for years, and 
(c) Make the iPhone version playable?

I will gladly make another contribution to show how much I appreciate the game and your work on it, but I await some sort of response.  Flash as a platform will be completely dead in just over a year.  It would be SO GREAT if this site was really working again in advance of that.  Thank you!

Well, no one is more aware than I am how absurd it is that I'm even still *playing* this game after all these years, but that said, I've actually just figured a new variation to my usual strategy that considerably cuts down time.  Basically, it boils down to intentionally leaking ground troops as much as can be afforded gold-wise, because letting them escape is far faster than winding them through the maze to kill them.  So I alternated between levels of letting them escape (which takes about 45 seconds), with levels where I had to close the maze back up to force the ground troups to the lower left where I keep all the jades, in order to build gold back up (killing all the ground troops, with a proper maze boosted by a great opal, takes about 160-180 seconds).  And then I blew it on level 183-- miscalculated how much gold I needed.  But I expect to keep using this plan-- it does cut down playing time by about 30%, which is quite a lot when games take 20 hours to finish!  I've pretty much given up all hope of ever replicating aznist's brilliant emerald strategy, the only person to ever past level 195 legitimately.  :)
