Alright, I'm stuck. I have no clue what to do here. Any ideas?
>>
>>334493997
See the 1-2-1 near the right edge? The spot above the 2 is safe. The two spots on either side are mines.
>>
>>334494184
Before I try this, mind explaining how you came to that conclusion?

Here, I marked the knowable mines from that shot with red dots.

>>334494339
Thanks, but I'm a scrub at this game. Would love for a little explanation on how this was deduced.
>>
>>334494332
It's one of the basic minesweeper patterns. If you have a 1-2-1 row with all spaces behind it clear of mines, then the spot above the 2 has to be safe.
>>
You're totally screwed with that 2x2 box near the lower left corner.

You have no choice but to guess.
>>
>>334494332
The 1 to the right says there is a bomb either directly above it or above it and to the left. The 2 says there must be two bombs in the three boxes above it. The left 1 says there must be a bomb in the three boxes above it. It cannot be the box directly above the 2: if you put it there, the other mine you have to put(to agree with the 2) would ruin it for both the left 1 and the right 2.
An easier way to show this: Whenever you play the small map, and there's a long line with 2s and 1s, the one directly next to the 2 will always be clear.
>>
>>334494614
Nope. top left and bottom right are mines.
>>
>>334494437
Working from the mines above the 1-2-1, you know that the spot in that corner can't be a mine because the 2-1 under that corner have all of their mines accounted for.

>>334494614
This is true. You're stuck with guessing down there. Shit happens.
>>
>>334494743
No, it could be bottom left and top right. It's one or the other, but you can't tell which.

So I clicked the wrong space by accident. But these were the results.
>>
>>334494743
Don't be a retard it can just as likely be the opposite.
>>
>>334494743
That's possible. But it could also be that the bottom left and top right are mines.

>would ruin it for both the left 1 and the right 2.
would ruin it for both the 1 to the left of 2 and the 1 to the right of 2*
I tried to draw it. If you put one at the purple, you're forced to put another bomb at either side of it, on the right you ruin it for the 1(because you already have the purple on).
>>
Anyone care to give me some patterns? Playing another game and I'd like to know some patterns.
>>
I still don't know the rules for minesweeper.
Do the numbers indicate how many bombs are there in a 3x3 space around said number?

Did I fall for a ruse while making minesweeper with WRAPFIELD?
I can't really export it because the guy who ported it to a proper IDE is a lazy fuck
>>334495597
Yes.
>>
>>334495730
Oh, okay.
Then how did >>334494339 know that the bombs around the 4 were arranged that way?
Or did he just guess correctly?

The orange two has only two tiles closed around it and there are 2 mines in 3x3 square around it. Naturally, those two closed tiles will be the mines.
The red 1 has only 1 mine in 3x3 square around it, thus making it obvious that the 4th mine around the four is at green square.
Yellow square is an empty/numbered tile, because if a mine was there, you wouldn't be able to put 2 and 3 below it.
Other brown squares are also empty.
Since black is a mine, the 1 by it has its condition met, thus remaining tiles are empty, therefore the last remaining unopened tile by 4 is a mine.
>>
>>334495991
There was no guessing there. Once you learn the basic patterns, 95% of every board will flow quickly and easily.
