Pineapple Maze King

I shattered the previous pineapple maze record today, finishing it in a mere five minutes and regaining my place at the top of the leaderboard.

My run sliced the previous high-mark of 10 minutes in half, and it should last for quite some time. I had slipped to second place after my previous record of 12 minutes set a month ago failed to hold up for long.

It surprised me how easy it was to regain my place as the champion. I'm not a fast runner, but I was able to put down a strong time because I knew the maze so well now that I've been through it six times.

Beating the pineapple maze is a somewhat trivial accomplishment, but it's not much different from winning a poker tournament, race or video game. It's pretty rare to be the best at anything.

Congrats! You demolished my line of 8 minutes.

When the Kenyans fly in, don't be surprised to see 3 minutes on the board. :)

There are no bad beats in pineapple maze running. How is it like poker again?

It seems like running maze twice in a month is a little like knowing everyone elses hole cards on UB or Absolute.
