This morning I won my USUAL THREE games of "Minesweeper".
However, my victory-time got slightly WORSE from the FIRST to the SECOND game.
THAT was a bit STRANGE/UNCHARACTERISTIC.
So, I made ANOTHER attempt.


Sure enough: "The THIRD time's the CHARM."

I went from

508 seconds
   to
526 seconds
to
…

484 seconds.


So, I'm gonna classify those FIRST TWO times as

"TRIAL-RUNS".
