Long long time ago in a thread like this one I said I wouldn't learn the intermediate variant for now... I can't resist the force, I've learned the category 1 cases.

What have you done? You made me check them... and learn them :)
In fact the 3rd category 1 case I already knew, because, as I said, following APdRF1 video tutorial he solved the top center 1st and then, when you get the Pi, that's the alg you need.
My only problem is with the 2nd cat 1 case, as I'm still too bad at hedgeslammer... need to check for a good fingertrick.

The secure cstimer site was closer, it prompted for using my mic and went to all dashes. But it still would not respond to the timer on all three computers. Maybe I'm missing something else. On Firefox on my PC it actually went to 0.00 with the mic and I thought it was going to work, but no joy. :(
 
Try not put the whole jacke into the computer input. Leave 10% or less. It worked on my laptop. Did you check the setup of mic in your preferences in Operatin System?

I'll try that. Glad to know it's working for you. Are you on windows 7 or what? I played around with preferences in control panel, do you care to screen shot the settings that work for you?
 
I havent used it for ages and in the mean time I've changed laptop. I haven't checked how it work with stackmat yet.

Edit: it works fine on Firefox. But I had to a little uplugged on stackmat not on computer input. OS is Windows 10.

Awesome job!

I'll play some more with the stackmat. I wasn't sure which side you had unplugged so tried both, but not on all computers yet. My laptop only has a combined jack for mic and headset so I wonder if that acts differently than a straight mic input. I don't have access to Windows 10 yet but surely the OS would work if settings are correct.

I'm fairly certain the stackmat doesn't work with a combined jack. I've tried a few laptops with a couple different OS's and have never managed to get it working, yet it works on every computer with a dedicated mic jack that I've tried.

It works with combined jack. I had to buy a new laptop a week ago - I have an asus and my stackmat works fine on Mozilla. Earlier on the older laptop it worked I had 3 inputs. But later it sometimes worked sometimes not. And it didnt work on chrome.
 
I've tried a bunch of different settings and none of them have worked. My desktop is ancient, 13 years probably, my iMac is pretty old too probably 7 years. The laptop is only a year old or so. I might try it on my desktop at work later on just to see. I'm pretty sure my cables are ok. Oh well.

Congratulations!!! You are progressing a lot in 3x3 lately. You're catching us at 3x3 but I'll never catch you at 4x4 and beyond :(

Maybe you can try a 3-way jack to two 2-way splitter. I have one that I use to plug a headset with separate mic and speaker inputs into a new laptop with a 3-way connector. I mean, something like this.
