I meant to write ""practical=/=fast". Looking at the avg number on top is a sensible way to find out how fast you are.
Actually, I was talked about this already. The definition of practical is "sensible or realistic" and I DOn't find it practical for the columns to switch places every round, potentially causing unwanted lag/delay in time when you can really, just look at the top, which is already a fast enough way.

Yes, usually things that are practical are faster than when it's impractical. Including this case.
Yes, but what's even more sensible, is to see your placing in the columns.
Again, you're talking about something different. It's more practical to just see what place you are in the columns.
I agree that the lag/delay is unwanted, but it doesn't change the fact that looking at your column position is a faster way to determine your placing.
We're talking about 2 separate things.
-Ease and speed of looking at column placement to determine our placing
-Lag/delay of having the columns switch
It's not "just look at the top." You also have to then look at everyone else's time, and compare yourself to their times, to determine your placing.
You say it's fast enough,. But, you cannot deny that a glance at your column placing wouldn't be even faster.

This is a screenshot of my problem,
I have IE7, so that's probably the problem.
However, one of my Dad's pet peeves is that I can't download any new internet browsers:fp

Doesn't windows force you to update IE anyway? Just get IE9 and lie about how you got it (say it was a mandatory update or something.)

Well, downloading it would be kind of an obvious giveaway that I hacked the admin account 
Getting him to download a new browser is easy though, just bug him to get the next browser, and 8 months later he will, right after they release 2 more! lol, that's actually how it works around here.

I totally understand him, such inability would peeve me as well.

While that statement might have been poorly worded, it's obvious that "Dad" and "I" are seperate entities, because it makes absolutely no sense to switch from 3rd person in my perspective, to first person in his perspective, in the middle of my sentence.
The fact of that matter is, he won't let me modify, add, or remove programs on the computer. Plus he's not one of those stupid people that tell their kids not to do something, but aren't stupid enough to know when they do it.

Yeah. So?
Shouldn't that be "smart enough to know when they do it"?

How about when luis makes the code for the columns switching it can be turned on and off. For the people who already have lagging problems, they don't have to deal with the extra lag. The for the people who want the feature, can turn it on.
The only problem is deciding the host which I think should stay the way that it is.
If you don't mind me asking, Luis, what is your opinion on this topic?

Yes, this is actually a perfect compromise! Very good.
Me too. I really like the way the host is decided right now.

Thanks, I've been thinking outside of the box recently, because of an email my friend sent me.

E3cubestore, I've been debugging the problem for a while (can reproduce it in an IE7 here) and is the tipical thing that shouldn't fail... but it does. I can't spend much time on this right now, so, my recommendation for you is upgrading. In any other case, you will have to wait, ok? 
No, seriously: I see the columns fine as they are.
Luis doesn't have an opinion... Luis have lot of work to do!

I just wanted to mention that the scramble algorithms tend to give easy solves.

This is a really nice idea!
I did this for half an hour and it worked great, it's real fun to do.
It definately deserves a graphical update
