Or maybe completely confuse them :) You need to gradually work towards the result. For starters, you just need to get good at defeating the AI, regardless of the time it takes to complete the game. Although, it seems to me that the longer you play within the time limits, the stronger the AI becomes :)

If it's going to be "line by line," I'll send you a losing save file via email... :(
