At what level about is mins being wasted on IQ. I know after so many mins the level of improvement goes down what level is that? Is it like 40 or 50?

If you're talking about diminishing returns, the forum fact is somewhere around 25. However, Iguana did a study where he thought 10 minutes was the point where diminshing returns started kicking in (even if just barely). You might want to sitemail him and see if he'll post his chart again, it was very interesting.

Ah okay, good to know. At 10 I understand a little bit and then it ramps up. 25 sounds about right from what I remember although 30 was where I usually went. Just thought I would ask thanks for the help.

interesting. tamik told me via tech support a few years ago it was somewhere between 20 and 25 for diminishing returns.

keep in mind, none of this is saying that it is pointless - I have always imagined - and I think it is consistent with experience - that it is something like after you get over some level (20? 25? mins) additional minutes only have the effect of say 0.9 mins and then with more its say 0.8 mins etc - so that (again, I am making this up) minutes 41-50 might be worth only 60% as much as mins 11-20 in a given cycle....maybe
