The fastest I could get was 80 seconds, but I'm sure you younger ones can get it done alot faster |

AFAIK, There is one chance in just over a million (2^20) that you don't have to play at all and that all the balls are in the right place from the start.

<s>Fortunately, that'd be 2^19, which is twice as promising </s> Scratch that, didn't see there were designated sides.
Usually there's a set amount on each side though, but after massively clicking I got up to 9, so I'll go with the assumption someone could win the lottery of 0 seconds. So every 524288 clicks or so, someone with more patience than speed could break the record. Therefore all these best times records things are silly.

18
But the stupid thing is: I do not get better with practice. I keep getting confused. "If that red ball coming from the right should not go to the left, than that blue ball should go to to the right. Oh no it shouldn't (have)! Then what about that red ball coming from the left? "

I just spent 2 minutes trying to figure out why I didn't get a win after holding all blue's on one side and all reds on the other ... only to find out it really was 2^20 []
