Don't forget QI. OSPD4 added the word QI, making the pesky Q even easier to score with.

Sleet will kill me if I don't post on this forum, so I'm going to post about a recent passion of mine: board games! BrettSpielWelt is a German gaming server that offers online board games like Ingenious (known as Einfach Genial in German), Settlers of Catan , and Pandemic . These are not likely to b...

Well the reason we agreed on simple human readable notation (as in, anyone can understand the move we make, without prior knowledge of any official notations) was to make this a multiplayer game for anyone, no matter what level they're at. Sadly, it looks like only me, xhunterko, and Obbl are inter...

Sorry to interrupt, but I just wanted to say that The Grey Labyrinth, a puzzle forum I'm on, has these awesome [chess] tags that many people like to use, and they should be implemented on every forum ever where even one chess game gets played. First you type [chess], then the moves that have been ma...

Challenge for New Super Mario Bros. Wii players! Starting without a power-up, and WITHOUT USING THE A, B, Z, 1, OR 2 BUTTONS, beat 1-1 as quickly as possible. I did it with 411 seconds remaining on the clock. (I'm wondering if this might be relevant in the "Discussion: Video Games" thread....

I'm barely active on the forum, so I just today realized there's a new thread for introductions. Allow me to post a better introduction to myself than I did when I was actually new. I'm mathgrant, the resident puzzle nerd. I am particularly into logic puzzles of the Japanese variety, but also enjoy ...

As an evil person who doesn't know what love is, I refuse to let Sleet and Dissension get married. Instead, I insist that they get shot with bazookas, preferable both of them at the same time.

"Whenever I'm straight, whatever I'm sitting on is straight, too!" -- uttered by a laser level on Playhouse Disney (actually, as my dear friend Craig Kasper points out, a level is for measuring levelness, not rectilinearity, but since when has children's television been intelligent?) . I r...

Song 26, "Shoddy Haunt", is up! [OFF-SITE LINK REDACTED] As I have been wont to do in the past, I took a random four-note phrase (D E G# F) and built a song around it; I imagine this song as representing the most poorly constructed haunted house ever, or something.

Song 25, entitled "Settlements and Hexes", is up [OFF-SITE LINK REDACTED] (albeit at the stroke of midnight, since Yoshi's Island speedruns induced much procrastination :[ ).

Guess what inspired the title, and you win nothing!
