Ive somehow clawed my way to 2nd in puzzle league due to ridiculous luck in schedule. I face 1 and 3 this week tho, let's see how far that luck can stretch

enjoying the LGBTQ mini and did predictably well on the comic strip one day

Yeah, two MLs at once can be kind of fatiguing

I was fine with two but three did me in: On MD1 of 21st C Lit, I forgot to submit my answers for MD11 of Puzzle League.

Which effectively put me out of the running for the championship.

My 1DS is live for the next day or so (Just Audio: Familiar Songs).

justfanoe (Greg Fanoe), Monday, 3 May 2021 17:41 (five years ago)

cool, will play tonight!

Draymond is "Mr Dumpy" (forksclovetofu), Monday, 3 May 2021 18:07 (five years ago)

I played and enjoyed. Made an unforced error though.

As I also did on Outlaw Country, where it really cost me.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 3 May 2021 19:47 (five years ago)

Greg, yours is literally the only one today that I can MAYBE get one right!

Tahini Coates (Leee), Monday, 3 May 2021 21:32 (five years ago)

You didn't try Neo-Noir?

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 3 May 2021 21:42 (five years ago)

I submitted every one except Greg's.

Tahini Coates (Leee), Monday, 3 May 2021 21:43 (five years ago)

On another note, I am finding out it’s actually not bad to play along with a(n) ML that one is not registered in. No need to worry about wagering, for one thing.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 3 May 2021 22:24 (five years ago)

Interesting that only Greg and I did Outlaw Country.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 3 May 2021 22:33 (five years ago)

I generally try to do every pop music 1DS

justfanoe (Greg Fanoe), Monday, 3 May 2021 22:57 (five years ago)

Makes sense. I just noticed that I guy I recently became acquainted with seems to do every single 1DS. Seems to be somewhat excessive imho.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 3 May 2021 23:21 (five years ago)

Waiting to see how I did on Greg's and a few others. Mine goes live tomorrow, I am a bit nervous.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 4 May 2021 17:02 (five years ago)

The thing about doing a ton of 1DSes is that it gives additional information for your opponents on how to defend you.

Tahini Coates (Leee), Tuesday, 4 May 2021 17:19 (five years ago)

Does it go into the statistics?

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 4 May 2021 17:24 (five years ago)

No, but the more dedicated defenders can click through to your profile and see your full 1DS history, which might feasibly help on certain questions.

justfanoe (Greg Fanoe), Tuesday, 4 May 2021 17:49 (five years ago)

It’s (a)live!

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 09:33 (five years ago)

Greg, did you send your testers a PM thank you as well as thanking them in the recap?

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 13:39 (five years ago)

Anyway, y'all come on and come and play my Isaac Newton 1DS if you feel it is in your wheelhouse.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 13:51 (five years ago)

Shocked that your last name isn’t Redd or even Blecch

Clara Lemlich stan account (silby), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 13:53 (five years ago)

Heh

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 14:05 (five years ago)

Okay, I've recently gone north of 200 submissions so I can die young, stay pretty and you can bury me happy. Well, um, anyway, I think you catch my drift.

I have never PM'd to thank testers except once or twice for a couple of testers who really went above and beyond, but a lot of people have mentioned on the message boards that they like it. I test for a lot of 1DS's myself and it's pretty rare to get any messages from the smith.

justfanoe (Greg Fanoe), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 15:41 (five years ago)

I did it just now. I received a bunch of these but they were very formal, which was still sort of nice. I tried to make it informal and I sent it right today
as a reminder in case they want to look at the actual contest.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 16:11 (five years ago)

Okay, I've recently gone north of 200 submissions

Newton > Joyce shockah!

Tahini Coates (Leee), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 18:26 (five years ago)

Tell you why later.

Wait, silby, I just noticed your alma mater.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 18:40 (five years ago)

And?

Clara Lemlich stan account (silby), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 18:49 (five years ago)

I spent a summer there once.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 18:55 (five years ago)

Which I believe has something to do with the current campus speed limit.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 18:55 (five years ago)

Ah you did the math camp?

Clara Lemlich stan account (silby), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 18:55 (five years ago)

You know it. Everybody did back in the day, except for the greatest of us all.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 18:57 (five years ago)

I just went there and got a degree in something. I’m not so good at math.

Clara Lemlich stan account (silby), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 19:27 (five years ago)

The worst math camper better at math than most Hampshire students probably, which is funny

Clara Lemlich stan account (silby), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 19:27 (five years ago)

Heh, one of the student teachers was a Hampshire student. He had a bit different angle.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 19:35 (five years ago)

There were a bunch of other summer things going on at the same time, Feldenkrais camp, drum majorettes, you name it.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 19:36 (five years ago)

...and another Top 20, barely, finish, in Classic Reggae Music.

Did I tell you about Tony Orlando and the Brill Building?

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 21:12 (five years ago)

Sorry, wrong quiz.

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 21:12 (five years ago)

Oh, good anonymization there, Leee!

A Stop at Quilloughby (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 5 May 2021 21:12 (five years ago)

May I ask you what your usual threshold is for submitting?
