Of Mind Games! This is my puzzle site, at http://mindgames.iwarp.com/ I'm gonna start off by answering some Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Is it a rip-off of the GL?
A: Yes, but aren't all good puzzle sites?

Q: Chimera? Is that you? Is that a rip-off of Minotaur? Isn't it kind of corny? Did you come up with it when you were twelve?
A: Yes, yes, yes, yes, and yes.

Q: Did you write that puzzle yourself?
A: Yes.

Q: Is it badly worded and difficult to understand?
A: I believe so.

Q: If they were able to figure out what in the world you were talking about, would most GLer's be able to solve this puzzle without firing any synapses in their brain whatsoever?
A: That's the plan.

So check it out, and since I don't have a forum, you can discuss it here. Or something.

Nice Quake3 lettering
And a note of (constructive) critisism.... many non Americans haven't the foggiest how many ounces there are in a quart.
You people really need to adopt the metric system overthere....

What's a 'Metric System' then?

"It must be great being a Quadclops". said Felfon
"Er! yeah, sometimes" replied Squith.
"Why only sometimes then?" enquired Felfon
"I have trouble keeping all four monocles in place at times!" sighed Squith.

Correct me if I'm wrong (I'm just a stupid European) but it seems to me that an ounce is a unit of weight, whereas a pint and a quart are units of volume.
So only if the paint's density equals that of water does 32 ounces equal 1 quart.

The imperial system must die. Too much to pointlessly memorize. I hate it. And I'm an American.
