June 25, 2002 - I'm slow...

[mith]

...but I've managed to get two puzzles up for the competition, as well as the answers to the previous two puzzles. I'll try to get the competition puzzles out every two or three days (two at a time, probably). The first two are from Gomez (Neil Murrell). I've also recieved 6 more from him, 2 from Sami, 2 from Sofis (Peter Jägare), and 1 from Martin Arwin. I know that there are more people capable of making great puzzles, so send some in! I'll try to get a few done myself.

I'm having a few problems with the Minotaur email address, so if you've sent me a puzzle and aren't listed above, try sending it to mithrandir@spl.at (hopefully that will work).

And, as always, I'm trying to find ways to get the publication process running more smoothly, so if you are interested in helping, let me know. And if you're already helping, thanks.

Until next time,

Philip Newman

I'll be back in about a week with another update."

Noone forced you to say that...

No one forced you to be a jerk.

Seriously CB, you complain about me not doing stuff way too much. I do have other things to do. I expected to have time to update, and I haven't gotten to it, ok?

[CrystyB]

well that (me acting jerk-ish) 's your view on things. i was just making sure you did not forget "In The Grey Labyrinth, there is at least one unsolved puzzle at all times, available below. See if you can deduce the answer for yourself before we post it.". After all it used to be a month for puzlles, now having GLOC i thought that was over with.

And have you ever thought about my subconscious enjoying being a jerk? I don't do it on purpose, but it seems that i'm doing it not too seldom nevertheless.
