So you are interested in the money then? After all, there's plenty of charities, and communities that could benefit hugely from the cash if you're not bothered about it.

And the point would be for me to know that I've done something on my own, which probably took hours of work, which some toerag who can't be bothered to work it out himself isn't going to profit from. (At least until someone else solves it, and shares it on here.)

Horses for courses. I just didn't like the way people were jumping on the other guy for what i took to be some reasonable comments. (The ones about bias i'm not commenting on, as i've not had enough exposure to comment on)

I think I'll ask him anyway:

Me: So, Adrian, where's the cube?

Him: [censored to protect my cash]

Me: Cool, I'll be back with it in a few minutes.

What I don't get is why people come here to announce there's no way they'll ever share information with us if they sort the puzzles out first.

... Okay. Thank you for letting us know that.

I'm not sure what the purpose is in telling us you're working on your own.

Good luck, and enjoy. Is that the appropriate response?

Or are you asking us to stop sharing answers here because you think you'd like to beat us in the race to the finish, and our public board is getting in the way of your efforts?

I'm not sure where you got the idea that I wasn't 'interested' in the money-I just said I'd keep 88% of it for myself. However it's unlikely that I'll win, logistically difficult to reward everyone on the forum and laughable that I would donate it to a charity. Do I sound like a vegetarian?

TP wasn't 'attacked' for his opinions on the cards, most find the idea of running to the boards and cutting and pasting the right answers slightly tiresome however find the forums as a place to discuss the cards useful. One of the best things about this game (even though it isn't really a game) is that it doesn't patronise you and does set us difficult tasks. There is more to this game than pieces of cardboard.

People were irked at his attitude to unfiction and ARG collaboration in general-as you appear to be. If you could explain how you individually followed the Receda trail or wrote a book to be published on PPC I would be interested to hear it. How do you think the game could be played without people interacting with each other? A major part of ARGs is that it draws you away from behind the PS2 controller and encourages you to deal with other people. Read Mokey Fraggle's, Juxta's and GuyP's response to TP which says (generally) what most people here think and certainly says it more eloquently and eruditely than I'm to able are.

However at least TP says what he thinks in a reasonably enjoyable and forthright manner without hiding behind infuriatingly snotty rhetorical questions to voice his unenlightened opinions. (Sorry TP, you seem like a nice enough chap but you do speak some utter rubbish)

Kraed- Do one

Gotta problem with vegetarians, Chris?

Er no peer bach, thought you were playing to set fire to anyone and anything in #syzygy...

European Chris, I'm sorry that my

Oh not another person I'm going to have to have a drink with

Think of Unfiction as those ten people who are in a bar speaking loudly and allowing other people look over their shoulder-we're the nice clever kids in class. Guy's ejaculated a think here though.

See you on the 25th...you're buying (me a steak sandwich).

[Bamboozled]

Fair enough. (Guy's reasoning, not the steak sandwich At London prices? Are you crazy. AND you'll want chips. I can tell!)
