It's coming ...

As Thomas Bookmore has pointed out on the official PXC Forums, the 1st Anniversary of the Cube being found by Andy Darley in Wakerley Great Wood and leaving a hole and a card behind for fellow Cube Hunters is almost upon us - February the 2nd, 2007.

The results of a poll over there suggest that people seem to be in favour of doing something to mark the Anniversary.

One suggestion made by goldberg69 is for each of us to send a "cube" to Mind Candy's offices as we did with the paper cranes previously. As he says it might just remind them of how much we love Perplexcity.

Quote:
Any cube will do (except an ice cube, alas) a die, a rubik's cube, origami, use your imagination - but let's send some cubes to MC and see if we get any response...


Anybody here interested in participating?

Ah, go on then Very Happy

I don't know how many PXC players still check the forums here for news of things (many people seem to have drifted off into the aether), so we might need to come up with some other ways of publicising the effort.

Well so far there are about 15 positive replies on PXC forums and 5 on here so that would be about 17 cubes each to get to 333!

Oh dear. Maybe they'll have to be really small. Or maybe I'll just do one big one and write 333 on it?

Ah yes. We won't get very far if people don't know where Mind Candy lives! The address to send all your wonderful cubes to is:

Mind Candy
Battersea Studios
80 Silverthorne Road
Battersea
London
SW8 3HE

(It's posted somewhere in the original welovepuzzles thread on this cube-sending lark, but might as well put it here too!)

Cool idea!
I only check the puzzle boards themselves, so only just saw this thread... Perhaps there are others doing the same? Should a thread be posted over there?
