Yeah, i have trouble updating, and getting new levels, it always locks up. Anyone have the same problem?

I just got a spam e-mail with a subject line encouraging me to "expatriate fashionably."

That sounds like a comment.

No comment.

Let's just keep on fighting.

He'd never ever could make sense.

I have Mysteries of Pittsburgh but haven't read it yet. Does he call that thing the cloud factory? That's funny.

Bah.... no html...
Let me restate:
Tom, excellent work as usual.
I like how the "Cloud Factory" (ala that book "The Mysteries of Pittsburgh" which you can type into Amazon.com YOURSELF) is actually generating clouds. Probably just a coincidence.

Well, they're running a whole marathon and we're running somewhere between 0.5 and 3.0 miles.

The chicago runners have way more muscles than your guy. Going for the intellectual look?

4405. Tom 7 (gs82.sp.cs.cmu.edu) – 06 Apr 2006 15:19:08 [ Random Distance Shirts 2006 ]

That's what I put on my black friday letter in the "other" category. ;)

4404. Cortney (chiggins.ce.cmu.edu) – 06 Apr 2006 15:01:04 [ Random Distance Shirts 2006 ]

I like the village illustrator category.

mjn, I finally got the Huffman one... nice!

You can already sort by the number of moves it took you to solve (ctrl-v) but I don't want to give away the original solution length for levels that haven't been solved yet, because that spoils some levels.

There have definitely been times in the past where somebody has had all of the levels in triage solved. I did for a while, as did Max and bpotetz who outlasted me. Maybe pieguy and Joshua Bone as well? Anyway, the task has become much harder since those days... good luck!

one one two three five... eureka!

4400. RC (216.129.188.120) – 05 Apr 2006 23:56:51 [ UPD: Escape Beta 3 ]

Just some of my ramblings.
Perhaps another sorting option.
Sorting by number of moves (original)?
And perhaps another rating category.
the level of frustration created trying to solve it.
Just kidding.
Has anyone solved them all?
I finally got under 100 left.

Too much foil!!

4396. Sophia (c-24-218-58-208.hsd1.ma.comcast.net) – 05 Apr 2006 09:11:15 [ All decimals greater than one ]

Jeez, stuff like this really makes me worry about my memory (and the amount of aluminum foil that I chewed on when I was a child). I remember SquareOne very well, and I remember MathNet (especially the one with the gorilla, that was scary and gave me nightmares), but I have absolutely not recollection of MathMan at all...

4395. Max (mheath.stu.wesleyan.edu) – 05 Apr 2006 00:29:57 [ All decimals greater than one ]

Wow, I remember SquareOne!

4394. Sridhar (cmu-155125.res.cmu.edu) – 04 Apr 2006 14:46:51 [ Title of post ]

Second only to the related "ULTRAPOWER!"

4393. Sridhar (cmu-155125.res.cmu.edu) – 04 Apr 2006 14:44:05 [ All decimals greater than one ]

Your and my nostalgia have finally collided.

(But I too wish they had more MathNet.)

4392. MateoJD84 (sol.gac.edu) – 04 Apr 2006 14:24:55 [ All decimals greater than one ]

Wow, I totally forgot about these! Crazy! Now I'm probably going to look up 80s stuff all day.

4391. Moira (c-67-186-34-158.hsd1.pa.comcast.net) – 04 Apr 2006 10:47:01 [ All decimals greater than one ]

And they have the punky brewster theme song!

I wish they had more MathNet episodes, like the one where they recreate Rear Window.

4390. Cortney (chiggins.ce.cmu.edu) – 04 Apr 2006 10:28:06 [ All decimals greater than one ]

oh, MathMan! Thanks for the link!
