Re: April 2024 Challenge -- A Total Eclipse of the Sun

Dick Ebersol paid $50,000 to be told who the song is about, although he had to sign an agreement not to tell anyone else.

WOW, Nice to know that signing an agreement not to tell anyone else worked - It's so good to know how worthwhile a signed agreement is. It's almost as good as that one that ...

Re: Eggcelent Design Contest 2024

It's the simplicity of the designs I like. Such minimal detail and yet such accurate depiction. No one can dispute they are feet, nor wonder what the eggs are supposed to represent. Where some of the designs lose focus at smaller resolutions. Your's do the opposite. They hold the detail very well ...

Re: April 2024 Challenge -- A Total Eclipse of the Sun

Nucker says:

Apparently, this only happens once every 400 hundred years. But in my time here I remember being at least at 2 and missing out on several that took place outside of my location.

Re: April 2024 Challenge -- A Total Eclipse of the Sun

I have to admit I sat on an Airfield in Kent in the UK in 1999 and was lucky to have a cloudless sky when the "Eclipse" occurred. One of only a very few places the cloud didn't ruin it.

It was unbelievable. All the birds all went quiet, the temperature drop absolutely rapid, much faster than the ...

I must say, being a "Graphic Designer" must make winning each year quite easy. Can we change the rules so that the designer has to show by calculation the aerodynamics of how the egg would spin when dropped or thrown. LOL

Agreed, AFTER I was cleared - but before it states for all to read "Delf Vilolating Fog of War" Which is a statement. However, as I said, it is not about me/ More of suggesting a procedural change: that would prevent misunderstandings

Re: Fog of war and liars

I am a little clearer in my mind at the moment and can concentrate more on what the issues are.

First, “Fog of War” – the fog is controlled by the system – it puts a double question mark on what the game decides needs to be hidden.
If a person can see information then that information is not ...

At Donelladan

There is so much truth in that statement about Hull - lol

The question I would like to know is:-

What was Lonous's real complaint - Was it being proven a lair ?? Or that I prove my innocence?
