g.r.emlin seems to have entered one of his periodic dormant phases. While waiting for him to awake, here is a link to some banter that accompanied a game, 103, with a quite similar pattern, over several pages.

Regards,

Mike

I found 5476 puzzles, 118 of them non-minimal. Two batches are still running producing less than one puzzle per hour. Not an exhaustive search.

The distribution by rating for the minimals is

actually is awake,
merely failed to apply the
24-hour timeout

    we've seen this several times
game could close any minute now;
else, the 4-day timeout
will be reached in the early hours of Aug.25

I'm trying to post puzzles, but no moderator to validate my posts !!!

No need for a moderator, it is another problem. What do you want to do precisely

and the next game starts 3 days (+ 8hours??) after game closure

I have submitted a pattern, no confirmation yet, but if confirmed then it should run right away as game 322.
