hey everyone

hello

hi

i didn't finish the last one because I was watching 24...doh!

good episode

priorities

the music got a bit hokey

sudoku must come first

mission impossibleish

vcr anyone?

Come on Jean Smart, don't get seduced by your husband!

i have tivo at home, but i didn't want to have to spend more time rewatching it

plus, you just can't look away nor can you turn it off

Morning all

hello

hi Sprite!

Hi Krys! What kind of medium is this?

taking me more green numbers than I usually use for a medium...

hey moe

sup

nothing much, totally realized when i got back to my room i still have ur phys test w/ me

after bringing it to TLR

no problem, ill get it later

done

nice, im 3/4th

andy, you are a smartie

done too!

I think it's easier for me on paper, though

lol, ty

so are you, krys

i love the subscripts on the actual page

yes I'm done...goodnight

and done

done, too, night

the subscripts on the what?

the actual page = website aka in the boxes, red and green numbers

ahh

yes, very handy

ooo, im actually ranked now!

on the village elders? or the other one?

so nice to finish this one early when the last one took me all day. 'night all!

cream o' the crop, im only 5 pts behind you

im not on the elders list by 4 pts

i wish there were 2 puzzles/day

ya, but mines averaged over the last month, urs, this week

that would show true commitment, one in the morning, one in the afternoon

tis true

alright, im off

later moe

moe, do u know how to get hold of stuart hall's email?

darn, i missed him

im out too, gl to all! (it was more fun than hard)

no, i don't know

oh well, google's not exactly helpful on this one

hey u guys are college d00ds... tell me if u like my new site

http://LyricWiki.org

(i'm open to any feedback, good or bad)

looks pretty cool to me

:) thanks!

im always looking for lyrics so ill be sure to add this to my faves

oh sweet :D
o'

oh that is a neat idea

looks nice so far, but i havent tried any of my real unknown artists, that i would really appreciate the lyrics for being on a website

*i'm glad that at least a couple ppl like it

like what artists?

i know ur bot hasnt gotten this far, hence the reason i havent tried him yet, but Kristian Stanfill

(btw, the bot filling the site is only on letter J... he'll get through the rest of the alphabet in a couple days more)

Alex Nifong

i don't recognize those names... what genre are they?

I looked at your site earlier - I was looking for a way to browse and couldn't find one - are you planning to add links or instructions to construct ways to view lists of songs/artist?

on iTunes they would be under Inspirational

yup... that seems vital

i think i'm going to make links to browse Artists, Albums, Songs by their first letter (on the main page)

awesome

andy:cool

i'm glad i got to show a friendly group of IronSudokians before releasing to the general populus :) good feedback

Example of artists: Wilco, Sigur Ros, Arcade Fire, and etc.

i just searched the band Honestly, and its not there, but again, i totally understand that they arent they, as they arent that big

*they arent there, as they.....

hmm... if you ever feel "Inspired" to do so, you should add them

i'm sure their other fans would love it :)

it's a wiki - you can add them !

in the upload file toolbox?

I mean the fans can add them theirselves

which file type r they supposed to be?

oh no, sorry

not a file upload

if you just type in the name in the serach bar and click "Go"

it will ask you if you want to make a new page

done

congrats :)

and then click the 'create this page'?

yup

you definitely did quite nice, i would prob add the ability to search and sort by artist, album, song, lyrics (in and of themselves) so that if there is a word like 'Honestly' they can easily sort between the lyrics that have 'honestly' in it, and the band, or album names...you get the picture

clever

i'll def work on that

so do you have any meta data on the pages?

can you search by those things?

maybe you could match the meta data to cddb (or freedb) so you could like cross link or whatever

well just done

night all

aight, now im actually leaving, gl to all, ty to motive force for the wiki, i will definitely promote it, and see what i can do on putting more lyrics of my small artists on there for ya, cya

woo hoo! done with no guessing - I feel good - now less than 5 hrs of sleep - bleagh

This was a difficult medium, methinks

MotiveForce Just looked at your site and it interesting but the UI is not obvious. HAve you thought about using Amazons webservices as a front end to set artist info etc. Not so hard. We have done it on a site I have Swophit.com (french)

Sprite and sherb are you there?

hi ferrari, I'm here :D ...how you feeling today?

stuck the second time. wtf? is that a BSFH (bastard sudoku from hell)?

ok, a bit stunned by yesterday you stag antler you, where did it all come from

lol!! I think someone needed to vent, and picked a fight...

That's what it felt like, hope she felt better. are you ok?

Sprite must have gone, hope she's ok

I'm fine, thanks... was all along, these things don't bother me... but it did bother me that sprite had to leave

(((hugs))) for sprite

Not seen her on babble today but she's logged on here. must go,all finished these difficulty levels don't make sense.lol sherb

later ferrari... I have lots of green letters, and not clue what to do next... time for coffee...

the 'Who's Online' can be misleading... I never log off...

I don't log off babble but I do here, it's easier not to, see you later :)

sherb - :-) use numbers not letters

I am here. Life is a bit challenging at the moment, but nothing we cannot handle. Thanks for caring :)

hi sprite... good to hear you're OK :D

pthomp - ;)

I started full speed this morning, but life got in the way and I am only just back to try and finish this baaaaad sudoku. Will babble later. Is it a good grid today?

Babble is good today... but I'm stuck on this sudoku... still haven't had my morning coffee... might as well wait until lunch now... :D

lol! I have been stuck 3 times now, but every time I discover it's my own shortsightedness that is blocking me.

what are those red and blue bars and the red cross for next to your names?

just bobbed back to see if you're ok Sprite, defending you yesterday got me in trouble but I couldn't let it go it was all a bit OTT don't you think?

tuco: flags.

tuco = they are flags to signify our countries... you get them if you go Pro...

Ferrari: did you defend me? You mean that I got irritated by Jac?

oh, okay, I couldn't see the white backgrounds. so it is France and Norway?

Holland, actually :)

hehe. sorry.

Norway!! it's the St George's Cross - for England... :D

but cool. thanks

I thought the English flag had diagonal bars too??

She had a go at me for agreeing with you, read the log back, it goes on for a while with a sprinkling of f words

tuco - you're thinking of the Union Jack - red, white and blue - that's the flag of the United Kingdom...

yea, Thanks for clearing that up.

Argh, I was afraid of that. Picked definitely the wrong person to give a hint to. Better get to the babble log then, thanks :)

bad tempered and foul mouthed...

She did eventually apologise. Babble won't tax you too much today Sprite and there isn't a k. LOL see you all later

I wouldn't mind but I emailed Dr God in her defence when she got in trouble with Tuvo that time

Hi everybody

*g* tuco, are you american?

finished... =)

Hi everyone... I've missed the last 4 puzzles as were were away.... how were they?

looks like it's been 'interesting' on Babble though!

Welcome back, Ginger

ty David!

I think the puzzles have been rated medium and hard the last few days

Nothing crazy

ok... I guess I will be propping up the rankings again LOL

nrgh, restarting for the 2nd time

actually, I'll have to have a go tonight

got to get back to work

Good luck later, SeaBrie

I'm done!

Good job, Ginger

I'm a bit stuck (as usual)

I would try help but I'm not sure how on here!

I'll see it eventually, but thanks

Aha, there's something now!

Got it!

Argh this is driving me mad!

hey ginger, you're back =)

at last! done it

good morning & good luck all

hi all

hi Eric

bye :)

hi all

Hi

is there a way to place all of the possible entries in at one fell swoop or must they be selected individually?

don[t think so

welcome

done...that wasnt all that easy

harder than yesterday, I thought

hi Babs!!

shut up buda

hi EB !! :D

Babs...lovely day isn't it??

you talking about the weather or the troll?? lol :D

both!! : )

lol!! well it's cold, miserable, windy and raining over here. and that troll is pathetic in the extreme! just don't get the quality we uesd to! lol ;D

once you start filtering candidates based on quads, the puzzle falls apart and solves quickly

haven't heard of quads, 131313. I just muddled along and ended up guessing. : /

I'm SOOOOOOOOO BORED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

go find something to do then

i'm doing this it's either this or pay attention in class

I pick this

pay attention in class, it's better for you :)

and besides i love sudoku's

Babs...just sent a note to Dr_God... weather here is beautiful, sunny & almost 70 degrees...(of course, I'm at work...)

batgirl - what class are you taking?

nice one, EB : ) ooooh, your weather sounds fab! send some my way.

we heard

*sends warm sunshine to Babs* it might take a day or 2 to get you!!

quads: http://www.angusj.com/sudoku/hints.php

Wow...another piece of cake puzzle!

geography

thanks for that, 131313 :D

stop it

cool, thanks, EB *checks weather forecast*.... wooot! you're not wrong! :D

oh so now he's a hermaphrodite

ROFL!!

ROFL!!

STOP

The weather here is great too....60-70 and sunny. Typical spring in Colorado....

You are acting like your in junior high

batgirl - I sent a note to Dr_God...it should resolve itself soon....

what age is junior high over there?

yay it's annoying

12-13

yeah, that's what I thought about the little troll

I bet he still doesn't like girls

Well i'm a 10th grader so i say shut up

Shut up buda

what age is grade 6?

Enough already...just ignore the troll

Babs - 11

15

ahh, thanks, EB. oh nooo, more trolls. :(

time for me to go, this is boring. Sorry there isn't a button to hide the chat log for you guys who are still playing. Laters : )

I'll be hiding the chat log for awhile...catch you later Babs, batgirl, answer & checketts...

oooh! there is a button to hide the chat log!

bye

bye batgirl

i'm noy leaving i was saying bye to babs

Babs...no...I just minimize the screen so I can't see it...(after this post...)

done! may you be troll free...

yay no troll! :)

Alright...I've finished my Sudoku for the day, see you tomorrow -

by

Alas, work calls....

bye

Hello Everyone!

nornna

DONE

Awesome British16chica

Nailed That Puppy!

Rank me, Baby!

hello

finished

is this one as hard as yesterday's?

where is everyone?

watching you

ooh are you a stalker?

well I'm not

I'm here

everyone else is though

hi how are you?

tired. You?

tired also. have you finished the puzzle?

no, just started

so far i found 1 number. oh well ill get there.

have you been to babble yet?

Yeah, I actually got here from babble

I like sudoku better though

are there alot of words today? ive never finished a babble. but yeah i like sudoku better too cause its more realistic (like i can finish a sudoku but babbles are awful)

woot found another one

I haven't the slightest idea. I can usually only get up to a hundred points

or like 20 words or something

words are not my friends. if im really trying, i might get 50 words, but usually i run out at about 30.

got another one.

woot another one.

ok im guessing now. hopefully i wont get screwed up too bad.....but it shouldnt matter since ive got a checkpoint saved.

so far im right. i hope it stays that way......
dont mind me im talking to myself.

Done and Done

aww man how did u finish that fast? what # did you look at?

I don't remember how I solved it

it's just the usual methods

dang. oh well.
oh yeah.....YAY BARISAXPAT!!!!! *insert fireworks here*

hello all

hello

hey scribble..did you get your homework done?

yes but the way today's looks id rather have a colic baby...lol

lol

its not really that bad....but its just tedious

sounds like my job ;)

what do you do?

custodian

cool....ive never met a custodian before...except at school

i work at a school

elementary, middle or high?

elementary

elementary

elementary kids are really rowdy sometimes.....those were the days...*sigh*

give a 5 yrs 5 minutes and they can destroy any room...lol

true...my parents run a day care center so believe me i know

ahh so THAT's why you almost traded for th e baby...she would have done your homework and your parents could have babysat....i see your plan now! lol

i didnt think about that at the time...good idea though! lol

oh gosh, i got almost done and now i have to start over.
DANG IT!!!

I did the same thing! that's impossible!

Done! that wasn't too bad - only had to backtrack once

macuser--i envy you.

lol - nothing to envy, really

whos the cat in your icon?

he's my spoiled rotten cat, Bongo :)

aww hes so cute!!

scribble, if it helps you at all, I started by figuring out which number went in the 8th column, 8th row

thank you scribble, he thinks so too ;)

thanks i ll try that....and your cat has every right to believe hes cute!!!

thank you scribble :)

uhh i have many possibilities for column 8 row 8.....

me too

row 4 colum 8????

yes, but you can easily eliminate 3 of those possibilities leaving you with just 2 and from there you can figure out which one goes there

no, frogprincess... 8th column, 8th row

oh sorry

no clue

ohhhh

thanks!

im lookin...

ummm..what were people talking about yesterday with red and green numbers?

scribble - in the 1st row, column 7 & 8 you should only have 2 possibilites - therefore, you know nothing else can go in those columns

blueskies... use your shift key when you click on a boxx and it'll put a green number in for possibility

oooh...ok i see.......

you mean columns 8 & 9?

i still have 3 possibilities there...

yes, I'm sorry... TP17 is right... columns 8 & 9

tx macuser. bongo is very cute btw..as for spoiled, i'm sure he's got nothing on my kitty's attitude! lol

lol, oh he's got an attitude, that's for sure. I won't tell him you consider him cute ;)

he already knows?? ;)

absolutely!

ok i think i got it...its 8 right?

no

so the puzzle is done, and i cant get another until midnight central time?

dang it...

i love sudoku

let my clarify... when I said you had those 2 possibilites in columns 8 & 9, that doesn't mean you can delete them on down the columns

it's addicting tho

oh ok...

ok i got it thanks!!

GOT IT :)

but you can deduce that one of those numbers can't go in either of those columns - it will go in the 6th column, 7th row

YAY!!
sorry i figured it out...TY mac!!!!!!!!!*******

hey (this is unrelated) I like your name, macuser

YAY scribble!!!

thak you wolfman :)

*thank

np mac

and with that, I bid you all a fond farewell. good luck!

syl

bye mac thanks for the help!!!!!!

this one is harder than any i've ever done

they're all hard to me...

i did one yesterday that was a cinch but this one is HARD...

i hated the one yesterday...thanks for that boost of confidence....*sarcasm*

sorry

I wasn't talking about one on here, I only heard about these things yesterday, just got on here like 5 minutes ago

:S

i was talking about one that my math teacher gave me

oh...im sorry....these are all really hard. the ones on paper are easier.

yeah i like this way though

my math teacher is evil

it's cleaner

lol

why what does your teacher do?

i started a sudoku trend at my school and now a bunch of people are asking me if they can have a sudoku to do so me and this guy started creating these sudokus that are in weird shapes and they are really hard

weird shapes? how does that work?

my teacher gives us detention even if we look at her funny....and we are not allowed to say *duh*

wow, that sucks. I've tried making sudokus before and it didn't really work.

umm hang on ill try to explain the weird shapes

ok

they look like this: (# means a number)

oops here:
###
###
#########
#########
###
######

holy crap that'd be like impossible! I'm having enough trouble with the original kind!

they are kind of easy once you get the hang of it...

really? it seems like I could never do it

we made a 20x20 once and it had numbers 1-10 and letters a-j me and my friend were the only ones who could solve it...even our dumb math teacher couldnt

wow! That's impressive

man... that would be really hard

it was like huge....it took up a whole sheet of paper.
it was like on ultra expert level cause you could only find one # at a time

nice... my friend Josh is getting on soon, I'll introduce you

cool

Scribble, meet Flame Dude. Flame Dude, meet Scribble

i try to get my friends on here but their older siblings hog the computer

Sup

lol I'm at school, my mom doesn't know. :P

that I'm on sudoku I mean

haha :)

i dont understand....are you at school?

yeah, on a comp at school. My mom doesn't know that I'm on Sudoku.

Speaking of... I better go. Catch you later
