Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions
It was a tricky one. I've read a guy from India figured out the code and he's been posting the (future) results and people on Twitter have been begging him to take it down because (I'm not on twitter so I don't know) it's easy to come across it and ruin the game.

If there was anything that depressed him more than his own cynicism, it was that quite often it still wasn't as cynical as real life.

The dumbest thing I've ever bought
was a 2020 planner.
"Does anyone ever think about Denethor, the guy driven to madness by staying up late into the night alone in the dark staring at a flickering device he believed revealed unvarnished truth about the outside word, but which in fact showed mostly manipulated media created by a hostile power committed to portraying nothing but bad news framed in the worst possible way in order to sap hope, courage, and the will to go on? Seems like he's someone we should think about." - Dave_LF
