well, how would you fit 2x11(plus all other) in 16 spaces?

It was annoying to do the text in gimp, but ended up good - just this^ reason alone made it good.

Could it be that there are too many 1s in that line then? There are two 1s that stand right in the middle between two boxes.

I have copies of [Windows] 3.1, 3.11, 95, and 98, too. Not to mention various versions of MS-DOS

no. I said i *drew* it. And i test the stuff... They just didn\'t fit - i wasn\'t going to add 3 or more columns just to fit them in.

lynx,

That last puzzle was okay, but I didn\'t like the fact that the only way I could solve it was to color it in when I was halfway done, and compare what I saw to your clue.  The rest I had to guess (correctly) and draw in myself, because I couldn\'t find any other way to solve the other half of the puzzle.

However, it kept me entertained for an hour or so, so thanks!!  :D

How I set my timezone:

ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Antarctica/Davis /etc/localtime

Xandria, I think it is possible with the extra clues - but it\'s hard for me to test it, since i drew it and pretested it.
The clues are really important in that matter.
(there\'s always the option of giving it the inverted image, but that would be too easy even for an example)
You had fun!!! :D My goal is achieved then. :] And I forgot: congrac! ;)


Psychology 30??? You had psy 1, psy 2, ... , psy 29? uhmm, someone has seen the Silence of the lambs n too many times! :D

Chain

This is a multiple step puzzle, something like a pipe, except that I tried to make it solvable from further stages too. Start at the beginning and make your way through.

As always, don\'t post solutions here, anything else is wanted, i mean welcome. :) You can pm me the solution if you\'re not sure it\'s correct.

---------------------------------------------
1. Incorporating a few PS aspects, this exclamation is key. Remove all the double (recursively) letters (assassins! -> ins) and gather the remaining letters.

\"He who drinks my blood,
tastes my steel!\"

2. Shuffle the letters until you get two words, each containing a bit operator. They are connected; this pic somewhat fits the description they give:

3.2. The bit operators make up a name of a renown mage of the night. Tell me his nickname. (optional)
3.1. Write the operators on the dashes(poor box replacements :/) and add the missing letters on the underscores to get the name of a rl-famous elf impersonator.
- - _ - - - _    _ _ _ _ _

4. Remove the doubles again, ignoring the two operators (just look at the new letters). Shuffle to get a synonym for a monster.

5. Sum the first and the last letter (their place in the alfabet) to get a new one and then remove that letter from the original string.

6. Expand the acronym you got as a result.

7. The end. :)

--------------------------------------------------

Keep your brain alive, solve a puzzle. :D
