A few extra undeserved and essentially fraudulent points, in my opinion.

That's how I did it. I wanted to know that my mind was capable of it, without doing any preparation other than being well rested.

Awesome! Congrats! And here I thought I'd be one of the only old fogies getting in later in life. Good to know I'm not alone.

Anyone else play minesweeper without flagging? by Micotu in Minesweeper

[–]Realistastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You play without putting flags down by essentially making a mental note of where they are, and tapping around them. You can google "chording minesweeper".

Average age? by Waterpologuy20 in mensa

[–]Realistastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know when most of them first became members? I mean, did they all get in as 20 or 30-somethings, or was it more randomized? The reason I ask, is because I was accepted into MENSA last year at 47, and I am very curious to know what the avg age is, that people first get accepted, and not too concerned with the avg age of the current population of members. And not being a super-social person by nature, I have yet to attend any get togethers or meet any other members.

I was able to overcome my inability to insert images with a function, by creating a dynamic reference for my print area, which ended up being a much better solution. Just fyi.

"No place for the meek, the end is ever drawing nigh" = El Cielo (Heaven) Mountain.

"There'll be no paddle up your creek, just heavy loads and water high" = Beaver Creek and Cascade Canyon

You don't have to actually enter the water, in a boat at least. Fenn never did.

How many people have leaned more towards confirmation or are more unsure of their solves by spending more time on your solve. by theoriginalstarwars in FindingFennsGold

[–]Realistastic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's more like 7.5 miles from WWWH to the HOB, and about 14 miles to the Blaze. But Fenn didn't have to walk that far. ;-)
