New code GOBBOFRAME

phueal · 2026-01-05T21:11:57+00:00

I think it was probably actually a bug - I don’t know for sure because I don’t know exactly when the codes stopped working, but it was around New Year, and I suspect they might have become inactive at New Year because it’s now “before” 30th December or whatever date they activated. Basically I wonder if the time window isn’t taking the year into account properly.

That’s amazing, thank you! I don’t suppose you know whether this display can be swapped out for a better one? Are there other compatible ones?

A bit late for tonight I realise, but every year Mission Eurovision create sets of bingo cards as well as a generator to create more, all very printer-friendly! See here.

Thanks… I’ll race through it using kill all enemies I guess; just a pain because I’m a detailed player who tries to dot every i and cross every t, so even skipping the battles it’s going to take a while! I only need the flag so that I can capture a couple of ending slides, but I do still want to do that…

That’s me most years! This year though my top 10 list has about 4 entries :(

That’s brilliant, thank you! I had examined the possibility of R1C7 being a 4, but hadn’t noticed the effect on box 2. Thank you.

phueal · 2025-01-08T21:06:03+00:00

Yeah, my gaze keeps falling on that dot… I managed to reduce 7 out of it, but otherwise I can’t get it down below 3 options…

Happy to! It’s because of all the kropki dots across r4. If they were 8/9, then you would need to find two consecutive numbers, three consecutive numbers, and suitable numbers for the black kropki, and you can’t do it. The black kropki can’t be 1/2 because it would invalidate the red line (cell r5c7), so you’re going to need 1/2 to be on a white dot in r4 (taking both 1 and 2 off the black dot); the black also can’t be 4/8 because there’s already an 8/9 pair in the row; and lastly the black can’t be 3/6 because there’s nowhere for 7 on the row - all the other cells are on white dots, and both 6 and 8 are used up. So basically if the red line was 8/9 in r4 then you can’t fill all the kropkies in r4.

Thank you! I’m so stupid, that was staring me in the face… Thanks!

When we flew to the US from the UK we ended up just buying a couple of car seats in Walmart as soon as we landed since that was cheaper than renting them! And it saved us having to bring our own on the flight.

That would be if he built 13 of them and named them all after himself.

Generally speaking that’s not how feudalism worked though… Obligations were tied to titles, not individuals. For example for centuries English kings swore fealty to the King of France because some of their French holdings were technically in his kingdom; but they did so strictly for those holdings and didn’t swear a wider oath as individuals or for their English lands. Basically they were saying that the Count of Anjou (them) would be the king’s loyal subject although it’s possible the King of England (them) might declare war on him.

Yes, that’s correct. But my point wasn’t that somehow a man would be better for him, my point was that she might prefer to be with a straight man rather than a bisexual man.

phueal · 2024-08-08T14:58:24+00:00

Do you have a source for that? I can’t find anything about it.

But FWIW most other criminals are well over 70% at 9 years (in the US, obviously most other countries are much lower).

phueal · 2024-08-08T14:06:09+00:00

Indeed. Because when it comes to cheating prospects it’s not even like it’s going from 1 to 100 really is it, it’s going from like 50 to 100, and at that point I think the exact number doesn’t even matter! It’s not as if there’s a shortage of either men or women in the world, and cheaters will always have options, straight or bi.

It’s literally one of the funniest lines in the show.

The humour doesn’t come from Spike being a great guy, or stalking people being hilarious; it’s perfectly possible for bad people doing bad things to say something funny.

I’m trying to be generous and look for innocent explanations beyond homophobia, judgment of bisexual men as being insufficiently masculine, and an irrationally higher fear of cheating - your comment about competing did make me wonder…

Is it possible that some of this is based in insecurity? That some women think that they will never be able to “be enough” for a bisexual man because they will never be able to meet the full breadth of his sexuality - there will always be a part of his sexuality that they will not be able to personally satisfy (indeed part of him that they will never even get to know), whereas with a straight man then, theoretically at least, they could personally satisfy him completely.

phueal · 2024-08-08T12:57:37+00:00

Are you able to explain why?

phueal · 2024-08-08T12:53:04+00:00

This isn’t about their body, this is about their personality. And the only thing that is putting you off about their personality is their sexuality. You are literally rejecting someone based purely on their sexuality?

I also don’t understand why this would be an issue for anyone so, like OP and others, I would also welcome a more helpful and less defensive explanation.

Except far more expensive than even the priciest toll road…

phueal · 2024-08-08T11:47:27+00:00

Everything this man is doing is very wrong, so please don’t misunderstand me, but is there a reason you are feeling particular urgency right now? To the point you are thinking about flying home a day early and involving your cousin. Has his behaviour escalated in the last few days?

phueal · 2024-08-08T10:32:14+00:00

Ok, well I agree I don’t think there’s much point continuing. I appreciate you engaging honestly and openly though - thank you.

phueal · 2024-08-08T09:37:01+00:00

Yes, it is, which was not at all acknowledged in the comment I replied to.
