Oooh - Fall as in Autumn! I was puzzled for a minute there thinking you were talking about the Kheops game, the Fall!

I'll skip the tournament this year but based on past experiences I can heartily recommend it as great brain-boiling fun to anyone who is not afraid of spending sleepless nights thinking laterally, analyzing databases of screenshots, refining their google searches and trying to remember the title of that one game that was similar to that other game which was recommended in that half-forgotten forum thread about yet another game.

I perused the forums but still couldn't quite figure out what it was

Sorry for being a bit ignorant, but what does it involve exactly? It sounds interesting, but I do have a bit on during that time...

This thread explains it in more detail, but the short version is: each week a new series of tasks is posted, testing the participants' puzzle-solving skills or adventure game knowledge (usually both). Those can be anything fom clips of music to identify to anagrams to decipher. People privately send in their guesses and gather points for the correct answers.

We've locked those threads away in the crypt, Diego, but we usually have a little bit of everything. Pop in tomorrow night to see if it catches your interest.

Lucien,
You're having entirely too much fun this year. Come by for a visit when you get back, even if you don't play.
