Thanks!  The headlines were fun to put together.  My newspaper rubber stamp was just begging to be used.

Zobraks,
I’ve always wanted to play Woodruff & the Schnibble.  From what I’ve read, I think the humor would appeal to me.

It’ll probably only be until the next update, but at the moment I’m the virtual leader of the Challenge. Cool

You’re in the lead again, Timothy!  Thumbs Up
Amazing performance at this challenge so far!
It would be nice to see you so motivated at some other “normal” (screenshot) quizzes too . Yum

w00t!!!!! Cool

A lot of hard work and screenshot browsing, though…

One-off fortunate circumstances for the AAGC:
- these are my last couple of weeks at my current job (my last day will be the day before the AAGC ends)
- work is slow (seriously, I have about three hours (max!) of work to do every eight-hour day)
- I don’t give a damn (I’m looking forward to my new job, and in the meantime it’s not like they can fire me now)
- a computer migration (the day before the AAGC started) reset the firewall so I can access AG from work again

This has more or less been my day job these past two weeks, and unless they firewall AG again, it’ll more or less be my day job until the AAGC ends… Tongue Grin
And you and zobraks are still kicking my ass, while I have trouble keeping up with Trunkyo, am leapfrogging with chrissie and feeling Phlebas’s hot breath down my neck. Tongue
I really don’t know how you guys do it…

Dear Players: Due to a major puzzle glitch of my own making coupled with a small family emergency (stranding by recalcitrant vehicle), I will not be able to put up the new puzzles until tomorrow morning.  If you feel it’s necessary as the week goes on, I will extend the deadline for week 4 week until next Sunday.  In the meantime, I’ll post the answers and the current scores in a few minutes.

Oh, and Happy Halloween!

I fixed your score, Timo.  Carrying the 1 is just so difficult to remember.  Wink

I don’t recall that blue-masked guy from BS2.
And I’ve played this game twice!
