Re: Hello
Sarah,
Go ahead, what would you like to talk about?
Puzzles are always a good topic around here, but I'm wiling to talk abotu just about anything and if I know the other flooblers I'm sure they'll start chiming in. |

Re: Hello
Hi there, I found you by searching for "logic problems" it's a great site. I wanted to know if submitted problems went through some sort of review process before they were approved for posting. Also, is there some time frame for posting an official solution to a problem? |

Re: Hello
Usually, if somebody submits a problem, it will appear on the site before its solution. The solution follows after a few days.
Yes, puzzles are reviewed everyday by journeymen and scholars (two higher ranks of flooble) or by levik, the director. Ten problems are able to be voted on per day, but only one or two are posted daily.
Keep submitting problems, and watch any by yours truly! |

'Scuse me. There's supposed to be a "for" between "watch" and "any". Oops. |

Re: Hello
Yes they do, but it's usually not for testing for a solution (though that happens sometimes);
Your problem may take a while to get to the queue. During that time, check out the other problems here and make sure it's not a duplicate of anything! :) |

Yes. It's kind of disheartening, but I got over it.

Re: Hello
Thanks Captain and gamer for the helpful information. I've only had time to do a couple of logic problems. One was gamer's " timely manner". It was enjoyable and challenging. As I was doing it I wondered if a reviewer checked how much thought and care went into the phrasing of the submitted problems. Gamer's use of the words "notice", "know" and "came in" (as opposed to "went in") were critical to my initial determination that B had to have personally observed the order of arrival from inside and therefore had to be either first or second to arrive. If someone submitted a problem with less precise clues, would a reviewer's catch it? In other words when we start a problem, are we assured that there are sufficient precise clues to lead us to the solution, or could we get stuck working on a problem in which the given clues would be insufficient to allow us to reach a correct answer? |

Re: Hello
Cogitater,
In answer to your questions, I will direct you to this earlier post.
It is an excerpt, from the the book of Levikus, beginning at chapter 2, verse 1.
I encourage you to read it carefully. |
