    It took me 33 minutes to solve this one today. I always feel pretty slow when I come into these threads. I got hard stuck more than once.

    If you misunderstood the rules then no amount of deduction is going to help you, unless you manage to deduce that you misunderstood the rules.

    Ohh I think I see what you are missing. “To the right of Ruby” doesn’t mean “the one card to the right”. It means every card to the right in the same row. So it’s not just talking about Stella, but also Uma and Tina. Uma and Tina are both Pam’s neighbours.

    Edit: you asked for no spoilers, I hope this is okay. Kind of hard to explain the logic while avoiding all spoilers.

    Tap for spoiler
    • there are 2 innocents to the right of Ruby, which means there are 2 innocents and 1 criminal between Stella, Tina, and Uma.
    • 1 innocent is Pam’s neighbour, which means Tina and Uma must be an innocent and a criminal (we won’t know which is which, yet).
    • 1 innocent and 1 criminal are accounted for. 1 innocent is left. Who must it be?


  • I have a distressing memory about this from a party I went to a couple of years ago. It was mostly people in their mid 20s. One of the people I talked to was a 27 year old girl who was really into indie games. I handed her my phone with my Steam library and we chatted for 20 minutes about the games we’d been playing as she scrolled through it.

    Later in the night I found her standing slumped over in the hallway. I didn’t recognize what was happening and I got very worried. I asked “excuse me, excuse me, are you okay??”

    Still folded over, she cocked her head up to look at me. The expression on her face was somewhere between dazed and starry-eyed. She said “YOU’RE BEAUTIFUL”, reached her arms up and tried to grab my face. I ducked out of the way and left.

    Someone told me that she got like that at every party.

    The memory is seared into my brain. I still think about it and worry about her. I’ve seen fent folding in unhoused people before, but seeing it happen to someone I never would have expected really got to me.

    Every single piece he makes has so much thought, effort, research, and real skill behind it. Sometimes he needs to make half a dozen specialized tools from scratch just to machine a single part. He does it all while taking excellent footage, and somehow he has enough skill and leftover energy to edit the footage into excellent videos. He deserves mad respect.
