am I all alone on this site??

Hi everyone! I'm new to the comments section, though not to the puzzles. Everyone sounds very friendly here. Are you all regulars?

Hello ew, yes, I'm a regular. Nice to see you commenting, you too, Marisa.

I think I'll give this one a miss tonight, goo much grey colour for my tired eyes.

Hi. I am fairly new here.

A lot of sky, which makes it a bit more challenging.

Been here since the site started, but don't always post! Welcome Marisa and ew!

Hi Marissa & ew. Like Richard and of course Anne, I've been here since the start but don't often comment.
Hope you all enjoy the mental stimulation.

Richard and Mo - when did this site start? Still trying to figure out time table on puzzles. Do they come up at 12:00am in australia?

I thought about passing on this one and now, I wish I had........took me much too long!!!!

Yes Kathy, in the Eastern states except Qld in summer (they don't believe in daylight saving). As you go west time zones change. In W(estern) A(ustralia), they come in at about 10pm (i.e. 2 hours earlier).Anne (Albury) can clarify that!
Hello everyone else. I liked the green dragonfly better, but this was still fun.

Sorry Anne I meant Albany - my brain is still asleep & it's had more to do with Albury on the NSW/Victorian border!

Lots of T & E in this one!!

Kathy, the site started out in about May 2005 with just the Sudoku pages and has grown gradually into the wonderful entertainment and great friendships we now enjoy! Some, like me have been around forever, but we love to welcome newbies!

Hello Kate - yes, now that we are on daylight saving our changeover time is 10:00pm both winter & summer. I also have been on the site since just after it started, in about May 2005, I think it was, and there are still quite a few of the originals. At first you couldn't post comments then it was a while before I started posting comments but always did the puzzles.

I'm another slient participant, I have enjoyed doing the puzzles and reading comments for more than a year but never posted before. Are there any more shy hillbillies out there?

Hi everyone. I have been doing the sudokus nearly since the beginning of the site, but never posted until about last May. So Linda, I suppose I was shy like you for a year. Have a good day. Kate I believe in daylight saving and I'm in Qld. We get the change over at 11pm. A wee bit late for me most nights.

Hi, I'm a fairly regular solver but only post comments occasionally. I'm like Linda from Kentucky - read the comments a long time before I posted the first time.

However, I think I am absolutely mad, as I attempted this one without a picture and on rotation!!! Took me 42 mins - what a challenge!!

Keep up the good work, Gath, nd please keep the challenging ones coming!

Sorry - 'nd' should read 'and'.

Does anyone else time themselves, especially on the hard puzzles?

We're new as well, Hi everyone.

Rob- try a bigger challenge. How about hard, without a picture, rotation and a laptop with no mouse :)

Kathy from Yakima - if I ever get hold of a laptop with no mouse I will certainly take you up on your suggestion. However, in the meantime I will just have to keep struggling with hard, no picture and on rotation!!! LOL

Really tedious with all of the monochromatic blue. The dragonfly was easy but then it was all by the shape of each piece. I much prefer the jigsaws with color and tonal gradations.

Hi there... no picture but no rotation, i have arthritic hands so the non rotation feature is great for me, I have an orbital mouse.. so I can puzzle with one finger-cheers

A very pretty dragonfly -- not much color, but the extreme close-up photography is very pleasing. Pretty photo with all of the blue sky, but the blue did get a little boring before I was done. 4/9/08
