Working my way through the stages of grief. I know we’re done, but I’m all the way up to bargaining.
Isn’t there some way we can keep this? Corporate sponsorship? An appeal to the CEO?
Reconsiderrrrrrrrr !!!!!!
These 2 weeks are going to be surreal.
I thought the white board was a good idea, but it’s not working out well in practice.
If they want to make it work, they’re going to have to make it more of a big deal. More concrete and final. Something like “okay, I’m locking in my guess on clue 2”. Then, reveal the guess before the crystal ball is opened.
It would be the most entertaining if it’s an early wild guess and will often be wrong.
As they are playing it now, it’s just not working and adds nothing good to the show.
If they want to keep going with it, their hosts are going to have to play it more serious and rule bound. They can try it this way if they still want to give it a go, but most likely, it should be quietly dropped.
A picture!
Before someone snaps a picture!
I didn’t even think of that until the show was over.
I think our puzzle masters left out the apostrophe on purpose. They knew
Hook’s a big one
Would have been too easy.
But that sacrifices clue accuracy……
I need a weekly payer that pays on Tuesdays.
Now, before you tell me it is inane to care what day the etf pays on, let me just say that of course you’re right.
What you don’t understand is that when a dividend hits my brokerage account, it stimulates a pleasure center in my brain.
Conversely, when there are no dividends in a day, I suffer horrible angst and the sorrow of deprivation. All the world seems weary, stale, flat, and unprofitable.
Anyway, help me out if you can. For whatever reason, the Tuesday slot seems hard to fill.
Monday $MAGY
Wednesday $TSII
Thursday $CHPY
Friday $XDTE
The most one can hope for here is the distribution. If you’re interested in preferred stock you could buy $PFFA which yields a couple of percentage points less but without the single stock risk.
The fact that the yield here is backed by bitcoin has nothing to do with your return. If or when bitcoin goes to the moon it’s not really going to affect you except to make your payments more secure.
I’d do better if I could hone in early whether I’m looking for a person place or thing.
For example “big but little”. If I knew I was trying to think of a person it would suddenly get a lot easier.
Obviously can’t know it from just that clue, but any thoughts about how to be thinking in the right category early?
Anyone else having trouble claiming their winnings with PayPal?
It’s gone smoothly before, but now it’s not working. Should I just try again later?
Howie just can’t stop using the word “splitting” inappropriately. I thought we were past that, but he did it again tonight. Drives me crazy.
Please vote on your preference for next week. I recommend a vote for tiers on both puzzles, but you do you.
