Something you still do now? Balin (Balin) New member Username: Balin Post Number: 9872 Registered: 4-2010 Posted on Wednesday, December 22, 2010 - 2:21 am:        Visconti: I would e-mail my answer, but I don't have your e-mail address. Everyone else: If my idea is correct, don't look at my "The origins of lateral thinking" puzzle until this one is solved.

And I'd be VERY surprised if you can guess it this early.

Is it considered a typical thing to do for children? And not for adults?

Life! Balin (Balin) New member Username: Balin Post Number: 9933 Registered: 4-2010 Posted on Thursday, December 23, 2010 - 4:38 am:        Is it less fun because now you've actually experienced life? And life is nothing like Life? Kaygee (Kaygee) New member Username: Kaygee Post Number: 652 Registered: 9-2008 Posted on Thursday, December 23, 2010 - 5:07 am:        Are the changes to the game over the last 100 (or less!) years relevant? Doriana (Doriana) New member Username: Doriana Post Number: 112 Registered: 12-2010 Posted on Saturday, December 25, 2010 - 11:33 am:        Is a specific rule of Life relevant? I've actually never played it so that I don't know the rules...

You can reactivate it by answering any outstanding questions. Visconti (Visconti) New member Username: Visconti Post Number: 451 Registered: 2-2005 Posted on Wednesday, May 11, 2011 - 10:39 pm:        Sorry for the limbo! Life intervened. *** SPOILER *** I was playing the Game of Life, and I remembered it being so much more fun when I was a kid. But now stuff like "Taxes!" and other real life costly things just made me depressed : ( Sorry for the limbo! Balin (Balin) New member Username: Balin Post Number: 13775 Registered: 4-2010 Posted on Wednesday, May 11, 2011 - 10:43 pm:        So life intervened on Life, huh? Clever - I'm not quite in the real world, so i think I can still enjoy the game. Haven't played it in a while, though. Peter365 (Peter365) Moderator Username: Peter365 Post Number: 36 Registered: 1-2011 Posted on Thursday, May 19, 2011 - 10:27 am:        Thanks for coming back to this Visconti. I also like the notion that life intervened in a puzzle about the game of life. And yes I agree the game was more enjoyable when you didn't have to worry about the issues dealt within it. I'll pop this puzzle into the recently solved for now.
