Put up a sequence of numbers, letters, words...whatever. Responders must fill in the next item in the sequence WITH AN EXPLANATION. For example, if I post:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, __

You could post "6" and say the rule is +1.

However, you could also post "126" and say the rule is:

(n-1)(n-2)(n-3)(n-4)(n-5) + n

[it works -- try it]

Rules: One person posts a sentence with one word missing. Then others post their choice for the missing word.

Intention: To get laughs from readers.

Anyone who has any in their levelsets, post them here.

Give me any Roman Numeral less than 5,000 and I will solve it without any help.

For those who have little to no experience with Roman Numerals:

I - 1

V - 5

X - 10

L - 50

C - 100

D - 500

M - 1000

Inspired by Ben's "Rebound" from BHLS2.dat, this is in my upcoming set ZaneK2.dat.

And I know Rock has a similar level title

Hate it, hate it, hate it. I absolutely hate it. It makes "On The Rocks" and "Pain" seem almost palatable. Who decided that replacing text with poorly designed, ambiguous symbols was the best way to go? Do the people who designed this have designs for employment at Microsoft? Is Google trying to become even less user-friendly than MS Word? What is this garbage? And why did they force everyone to change? Would it have been that much of a burden to maintain the original "skin"? What was the purpose of this? Serious grumble.

I just finished writing an easy to follow guide on how to setup up (wihtout installing any program on your PC) a full Windows 3.1 environment inside the portable version of the program DOSBox. This will let you run MSCC (and other BOWEP/WEP games) inside the old, but still great, Windows 3.1 system.

This is not only an interesting experiment for nostalgics since the use of DOSBox emulating Windows 3.1 is also one of the best ways to run 16 bit games such as MSCC in 64 bit operative systems (I've tested it solving all the CC1 levels from 1 to 10 and the games seems to run perfectly with no lag).

More details are available inside the guide, which can be found here: http://chiphome5.webs.com/MSCC_DosBox_HowTo.pdf

Note: always verify that the commands you write into DOSBox (you'll find them in the guide) are correct, since commands like 'mount c c:' (never execute this command) can cause several damages to your PC if used without knowing what they do!
