Least favourite CCLP3 levels |

From what I've played, which is roughly 2/3rds of CCLP3. As of this time of posting, my least favourite CCLP3 levels are:
1. Caves - This level drove me insane as this one seemed luck based and took forever to finish, despite being short.
2. Coal Mine - Another level which drove me insane and took forever to finish, despite being somewhat easy.
3. You Can't Teach An Old Frog New Tricks - Not fun to play or finish anymore. However, it does have the frog cam.
4. Toggle Bust - Really boring. Ran out of time a few times and got me raging.
5. Lot In Life - Luck based. Similar to Caves, but not as frustrating.
Be aware the list will change in the future, so some of these might drop out of the list.

You have the king who slays his pet bird, the one who was trying to warn him not to drink from the poisoned spring.
One emperor ignores his favourite songbird in favour of a mechanical replica; it's only when he's on his deathbed that he makes amends.
No one buys anything from the little match girl, and consequentially, she freezes to death.
The velveteen rabbit gets thrown out with the trash, to be burned.
The tin soldier is thrown into a fire, and as he melts, he watches his woman catch on fire.
Is it any wonder why people are so messed up?!?!?!

What is spam? |

Ok, I'm not trying to spam by asking this, and I guess the best proof is that I started this thread rather than continuing the discussion on the thread on which it originated...
Anyway, different communities seem to have different definitions of this, so what's the CC community think? What qualifies as "spam"? Particularly in the context of an off-topic forum...

The World Chess Championship is going to start in a month or so. Frankly, I'm not all that excited. I've never been a fan of Anand or Gelfand to begin with, but their recent tourney results have been so lacklustre that I can't even pretend to be interested in the upcoming battle.
Far more interesting from my POV is the Kramnik-Aronian match that's going to start tomorrow. I expect it to be a fantastic series of games; both players have scored incredible victories in the past six months (between Tata Steel and the Tal Memorial).
Oh, and I suck as a player. The only time I ever seem to win is when my opponent drops a piece. I can usually capitalize on that...otherwise, nah. I'm bad at making long-range plans (not just in chess, but in general). That said, I'm currently clinging to a 1666.5 rating on Chesstempo.com (I'm gambling that most people here are sufficiently unfamiliar with the ELO system to fail to realize just how unimpressive this rating is). It's pretty much my biggest accomplishment in the past nine months.
Finally, here's a quote from Spassky, one of my favourite players (NOTE: may prove inappropriate for younger readers):

Book 1: The Story of The Legendary Cat - "Fuji the Legend"
:: Known Pictures ::
PROLOGUE: Wrongfully Accused
Fuji has been wrongfully accused of murdering a rabbit! He was taken to the backyard on Wednesday, April 18, 2012, to trial and was proven guilty. He was sentenced to 20 years in yard jail....
-----------------
-CHAPTER 1-
Fuji is in the jail, walking around, figuring out a way to get across the fence somehow, into freedom of cat life. He took a while to figure it out. He stared up at the sky, wondering what to do and how to do it. He looked around him. There were no guards in sight at all - nowhere to be found! "This jail is the worst in the county" he thought to himself. He looked up at the fence. It was only about 5 or 6 Fujis tall, which wasn't high at all. He sat down and thought about the time when he jumped ridiculously high into a tree to catch a cardinal, and fell back down into a bush... good times.
Fuji paced back and forth within the jail, coming up with his plan that he would execute on the 20th of April 2012, around 6:00 PM. He noticed a few guards - a guy riding his bike, just getting home, appearing out of nowhere to ride up into the driveway. He acted casual and made a face as if he hated living and staying in jail. He watched as the guard walked into the tower, which was a triangle-like building with a roof shaped like an upside down V or an A without a dash through it. Once all the guards were gone, and no dogs in sight, he.. simply leaped up, onto the fence, and then looked around. Still safe. He walked on top of the fence as if he were 10 feet off the ground - a scary height - and saw a blue car. He prayed to the god of amazing fates, and...
jumped onto the car successfully.
"Whew!" he thought to himself. "I didn't know I would make it!!!"
...and then comes... the DOG...
Chapter 2 coming soon!
