(...) What in the love of god is this fascination with Steve's balls?! Other than the obvious? They're hard to grab. Even Steve used these 4x4 blocks for his own 3T game.

Hello to the peoples. Snap Snap Snap. This is the new shirt design for 2006: (URL) majority of them will be on dark solid grey, not on orange. Unusual colours can be ordered though.

I find it hard to get excited about games like tug of war. But then I've never done well with free roaming robots. Given the number of games we played on the Tug of War afternoon I don't think we had a problem with the games needing to run smoother. (...) (18 years ago, 9-Aug-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Do we make the games to hard? If we had a simpler "less" complex game would the games run smother? I dont mean a "simple" game. As an example, I mean, something like tug of war, BUT not with the free rope part. Chris (18 years ago, 9-Aug-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Am I missing something here? There is a lot of talk about ball (or block or shape) handling, but in TTT you just play with your own pieces and never have to "pick-up" anything. I would think a magazine solution would be simpler all around, unless (...) (18 years ago, 7-Aug-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
