(...) Hmm. I just ran out back and tried it, accomplishing "starting" in about 2 seconds. I didn't think it was hard (and yes, the swing was still, and yes, I didn't touch anything). I agree it's a very good game, however. And for my next trick, (...) (17 years ago, 23-Aug-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Never read the others. "Enders Game" was my favorite, even if it had had nothing but Battle School and the zero-G "capture the flag" scenes. Not only is it an example of true 3-D thinking on a book (rare enough... ever wonder why the Kligons (...) (17 years ago, 17-Aug-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

I found that the Peter Wiggin/Bean books were more to do with politics and war (much like Bourne movies) and the Ender series to be more sci-fi--especially (...)

(...) I haven't added a name yet, it's hard to pick one. Just thought of "The Swing's The Thing" this evening; Google pulled up a lot of golf references, so it must be kid-safe, right? Cheers, Wayne. (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) I like that swung the highest option for the win condition. That can be judged by the angle of the rope, removing any fiddlely bits of the robot from making it look like it's swinging higher then it is. Derek (17 years ago, 15-Aug-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
