Well, I told her the rules, and that if she doesn't get it, she can just ask...

Or...I have an idea. Maybe we can just make jU a special 'I'm winked' image and she can pretend she's playing, while we play our own game.

Well since I'm the last one left (not including Zach), I am justlookingforthemoment, one of the - as you can see - mods. Unlike ganesh, and like mathsy, I can offer you no flashy welcome banner... but welcome!

Nice! I'm sure it will help people understand symmetry more.

Here's a picture. It was a bit hard to keep the mouse straight - especially since I was using a touchpad!

Also, maybe a new feature could be an 'undo' button, although it is not necessary, and has nothing to do with maths.

I'm not sure if it's just me, but I don't understand. What pie options are available?

Read from the top of this page...it might give you an idea!

#1086 Re: Dark Discussions at Cafe Infinity » Wink Murder 5 » 2005-10-22 22:56:32

But that makes up for the two times you did last game.

Nice pic, Rod. I presume that's wink sherlock?

And well done mathsy!! Too good.

So far this is the play:

Wink Murder 1
Murderer: justlookingforthemoment
Winner: Zach (knew murderer from the start)

Wink Murder 2
Murderer: Rora
Winner: mathsyperson (guessed Rora straight off)

Murderer: MathsIsFun
Winner: MathsIsFun (killed everyone)

Murderer: justlookingforthemoment
Winner: insomnia

Wink Murder 3
Murderer: Zach
Winner: Zach (ganesh was left but didn't guess)

Wink Murder 4
Murderer: mathsyperson
Winner: mathsyperson

Wink Murder 5
Murderer: MathsIsFun
Winner: mathsyperson

That must mean
Mathsyperson: 3
Zach: 2
MathsIsFun: 1
insomnia: 1

Is the wiki meant to be about teaching concepts of maths...because I was wondering if all of your explanatory pages should go/be linked to in the wiki? Eg. if in the wiki we created a page called 'congruent', and had links to those pages you have created. Or is the wiki for something else?

Did amanda just die? Or was it my imagination?

Well, anyway, I may as well guess the murderer now, because I'm sure I'm going to be killed soon. But I don't know who.

I'll start with amanda. It might be her, because she is new and she also posted what might be a 'fake' death thing. On the other hand, maybe not. Insomnia picked and I don't think he would have picked himself. I don't think I am the murderer, but that's just my opinion. jU is unlikely. Zach and insomnia know each other in real life, so there is a possibility insomnia picked Zach. MathsIsFun also is a candidate. I also think it could be mathsy - he was murderer last time, so insomnia might have picked him to throw us off the track.

So I guess...

A strong wind blows in through my window. Everything swirls around and the room becomes dark. There is somebody else in the room. I can feel their presence.

Okay, I better guess quickly then. Um...

A hooded figure glides across the room and grabs a paperweight.

Arggh! I guess...

THUD! The paperweight connects with my head and I fall to the ground. My head is pounding. Noooo! Just take a guess. I try to get the words out of my mouth, but no one can hear as I give a final whisper. I close my eyes and die. All that guess work for nothing. The murderer slides away, into the shadows, once again.

Insomnia...? You have a jelly baby fan friend.

Never heard of it. What about

A rolling stone gathers no moss.

or

Many hands make light work.

or even

Every cloud has a silver lining.

#1092 Re: Maths Is Fun - Suggestions and Comments » Geometric Translation » 2005-10-19 19:24:34

You could also say that it has to do with symmetry, if you wanted. I like it though!

#1093 Re: Guestbook » Myths » 2005-10-18 22:53:19

See - even Tiger knows it! (Tiger, do you actually know the saying?)

#1094 Re: Puzzles and Games » Make 28 » 2005-10-18 21:43:10

But now that you're a mod you can secretely edit them... in the forums you moderate. Which isn't this one. So I'll let you off. big_smile

#1096 Re: Puzzles and Games » Make 28 » 2005-10-18 20:15:30

Look, insomnia, you're not the best at re-reading your posts just face.

#1098 Re: Dark Discussions at Cafe Infinity » Wink Murder 5 » 2005-10-17 14:36:29

But...that's what I said. I still don't get this: 'Or am I not the murderer?'

#1100 Re: Jokes » Limericks » 2005-10-17 14:25:33

You still haven't explained what that means.
