Re: What is your favourite kind of puzzle?
I love boggle because it's a classic, and I enjoy how challenging it is, even after all these years. I also am fond of its variations and spin-offs like wordle. With each move you can just feel a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment as yo try to find the perfect set of letters. No matter how lon...

Re: Lesson 3 - Discover Some More Words
So the other day I was walking with Seraʃtes when we had to go up this very steep hill. I started complaining about it in english, more so to myself than to her. She asked what I was muttering about and I told her that I didn't like this hill. Since I didn't exactly know the word for it, I explained...

Re: Mister Monday - Discuss Chapters 25-29
Discussion Would you have chosen to heal Mister Monday as Arthur did? If I had remembered what Dusk had said, maybe I would. But since I forgot about it and probably would too if it were me in that situation, I would unfortunately not heal Mister Monday. Why do you think Arthur chose to let the for...

Re: Mister Monday - Discuss Chapters 19-24
Discussion Do you think the landings on the Improbable Stair occur at random? Why or why not? I don't think they occur at random, no. They seemed to be appearing in chronological order to the periods of time they took place in. Which would you personally find more intimidating, facing Noon and his ...

Re: Mister Monday - Discuss Chapters 13-18
Discussion Who do you think Arthur should trust? I think Arthur should trust Suzy and the Will. Monday’s Dusk tells Arthur that things didn’t used to be like this. What do you think has happened in the lower house to make everything go so wrong? Maybe Mister Monday has been replaced by a new Mister...

Re: Mister Monday - Discuss Chapters 7-12
Discussion If you were in Arthur’s position, would you have decided to enter the house? My curiosity would take the best of me and I would enter the house. Also it would've probably been safer inside than outside with all of this going on. Would you like the chance to look around the city Arthur fo...

Re: Mister Monday - Discuss the Prologue-Chapter 6
I must say, the story confused me quite a bit. I have no idea why. Nonetheless, it is fun and I do wanna keep on reading. Now for the questions: Why do you think someone is so intent on keeping the will locked up? I think they have their own plan on causing trouble or grasping for power and the Will...
