AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a game where participants create cryptic clues that hint at the usernames of members from the Physics Forums. Players attempt to guess the usernames based on the clues provided, often engaging in reasoning and collaborative problem-solving. Examples of clues include "fancy Russian included," which led to the answer "cyrus," and "disenfranchize, without Che inside," which resulted in "franznietzsche." The game encourages creativity and linguistic play, with participants sharing their thought processes and explanations for their guesses. As the game progresses, several clues remain unsolved, prompting players to offer hints or additional clues. The atmosphere is light-hearted, with humor and camaraderie evident among participants as they navigate the challenges of the cryptic clues.

12. It flows through an Ouroboros -- cyclovenom - (Ouroboros is a snake swallowing its own tail) - solved by arunbg

That was a really clever clue for my nickname. I'll keep it in mind :biggrin:

I know George goes for walks at insanely (and I kid you not) cold temperatures.

Well, for North Americans, I am a bit of an anomaly - I have never had a license to drive a car. My wife has a license, and we have a car, but I walk to and and from work (25 minutes one way at a brisk pace).

I'm moving to a place where the summers are cooler and the winters are warmer but with more snow. I hope to find a place to live that is between 2 and 3 kilometres from work - much more than 3 kilometres and I'll take public transit.

Back to sorting and packing; the movers come on Wednesday.

Thanks to all for the kind words. Naturally, I wouldn't have done it if I wasn't having a cracking good time myself. Good fun - I'm glad you enjoyed it!

PS : I haven't planned on making another one anytime soon. Keeping with tradition, I'll probably put it off till next summer.
