Blue, in answer to who was the previous title holder: "A man has broken his own world record by clipping 153 clothes pegs to his face."

So he won 'world's dopiest man,' and ensured returning champion.

Hi Blue,

I keep The Elements of Style on my desk for daily leafing. It is clear you have been reading it for some time, as well. It put a smile on my face to know another Webmaster has been applying it's use to the most modern medium.

With that, and today's OotB, in mind; I wanted to point out that you shouldn't feel blocked from talking about games. There is a difference is stating appreciation for Game A, than sharing a pleasant experience had in Game B. The former falls under opinion and should be discarded as you have been. However, the latter can be accomplished without even stating the game's title (though the circumstances required for the story may give it away). Properly done, you could share a humorous story, frame-worked the same as a HtWD Tale, without treading opinion.

The OotB posts are fine, though this may be a way to satisfy more readers as well as acknowledge we are all gamers. We like to play and talk about games.

This is fixed already... If you do not want the logo pop-up to interrupt the page loading, simply don't click on it until the page is done.

I don't know... That sounds a lot like self control.

Walter is happy: he got to "smash things" again for this week's logo. Oh, and the alt text is excellent.

This fella bears a striking resemblance to Jaba The Hut.

#3, Very true.

My comment was not directed as a declaritory statement to all readers. I was just noting that for my personal enjoyment of reading, I do appreciate it.

Being a webmaster also, I know that it is Blue's Job to cater to the majority; however, it is still nice to hear a compliment from an individual every now and then, that's all I was doing.

#4, haha

The effort to maintain updates at 9:00AM EST are appreciated. I know I can get the morning news before I slink out for my day's classes.

"Happy Birthday Blue! I turned 35 this year, and it has been interesting watching the change in the junk mail. I guess that is what happens when you cross demographics (From 18-34 to 35-50). So, I feel old too."

Wow, fancy spammers you have working on you. I'm 20 and (lets look at today's) Viagra, A Spanish Head Scrub (to prevent baldness, of course), etc. Small pickings this morning, that's good. I guess it's better to have the scrub before going bald, but you get the idea..

Agreed! The scores didn't keep up during the looting, not that it matters. Had me laughing, just what I needed.

Cool, Daddy-o.

Sheesh, that was funny!

To add my ideas to the collective pot:

- Nod to your enemy.
