Failing that, try Ctrl-C? I think one of those exits the game instantly, without prompting. It shouldn't matter either way though, if you actually intend to quit. I think DOTT prompts on both, so either should be safe....  [Read More]

I'm not sure what's wrong with that page. Some of the links work, some don't. Try finding one that does, and change the number of the zip file at the end so it points to the one you want. I think it's 19. Hope that makes sense....  [Read More]

I think the answer to this question depends on two things: How foolish the fool is. How foolish the fool who follows him is. With this information, the problem can be reduced to a greater-than / less-than problem, which is solvable in polynomial tim...  [Read More]
