Hi IanTimmy,

Great subject! I do like how you have treated it, buthink it could do with a bit more 'tongueincheek' treatment. I have always thought Christopher Monckton another example of the British eccentric genius smiley - winkeye but with a definite very clever twist.

I have tried to find out how much Crimonmogate finally sold for and who bought it - but I can't see anything on the 'net. Did you know he had it on Ebay for 1.2 million sterling? Also you don't mention that he apparently developed the game while on his "death bed"... or his public statement (at about the time he was trying to enter the US market with Eternity, I believe) on everyone needing to have an HIV test and be quarantined (for life) if they are positive.

Then again this is about the game not the man, so you may not want to go there.

smiley - ok

Author has not posted since May - propose move to fleamarket? This has the makings of a good entry in the right hands, I think.

Hi iantimmy123 - this Entry does have a good chance of making it, though it does need more work. Some advice:

smiley - friedegg You can't add pictures, so you should be more descriptive - how exactly was the puzzle meant to form a picture - did it make a square, a circle or a rectangle?

smiley - friedegg If you intend to get this through into the Edited Guide, you shouldn't link to Entries which aren't Edited. External links are acceptable, and the Thatcher link is ok as it is Edited.

smiley - friedegg You should include some more details if you can find them, especially if they make the Entry more readable.

Alex smiley - smiley
