Was it because of the lameness and thus implied boredom level rather than it being difficult in any way? 
I thought it would be a simple novelty item as an introductory level for a novice or young child or for anyone feeling very silly. However, it was beginning to look as though either no-one (or no-one suitable) was subscribed to the page or they just weren't in the mood. I was more interested in the mathematical pattern side of things. But having analysed the form I did then have the option of posting one ... or more than one ...

It was the implied boredom level, I think. Coupled with the feeling that there's a few minutes of my life that I'm not going to get back.
I even converted the smilies to numbers, wrote it all out in a grid, identified all the possible entries in each posistion, then filled it in, converted the numbers back to smilies, and typed the solution in here.
I do make life too complicated for myself, I fear.

We all know those cute little computer symbols called "emoticons," where: 
means a smile and 
is a frown.
In former times these were represented by and respectively (and a British invention to boot) - until Mr Gates came along and did it automatically.
Well, how about some "assicons"? Here goes:
(_!_) a regular *****
(__!__) a fat ****
(!) a tight ****
(_*_) a sore ****
{_!_} a swishy ****
(_o_) an **** hole
(_x_) kiss my ****
(_zzz_) a tired ****
(_E=mc2_) a smart ****
(_$_) Money coming out of his *****
(_?_) Dumb *****
..oo*"""**oo.oo*""*oo.
oo*" "*o.o*" "*o.
o o *o

So - you have just been e-mooned!
