#2 took the groan right out of my mouth.
#16: Teresa K (fasstar) on Feb 3, 2011
Big smiles from me. I enjoyed this so much.
#17: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Feb 3, 2011
I'm so glad everyone "enjoyed" the pun. Thanks, as always, for the comments. That's what keeps me making puzzles.
#18: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Feb 3, 2011
dang Brain...i thought it was your overwhelming created spirit
#19: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Feb 3, 2011
I think much of the fun of this site is the little snippits of conversations that seems to run through the different puzzles. It is funny that of the 200 or so people that solve most of the smaller puzzles and are logged on every day, so few of them join in the conversations. I asked people to respond to one of my puzzles some months back to see who was here. I think the count was in the high 60s last time I checked. Tom you are right. I enjoy the creativity too but the comments make it a community.
#20: Susan Duncan (medic25733) on Feb 5, 2011
I totally agree with Brian - I love reading the comments and try to add mine on every puzzle I solve
#21: Sarah Andrews (sarah) on Feb 6, 2011 [SPOILER]
Great puzzle. I wish more people would comment. RE planets, I miss Pluto.
#22: Jota (jota) on Feb 6, 2011
LOL Sarah!
#23: Joel Lynn (furface1) on Feb 6, 2011
I always enter a rating, but am inspired to enter a comment less than half the time.
#24: Susan Duncan (medic25733) on Feb 7, 2011
I am the opposite - I almost always comment but hardly ever enter a rating.
#25: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Feb 7, 2011
I'll add a rating if I think the puzzle is improperly rated.
#26: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on May 26, 2011
i do the same as kristen, if i think the rating is out of whack i pitch my opinion into the mix. i also do the same as joel and comment less than half the time. i also miss pluto like sarah and groaned at this puzzle like everybody else.

community.

Yesterday I looked at the Users tab, and sorted by last login. I was astounded at the sheer numbers of people who come in to solve puzzles and never make any of their own. And that's just the ones who created accounts!
#28: Rebecca (rp) on Mar 12, 2018
I must confess that I am a sinner here - I do not have the creativity to make intreresting puzzles of my own, but greatly enjoy solving those that others have made ... and rarely have comments to make that others have not already made :(
#29: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Mar 12, 2018
No worries! It's nice to see a new "face", so to speak. :)
#30: Steve (stevieb) on Aug 31, 2019
Hilarious!
#31: Andrew Schultz (blurglecruncheon) on Jan 23, 2022 [SPOILER]
I was suspecting a pun, and I considered a bunch of planet names, but not "planet." Oops!

Thanks for the laughs and fun--you mentioned "this is what keeps me doing things" and 10+ years on and you are still providing them.
#32: Bill Eisenmann (Bullet) on Jan 23, 2022
Never, ever stop creating, Brian!
#33: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Jan 23, 2022
I take a break from time to time but always come back.
#34: Judy LeTourneau (Izzy) on Jan 23, 2022
Hah!

#35: Lizzy B (lizzyb) on Feb 10, 2022
teehee - you got one or two more stars for the pun!

my two cents: I only rate and/or comment when I'm inspired to do so, usually because something strikes me as really great. In this case I just had to give my thumbs up!
#36: Meg Smith (mamadragonfreak) on Feb 10, 2022
groan
#37: Koreen (mom24plus) on Feb 11, 2022
Ok, sorry, Brian, but I'm glad this one only took a minute, or two. You got an eye roll from me, no groan, no smile, no chuckle. HOWEVER, the comments were great! Hee hee hee
#38: Kerri Kemp (kerri_kemp) on Feb 12, 2022
Thanks Brian for the fun little puzzle.

I enjoy these just as much (and sometimes more) than the bigger ones that stretch my brain.
And LOVED the pun. Good one. LOL.
