LinkedOut games dropping a public leaderboard [for connections] is going to shift my playing style from wake up [first thing in the morning, still half asleep] to blitz [wait until later, play fully awake]. not sure if this is an improvement!

PS: play #FiddleBrix for true 🔡 joy!!

I asked, last year, if #FiddleBrix has a birthday, and based on your response, I thought yesterday was a de facto one, which is why I wished it one this year and last year.

I’m not sure if I’ll play #FiddleBrix again because my partner and I became parents two weeks ago. Do you have any recommendations/resources for math development/learning?

the game FiddleBrix, which I cocreated w others, aims to minimize this sort of repetition among solutions. (It also uses only commonish words but ensures there are no solutions missed using obscure words.) Tutorial is rough but the Levels and Daily Brix are fun, I'd (biasedly) say. App free ad free!

periodic reminder that i cocreated an original word game w some v smart people!:
FIDDLEBRIX 🔡🧩

4×4 boards get harder Mon to Sat; 5×5 every Sun

tutorial suboptimal: play some levels to get the hang of it 🤙🏻
