You turn around the corner. Your foe (Server, 58 Hp 3D1) awaits. You engage battle. You /. the server.
You gained an experience level!

The best way to play minesweeper is to set the grid size to its max and the number of mines to its min.

This way, you have a big space with like only ten mines. A lot of times, you can clear the board with one click.

YES! New Record! One Second! Woohoo!

Huge omissions

Actually, over all "su" is the BEST game ever.

Let's not forget the old classic:

cat /var/spool/mail/hotgirl | grep sex

Although I think that's probably closly followed by 2 others:

$IPTABLES -A FORWARD -i $EXTIF -o $INTIF -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT

tail - 200 access.log | grep "GET /scripts/root.exe?/c+dir HTTP/1.0"

I got a new game recently: The Oracle 9i install! I've been playing this for MONTHS now, and I'm still not sure how it's gonna turn out! I love the way you have to keep trying different things until you finally solve it! Please no spoilers!

I'm also a big fan of the "adding a non-standard serial device" game, but I'm not very good at it yet.
