It's December: it's not cold, there is no snow, and nobody's solved or even come close (AFAIK) to solving the ScholarPuzzle. Talk about a depressing start to the winter!
I did post a few additional puzzles that I have created, for no other reason than to have an archive location for them out in the blogosphere where someone may chance upon them.
If you've chanced upon this blog, give the puzzles a try.
