Four times I was third or better yet I was still in the back of the pack. I do enjoy these types of games and wish we had more to go with our weekly TD games. I'd also like another Chronology or Who's Special game, if anyone is up for running one.

Thanks for the fun game, Vanya! The photos added a nice touch.
EDIT: Vanya's blue gem is so nice, I've decided to use it as my avatar. (I didn't have one before.) Thanks, Vanya! I don't know if it's a topaz, but blue topaz is my birthstone.
