That's some interesting info. Thanks for posting it. By the way, I have just tried blank block, and am addicted. It's played like the game "Hi Q", only it's better. The only suggestion I have so far would be to have the game say "blank" if a row or column is cleared. This would save time and be easier to keep track of. rather than it say that each space is blank, blank, blank, and so on. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dark" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, December 04, 2006 8:32 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] blank block from lite tech interactive
