Man, I hate these things. I'm a sucker for deceptively simple looking games that prove complex and disturbingly interesting. This one seems really simple. Click on the block in the middle and drag it around to avoid the other blocks flying around. But then you start seeing developing patterns and an odd symmetry and the next thing you know 10 minutes have gone by.

Bah! I'm through with these things!

Well, maybe just one more time...

(Many curses upon Dopple-G's head for inflicting this on me)

The 'what' I refer to is of course "XSET". I want to know what it means, and so does Rob. He's offering valuable prizes including XSET points(tm) and an all expense paid trip to your own kitchen to the three people with the best explanations for just what the heck XSET is supposed to mean.

I've put in a couple but my brain hurts now and I can't come up with any more. My first inclination was (of course) to let it go at this point and wait to collect my valuable prizes. But, seeing as I'm trying to put up this facade of me as a kind and caring fellow I figured it would go a bit better for that image if I helped out a bit and clued y'all into the contest.

You can submit as many times as you want, your suggestions don't have to be that close to XSET and you have until Feb 22 to enter. Go forth and name that site.

The 9th Bestofme Symphony is up at Unbillable Hours and ready for your weekly perusal. A cuppa, a Symphony, and thou. What more could a blogger ask for?

Hosting: Would you like to host the Symphony? Send me a note.

Submit to the Symphony: Want to be a part of next week's edition? Check out this post for submission help. Entries should always be sent to bestofme@jpeacock.net regardless of who the Symphony host is.

Spread the word: Webloggers, please give TBP some props for a fine Symphony. Maybe a bit of link love would best show our appreciation? (Hint, hint, hint)

Email Reminders: If you'd like to be sent a reminder about the Symphony, drop me a line at this address. It's not a mailing list, just me sending out friendly little reminders. There'll be one on Thursday or Friday to remind you to submit for the next Symphony and one on Monday with the location of the newly posted Symphony.
