Welcome from me too.
I've spent all day wondering about the 100ish. Is that 99 or 101? As a fellow puzzler the answer is important.

Welcome Imran100ish. Sounds somewhat like a cricketing reference to me... Imran surely goes with a few centuries? Well, you'll soon find that we make lots of interesting and unlikely connections here!

Hi there Imran100ish and welcome. My name too, has very mysterious and complex overtones...

Welcome to the site kreepy

Big welcome Kreepy. Have fun, and I hope you are a bit warmer than we are out here on the east coast.
Cheers. BB.

NOt for runes I have forgotten all I learnt there, but help with puzzlebrains is different (I think!)

I kept all my workings because F and K were following me. K never quite got to the end, so I still have it all and I tried to keep notes of how the trails worked.

Thanks for the great welcome everyone. As giraffe mentioned, I was wandering the Runes forums looking for help and got me to check out puzzlebrains. Looks like a great site and I can't wait to dive into it (thanks again giraffe for telling me about it).
I also told my friend about this site (iggulder on the Runes site). Hopefully he will join too, but his wife may be mad at me for telling him about it. She said I wasn't allowed in their house after the torture I put them through when I gave them the Runes puzzle as a Christmas gift a couple of years ago (yes, we're both still working on it). LOL, she was just kidding of course.

Hello there Kiko13 (and Kreepy before you) - nice to see some new faces around the place.

I didn't get involved with Runes, but if you had it and made progress with it then you've probably got the right sort of mind for this place.
I hope you enjoy the puzzles and get to know the crowd here - don't be put off by everyone seemeing to 'know' each other and just jump in with both feet. [It sounds like you 'know' our local Giraffe already - even if it's only the online version).
