Brain Age

elbeno, 15 June, 200629 July, 2007

The Brain Age tests are fun. I do well at the sudoku. However, the Stroop test (say the colour of the word, not the word) has problems with voice recognition on “blue”. It’s a bit frustrating! But every day my brain is getting better. Today I unlocked the Head Count game… count the number of people in a house, keeping track while people are going in and coming out.

I went to the mall today to return a belt (an Xmas present which turned out to be too small). I looked around for a medium, but they didn’t have the kind I wanted, so I just made a return. Very quick, very easy, I hand over belt + receipt,…

A Crossword for CppCon 2024

As well as being a C++ enthusiast, I’m a bit of a cruciverbalist. I do the Guardian cryptic every day (not in a particularly competitive time — I’d count sub-20 minutes as a good day), and sometimes others when I can. Like many Brits, I learned to do cryptic crosswords…

Grab it at ifcomp.org. And leave your BT client going while you play. By my count there are 44 games this year, and exactly half of them are Z-code games. The rest seem to be more split than usual between the other gaming systems, with TADS losing its 2nd place…

    Heh, I'd only played Sudoku once prior to playing Brain Age. Enjoyable stuff.
    I've just unlocked the head count game as well.
    Have to say that I don't have any probs at all with the voice recognition. The number recognition for the math puzzles is more annoying for me, esp. when I actually have the right answer and it penalises me when it mis-interprets my reponse. Not helpful when I'm not the most mathetically (sp?) minded person in the first place.
    Heigh ho. Perhaps I'll get on better with Big Brain Academy.

    Big Brain Academy is fun too. My brain weighs 1337 grams today! 🙂
