I had to use a URL shortener because each invite link exceeded GameFAQ's character limit

ESPN Men's Bracket Challenge:

The first three are straightforward, and feel free to join both men's groups if you want. As the last one alludes to, you are supposed to flip a coin (physically or virtually) for each matchup.

I don't know if the invite links sidestep the group password requirements, but if not, I would assume it is the same across the board.

I just now decided to look at the point allocations closely since I don't remember them from year to year, and I think that I'm going to do more poorly than I originally thought. I got 3-4 of the three point categories wrong

I blasted through a ton of Doors last night. I'm now on the third chapter. Some of my least favorite puzzles in video games were of the sliding block variety, so I just skipped the two or three or so that I came across lol.

To me, the battles and music were the only interesting things about it. There was little engagement outside of battles, and the writing definitely seemed like it was from an musician-turned-game developer in their early 20s.

I've been whittling away at Doors. And by whittling, I mean really whittling. I think I've had three sessions, and I've beaten cleared 3-5 puzzles each time. They've been getting good mileage/variety out of the basic framework of the two-sided puzzles.

I've also been working on Pizza Tower. I've been having to fight my urges to run all the time since it keeps getting me into trouble. I had a level that I cleared with less than 20 seconds left (and I'm aware that doesn't trigger until you reach the Moai statues, or whatever they are), so I guess that reaching that point sends me into a little panic. There's also a lot of breakable stuff, secret or intentional obstacle, that simply running will clear, so I do feel a little enabled with my reckless approach.
