Boggle is the classic 3 minute word game. Mix up the board, and then try to make as many words as you can before the timer runs out! Play on your own or against your friends. This game allows 4x4 or 5x5 board play, for even longer words, and more of them!
Boggle is an idea whose time has come — much like a diaper that’s achieved critical mass — but unfortunately for the plucky Edinburghian student who rejoices in the mysteriously maladroit moniker of Pyramid Productions, this particular idea’s time came about 25 years ago when Parker Brothers trademarked the classic three-minute word game called, hmmm, let’s see, what was it?
Oh yes: Boggle.
Iain Bethune, we hate to squash your fuzzy little dream of selling enough copies of this undownloadable app to escape your thankless part-time job as a caber whittler, but we fear the big bad barristers of Boggle are already on the job. And at the shareware sum of $8 (or four sheep stomachs a-bursting with premium haggis), we would much rather carve our own crudely lettered dice from Scottish Terrier scapulae and spend the rest on screw-top wine.
Pyramid Productions, you have earned our sympathy and a gleefully egregious 11.0. Don’t spend it all in one place.
Download Boggle, if you can.

Posted by: no body on March 23, 2004 01:10 AMI'm not ready to commit.
These damned long-distance relationships never work out.
Besides, I secretly love Naomi, but am having a longstanding affair with Long Dong, while carrying on behind both their backs with Nick, and Badger won't stop badgering me ...
Phew! It's exhausting!
Thank God for my secret wombat lover, Wallamina.
What's that Belvedere? Well why didn't you stop me? I had no idea that damned thing was turned on ...
Posted by: aussie boy on March 23, 2004 01:54 AMPardon me for making an on-topic comment.
"Pyramid Productions" isn't original, either. See http://www.madeincanada.ca
Mr Elsberry! Damn you, sir, for a scoundrel!
How dare you add facts to this forum? Reprehensible!
Belvedere, my duelling pistols and the 30+ sunscreen, old biscuit! We shall fight it out at midday (when the sun is exceeding harsh)!
Posted by: aussie boy on March 23, 2004 05:25 AMElsberry's post could have been much worse.
Based on reading this forum, the ultimate sin here is to be funny.
Overkill - enough is enough! There's nothing left of me to devour. You've had your fill, I'm all I have left. What can stop your hunger for power? Cuz you took advantage of things that I said, now the feeling is dead - and that's the ultimate sin.

Here's a little blast from the past, it seems the GMC has raised it ugly little head over in China. And not just any member of the GMC, but His Royal Highness himself. Not only that, but he has a magical staff, longdongsilver, you're in trouble!
Monkey King Steps Up to Bat for Chinese League
Mar 23, 9:45 AM (ET)
BEIJING (Reuters) - China's mythical Monkey King will swing his magical staff for baseball next month in a bid to help a fledgling league take root in a country besotted with soccer and basketball.
Sun Wukong, the legendary simian beloved for his mischievous ways, magical staff and supernatural powers, has been adopted as the China Baseball League's mascot, the organizing committee said on Tuesday.
One of the league's goals is to groom enough domestic talent to give China's national team a shot at qualifying for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.
Although the sport is popular in Taiwan and Japan, baseball is virtually unknown among China's 1.3 billion people.

I think it is time I broke out my home made Taser since some of you idiots can't control your urges. The first one of you that comes near me will get their wish to convulse like you were having an orgasm of life time complete with foaming of the mouth. Then I'll shove all that cheese from the refrigerator in your gullet and you will then die a slow death from constipation as your guts freeze up because of that cheese log you can't move. If you beg for mercy, I'll rip you a new asshole with my wood chipper so that you can relieve yourself.

Posted by: michael eisner on March 23, 2004 09:53 AMI was travelling. Vacationing. Cairo, Giza, Sakkara, Memphis.
At the gates of Graceland, I was stunned by a brilliant light in my eyes. "Get out of the street, you moron!" the man yelled as he drove around me.
Then I saw him, the King. He was at the snack bar, with his family. "I'm getting everyone a regular hot dog," his father said. "Why can't we all get a Long?" asked Rodney.
I strolled down to Beale Street. There was an impressive display of pellet guns. A band was playing, "It'll Put Your Eye Out." It was led by the King of BBs.
Suddenly, a shot rang out. I felt a sharp pain and blacked out. I awoke, face down in the gutter. My left eye was looking back at me. I picked it up and returned it to my head. Then I spied a flyer for a new stage show called "I Told You So." In small print at the bottom it read, "A P. Y. Ramid Production." I boggled. It was a small boggle, rating a 1.00 on the boggle scale.
As I stepped into the desert night, I was suddenly lifted into the air. I found myself sucked into the belly of an alien space ship! I boggled again. Slightly larger this time - a Boggle 1.01. The six-eyed being handed me a card. "P. Y. Ramid Productions, Inc. Serving humanity's needs for pointless, economically unfeasible megamonuments for 10 millenia," it read.
"You built the pyramids?" I asked pointedly.
"Nah, the Egyptians built them. We just handled the publicity tour," he replied circuitously.
"We're over your home," he said. "Step into the transporter. Ouch! I've got a hangnail. Can you help out?"
I checked my pockets, but came up empty.
"Sorry, I can't download you, since file not found," he said.
Suddenly, the floor opened beneath me. I found myself falling through the atmosphere. The friction was so high I actually caught fire. When I finally hit the ground, only my hands were left. That's how I became a "Hunka, hunka Burning Glove."
Posted by: Uncertain Future on March 23, 2004 01:12 PMUncertain Future, you have lived up to your name again.
You certainly have no future in writing US sitcoms.
You're too funny ...
Did you read that, shawk? He's FUNNY! HA! HA HA HA!
We all float down here. We all float down here! Fwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Fwahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa!
Posted by: aussie boy on March 23, 2004 03:44 PMThat was... impressive.
Posted by: longdongsilver on March 23, 2004 03:47 PMFor those who were disappointed by the non-loading file:
http://www.gtoal.com/wordgames/boggle.html
I prefer to play in Swedish, myself. A tad more challenging.
Posted by: Leibnitz, N. on March 23, 2004 04:13 PMTry it in Cyrillic, Liebnitz.
Last night I accidentally sold 200 kilograms of Semtex to the Russian mafia while trying to spell the Russian word for earwax.
Luckily the local police in Cyprus were able to confiscate the shipment, and as long as I can come up with $2 million dollars by next Friday night that lovely chap Vasilly says I can have my children back in one piece.
Sadly, my own local law-enforcement officials confiscated my Cyrillic Boggle as a result of this unfortunate incident.
But I didn't tell them I had the special Hamas Jihad edition tucked away in the back of the cupboard. Anyone want to play?
Posted by: aussie boy on March 23, 2004 05:16 PMThat's another good way to become a "hunka, hunka burning gloves" - and wheelchairs, and shoes, for that matter.
Posted by: Uncertain Future on March 23, 2004 05:19 PMI was wondering what happened to my Semtex.
Have you tried any currency negotiation? There's a very happy exchange rate right now between the Andorran Franc and the Cypriot Pound.
It's pretty straight-forward:
trade Australian dollars for Chinese yuan;
buy gold in Hong Kong;
sell gold in Singapore;
exchange Singapore dollars for Indonesian rupiah;
use rupiah to buy rubles in Moscow;
sell rubles in India for rupees;
buy Indian clandestine chipset that you are not allowed to have knowledge of;
sell chipset in Germany for euros;
buy Andorran francs with euros;
Convert to Cyprus pounds;
ransom children!
Simple, and you'll turn a profit of about 34 million Australian dollars.
I'm just glad I could help, Mr. Boy.

Posted by: shawk on March 23, 2004 09:01 PMHoly crap, Long Dong said something other than... that thing he always says. I can't bear to repeat it. These comments things have seen that phrase too many times already.
Posted by: The Valrus on March 23, 2004 09:30 PMWell, I don't see anybody else in here glorifying in the size of my member, and someone's gotta do the job. If I don't say it, who will?
If you would like to take over my job for me Mr. Valrus, then I would be glad to contribute something else to this forum! Ha! Who am I kidding? I have nothing to contribute except for my massive dong.
I mean, size is everything. So once again I shall let it be known that I have a big weiner. And if you'd like to meet it WtF (weiner to face) next Wednesday is open, and I might be able to squeeze you in Thursday afternoon.
Posted by: longdongsilver on March 23, 2004 10:26 PM1) The new design of PvT is superb. From the pumpkin color to the gigantic fancy chicken watching over the warez, this is one quality site.
2) I wouldn't say longdong is big, but when he gets aroused, entire counties pass out for lack of blood pressure.
Posted by: haineux on March 24, 2004 02:35 PMThis Boggle 1.0.1.....it reeks of heresy and rice pudding.
Therefore, I find it necessary to condemn the condonation of any and no activities pertaining to the art of hamster painting. All prosecutors will be shot at the violator's expense.

Doctor Brown, urgent review required of Mr Laemkral's medication. It appears to be working again.
That is all.
Posted by: aussie boy on March 25, 2004 02:40 AMHoly crap! I just checked the side links for the first time. What the hell is up with the foot/wig shit? That's just weird. WEIRD I say.
But the crazy thing is that Naomi/Ladd actually write software. I didn't know they wrote Xbench. Man, sometimes I can be quite retarded. And I thought they were in Australia somewhere, not in the States.
Bloody hell, my whole mental image of PvT has been turned upside down. Better to not have known...
Posted by: longdongsilver on March 25, 2004 06:37 AMWell if they were from Australia, they would naturally migrate to a higher plane of intellect, as well as becoming vastly more attractive, both physically and spiritually. However, I guess I can forgive them for this. Poor people who get born in the wrong country. *shakes head sadly*
oh the above poster has a tiny, miniscule, microscopic...
