Gamestuff for the

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Bored?
The game explains itself, and is mildly entertaining. I scored 8.29.

The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity but the one that removes the awareness of other possibilities, that makes it seem inconceivable that other ways are viable, that removes the sense that there is an outside.

I'm a trained graphic designer and I know geometry pretty well. ;)

Edit: Only managed 2.23 that time :(

Not that I'm suggesting anyone does, but anyone had a go at this while in the room above the chemist's? I'm on antidepressants, beta blockers and sleeping tablets at the moment so I'd probably be chucked out of the olympics.
Is my 3.21 still allowed?
