Well, it's February, and that means that it's time for our monthly hangman results, and our next puzzle of the month!

The result is: Absolute and utter disappointment that no one dare to guess GPS, GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM and score 3086 points! Now the jackpot has risen to 3607 points, and you can actually win this amount if you can JUST go to this link here >> app.php/hangmangame?mode=quess&game_index=1881&start=0 and fill in all those blanks!

So, you know what to do, right? Well, don't just stare at the screen, start solving that puzzle, and them some!

AND NOW!

Time to announce our winner for last month!

Our winner happens to be @Tiger21821, who happens to have scored 262 points, and that happens to win him 10262 forum points!

[Tiger21820]

Well, another month, another unsolved puzzle... Well, at least the jackpot prize keeps growing! The answer to last month's puzzle was KATCHY BUG CATCHER AND AN ICE MAKER! Oh yeah, have you heard that the jackpot these days is worth 4129 Points? To win this prize, app.php/hangmangame?mode=quess&game_index=1889&start=0 is the place to be! (Or just let time run out and raise the jackpot even FURTHER! I suspect that's what everyone's doing! They're just biding their time until WHAM!! Stolen by @Demon_Skeith after the very last minute before 7 others are just about to guess the final letter! Hmm...)

In other news, our winner for last month's round of hangman was our forum's very own Administrator, and mascot, @Tiger21820!

... OH WAIT, THAT'S ME!

Watt'ya know! I just won 10217 forum points after scoring a healthy 217 points! Way to go, me!

[Tiger21820]

As of the time of this post, I have given out a total of 2567294 forum points as prizes!

[Tiger21820]

You thought I wasn't doing a hangman round this month? APRIL FOOLS!

The jackpot has risen to 4653 forum points, and you can try for it by clicking on the link below, and that is no joke!
app.php/hangmangame?mode=quess&game_index=1895&start=0

Not that anyone would care, but the answer for the last puzzle was DEGAUSS YOUR MONITOR, AND SAY NO TO MICROSLOP!

Even more non-jokes tell of a winner who goes by the name of @Kougyoku who (no joke, no kidding!) had a score of 50, and won 10050 forum points! NOT A JOKE!

[Tiger21820]

I had to update my forum to irreversibly upgrade php 8 (from 7.4, and cannot roll back) to install an (epic) extension, and unfortunately, this resulted in the Hangman extension becoming WOEFULLY broken (though still very much usable, but you'll see how), so puzzles of the month are hereby suspended until I can fix the extension! But in the meantime, why not play here: app.php/arcade/list

The extension will be fixed at some point, and MOT Hangman rewards will still occur, but Profile flair doesn't work, either! I will write down which flair I owe to what user, so I can give you them! (It's an AJAX issue )

[Tiger21820]

On second thought, the extension still works, it's just the overview that needs to be fixed! I will resume the Puzzle of the Month, but it'll be easier to attempt it by clicking on the links to them!

[Tiger21820]

Oh boy... Well, let's just get it over with:

Yes, we are still doing the puzzle of the month, even though the DMZX Hangman Extension... is a little green around the gills or something...

Go and try the new puzzle here and win 5173 points here if you want: app.php/hangmangame?mode=quess&game_index=1909&start=0

I did ask for help with a fix, and hopefully I'll get a definitive answer before this round ends, and when that happens, I make a follow-up post stating the happy news!

The answer for last month was TIGER NEVER DID ANYTHING EXCEPT DELAY THE HANGMAN AND SUDOKU REWARDS, WINNER ANNOUNCEMENTS, OR ANY OTHER RESULTS, NOR DID HE MAKE THE NEXT PUZZLE OF THE MONTH FOR APRIL FOOLS, ISNT THAT WEIRD? LAZY OAF! PERHAPS THAT WAS THE APRIL FOOLS JOKE ALL ALONG!

...wow, aren't I the lazy one? I wish I could say that the DMZX Hangman Extension breaking after the update to php 8.2 WAS an April Fool's joke, BUT IT'S MAY NOW!!!!

Oh yeah! I forgot!

The winner for last months MOT Hangman round (which STILL works! Hallelujah! ) with a score of 250 was @Maria! Our dear angel won 10250 points!

[Tiger21820]

Guess what! We have a winner FINALLY!!!! The user @tomthebomb has solved the puzzle of the month which was THIS WASNT THE LAST PUZZLE OF THE MONTH! BUT I HOPE YOU HAD FUN TRYING TO SOLVE THIS ONE ANYWAY!

He won 5173 forum points! Congratulations!

The next puzzle of the month will start with a jackpot prize of 500 points!

Good luck next month! And play our new arcade which has 130 games!

[Tiger21820]

It's fixed!!!

What I did is change row 101 from

Code: Select all

return $row['lost_time'];

to

Code: Select all

return is_array($row) ? $row['lost_time'] : null;

It shows up perfectly!

AND this is forum post ID 13765!
