Phoenix Network Forums

Hello all,

I am 30 years old. I have quite a few hobbies some are tech related others are not.. I will name a few. I am currently learning C programming. I have been interested in coding for quite a while and have never really had the time until recently. I have learned bits and pieces of other languages in the past. Pascal, Perl, Python. I never reached a fluency with any of these basically because of the time issue. I am also interested in nature, hiking, rock climbing, traditional woodworking.... I have many hobbies and interests some of which have been with me since childhood others come and go. I am also a puzzle freak, especially sudoku, logic problems, and cryptic crosswords.

hi there!
welcome to the phoenix network...
puzzle freak, eh? got any good recommendations for online puzzles?
I recently discovered Picross/nonograms/paint by numbers/whateverelse for myself... sudoku is great as well, my dad got me addicted to it... he loves doing those...

I do not usually do puzzles online. I much prefer the pencil paper type. Sudoku is cool rather addiciting. I have recently really gotten into cryptic crosswords. I do those till I get so infuriated at them then do a couple sudoki's to cool down.

i did not really know what you meant with "cryptic" crosswords but i just found a nice wikipedia article about those...
I think i've never really done one of those, but I guess there are not many german versions of those yet... let's see how long it takes for those to pop uo over here =)
