@Prateek: I was sad to see you lose out from the quiz finals on those two too. :( The moral of the story is to *always* write 42. ;)

@ Ankur – Yes ofcourse, Code Wars 2008 was definitely tough but one of the best organised events I have seen this year. It functioned smoothly. The level of the Quiz and Crossword was definitely higher, but we enjoyed it ;-)….Would have liked to be in the Quiz Finals 2 – Just wrote Mac OS X instead of Mac OS in a hurry and also “42″ would have taken me to the finals :-(…Anyways, that can happen – But It was good to come 2nd in the Crossword, in which me missed some, could have easily come 1st :-(
Congrats for the “42″ Towel – You people, do take 42 seriously…
I have tried the N-Crypton Paper and enjoyed solving it…
Good Job – Thanks to Ankur and the Code Warriors!

Kind of reminded me of the good old days, Code Wars was always great, was the most successful event for me after access. Lots of good memories :)

@Shantanu: Man, you plan to walk right up to me and stab with a knife, don’t you? ;) Such an embarrassing way to lose THE Towel.

@Aditya: Oh, we had that idea too. ;) (When the CW team saw the paper.) I was not really surprised when you came up with that one too.
