I can’t believe Autumn has already arrived and the first day of October is already here! Time to start thinking about some Halloween-themed puzzles! Does anybody have a clever costume they plan to wear?

Well, I promised a link to a more online-based logic puzzle site and I’m delivering.

Hello everyone,

October 15 is our birthday – yep, Tanga’s growing up. A whole whopping 1-year old. And yes, we’re going to get Tanga Joe a pacifier.

To celebrate, we’re going to release some cool new features on the site, and we’d like to do it in grand Tanga style! We’re looking for 100 brand new One-Word Wonders. What will we do with those puzzles? We’re not telling – but we bet

Last week’s rebus contest was quite a success. Apparatus and Philana traded rebus blows with Apparatus barely edging Philana after last week’s guest judge, my magic 8-ball, returned an answer of “outlook not so good” when I asked “do you think Philana will go on a date with me?” Sorry, Philana, but them’s the breaks :) You can see last week’s winning entry here

The focus for tonight’s Tanga Times is Logic Problems. In that spirit, the puzzles being linked to are not web-based but must be downloaded. Actually, that wasn’t the intent but it happened to work out that way. Next week I will do another Logic-themed TT and will try to find links that are web-based applications for solving logic puzzles.

Wow, our first Tanga party. Fun was had by all. Tanga Monkey gave away a ton of board games at the auction. Lots of games played, food ate, drinks drank. We all honored Wrayman, the lone Super Tanga User at the party.

Today’s puzzle comes from the new Fall TV premieres. Now, I know that we won’t see Lost, 24 or Battlestar Galactica until 2008, but there are plenty of shows to keep us complaining until then. From the tabloid headlines below, name the shows. First one to get them all gets all the points (20).

Most of you seem to be enjoying these rebus contests, so I figure we’ll keep at it for a little while longer. This week, let’s do movies. Try to keep it to fairly well known movies, although a good rebus should yield the answer regardless. Nevertheless, we don’t want to struggle with some obscure, Norwegian cult classic. Or do we?

Obligatory example:

Hey all you hypercross authors!

We will eventually have a way for you to tag you puzzles as draft or final versions. In the mean time, could everyone please name your puzzles “draft” until you are ready for them to be published?

When you design your grids, if you keep them under 13 columns then the letter boxes don’y get laterally compressed. You can have as many rows as you want.

Welcome to your weekly installment of V’s Riddle Corner. Each Friday evening (posted on Saturday!) I’ll provide you with a few riddles to earn you some Tanga Points, and perhaps even a few links to waste some time. The links will tend to be to interesting facts or fun videos, while the puzzles will frequently be based in logic or maths (gasp!). So, without further adieu…

For my first run at the Tanga Times, I thought I’d try a good, old-fashioned trivia contest. Every question relates to games in some way, no matter how indirectly. All 20 points will go to the first person to post all 10 correct answers.

1. In the film “Searching for Bobby Fischer,” Joe Mantenga played the father of a young chess prodigy. Who does he play on The Simpsons?

2. Actor Michael J.
