This afternoon I met with Uwe again to discuss puzzles and sticker colors-you will all be glad to know that PINK will not be going on the next release, there is just too much black/white on the puzzle and sadly, my pink fades away. I am holding 4 prototypes for up and coming puzzles, and sadly can't show you pictures of any of them. One looks like birds or kites or airplanes depending on your imagination. One looks like the covers of the bomb shelters that dot HK and that I saw throughout West Germany when I was growing up. One looks like a foot rest. One looks like a cast i wore when I broke my knee. And none of these descriptions are any good. I just love being a tease! You are sure to enjoy them all. Keep your eyes pealed for the newsletters they are coming soon to a website near you................

no, i didn't give a hint-I said if you twist them and put them together they may look like a birds nest if you use your imagination.  I have a good imagination! I can see a birds nest with lots of puzzles I have. I can also see boulders and trees-and I even have a rainbow on my shelf.

So what did Uwe say about all the undelivered orders from two months ago?

Wow! Talk about thread jacking! Send another email. I have already told you I forwarded the pm's and names of those I have to Uwe for his attention. Contrary to popular belief, I do NOT work for Meffert's. Come on guys-if you have a problem with a company, you go to the company-you don't go to a friend and hope they will sort it for you. I help when I can, I give him feedback, but I'm NOT PAID for any of this. I am way too busy worrying about my day job (that I do get paid for) and my studies to really have time to deal with problems you have with a company I don't work for  (unless of course you count puzzle currency and the joy of getting to see and play with new items first!) Oh oh oh, but I do get to pick out the stickers! And one of my other picks still has PINK!!! (and sadly that awful green-it honestly was a bad connection  ) Seriously though, I help when I can, but I can't make decisions for him-nor can I order a reshipment of your puzzles. Put my name on your email to let him know you are one of the people I spoke to him about. That will help some.

Problem is for me - and probably for many others - that sending email to this company is a one way road. This kind of communication is frustrating. I could write in German, though. Do think that could help?

Haha the only reason I said bird's nest is because that's what a hexaminx face looks like to me. Sigh...I can only dream of a mass production...
