Did you do something you shouldn't have?

Site bans are usually given for a major breach of the Terms of Service (link at bottom of page), the commonest reasons are 3(a) multiple accounts being used to manipulate ratings or some such; 3(b) use of computer engines to assist in play; 3(c) gross harassment of another player or players. I'm sure there are other reasons but back in the day when they used to publish the Banned Players List those reasons were the only ones ever given.

Why did someone say you had the most offensive player name on the site? You were in on the thread.

Are you bigger than a breadbox?

The most common reference to breadboxes is the phrase "Is it bigger than a breadbox?" when trying to guess what some surprise object may be. This question was popularized by Steve Allen on the American game show What's My Line? and remains a popular question in the parlor game 20 Questions.

It's an interesting question, because breadboxes differ from house to house, let alone country to country. Maybe you should go for "is it bigger than a microwave?" instead.

But a microwave is a very small wave. Is it as big as a maxiwave?
The first home home microwaves hit the market in 1967.


believe it or not.

I like that bottom-hinge design. All modern microwaves open the same way, to a left-hand hinge. Doesn't always suit.
