I have no idea what makes forum posts click for others, but for me, if I am drunk enough, I'll comment on most anything
Is there a special spot I should jump up and down and yell really loudly?
Or I could make all of the words in my posts turn to neon...
Isn't there a puzzle section?

"I have recently created a puzzle in the More Puzzles Forum entitled Never Give Up."
I'm puzzled at people's lack of interest in puzzles.

...
Jumping up and down without pointing to the puzzle?
For example ---> http://www.chess.com/forum/view/more-puzzles/five-minute-mate-in-one

I kind of feel dumb saying yes, I knew there was, but I was trying to get mine to fit under another category, so it wouldn't get lost in the shuffle...go figure...i haven't posted any puzzles since. I think I will wait til I have some good games that result in good positions for puzzles.
Makes sense.

to the OP, spend your 20% of the time making your puzzle (I know they are hard to do) and the 80% making the title.

let's see if that make sense now.
I have recently created a puzzle in the More Puzzles Forum entitled Never Give Up. It has been there for two days. I created it because, people were complaining the daily was too easy, a few days in a row. I thought maybe I'd give them a little tougher puzzle. No one seems to notice. Does any one have any ideas? I am sure there are many capable players who can find the solution, but I am curious to see what people think of it. It took me a while to solve it myself.
