This is a fun game. One of my favorites.
And yes, I have the sequel.

For reasons I have yet to figure out, articles I have bookmarked in Code Project often do not stay bookmarked. I would say out of 10 every 10 articles I bookmark, only 2-3 are blessed with permanency. Some articles, regardless of how many times I keep bookmarking them again, never make it into the permanent fold. Just wondering if anyone else is having a similar problem?

The latest example of bookmark impermanence is this article 'A Basic Particles System by Sagui' that I have thrice bookmarked in the last two days, yet it still does not show up on my bookmark list, and when I go the article, one sees it has not been bookmarked. Strange.

It appears that the item is being bookmarked (see you list of bookmarks), however the indicator on the article page is not reflecting this. It may be a caching issue. We will look into it.

Thank you for looking into this. I always check my bookmark list first. It is only when I cannot find what I have bookmarked would I bookmark it again on an article's page. BTW, is there some way to search just within one's bookmark list? Thanks again.

If you haven't had a chance yet, come check out our Beginner's Guide to HTML5 and CSS3 Article Competition[^] We're just halfway through now and there are still a few tutorials left to write so it's not too late to get involved!
Here's how it works: Each Monday we release two article titles and corresponding descriptions of the topics to be covered. You choose of those those two (or both if you're crazy) and have two weeks to write a tutorial that covers the listed topics and is aimed at beginner web devs.
The best tutorial for each title wins a CodeProject Prize back (details on the contest) page and will be included in a final definitive "CodeProject Beginner's Guide to HTML5 and CSS3". At the end of the contest the judges will select one author to take home a Google Nexus 7 for their commitment to the overall contest and beginner's guide.
Here is the list of current articles you can choose to write about[^]. The Canvas and SVG ones are due this upcoming Sunday and the App Cache and Web Storage articles that were announced on Monday aren't due until May 4.
***Everyone that posts an entry for either of the articles due this Sunday April 27 will be entered into a draw to win a Special CodeProject Mug that you can use for your... uh..."cool beverages."[^] Just post an article for you chance to win!
Cheers and happy Friday from the team here at CodeProject!

Would be best if you can clean it up a bit, make sure it meets all the requirements of the contest (see the contest page for details) and ensure it's aimed a beginner audience. But yeah, would be happy to have you submit an updated version to the contest.

Police have just reported that a short fortune teller has escaped from prison.
It's a small medium at large.

My understanding is that the fortune teller was at first reasonably content in prison but then escaped because they were having a tough time in prison, their fellow inmates said that they "always like to strike a happy medium"...

The number of workspaces appear to be growing at a hell of a rate.
@chris-maunder do you have any shiny graphs to show the growth?
Are the active members of this site really generating that many or is there something else at play here?

Every time someone downloads a zip file from an article, a forked workspace is created.
Since I check attached files when approving articles, I am constantly deleting workspaces that are automatically forked to my account. I wish there was a user preference setting for that.

That must be like some kind of exponential self-destruct feature then!

Ew. Why fork unless someone specifically requests to fork a workspace? That is really bad implementation, IMO.

The reason seems to be that you get an exact copy of what you downloaded initially so when you need it again later and the article has been modified or isn't available anymore you still have a copy. Yet I would rather have an option that asks me if I want to fork or just download it.
Example:
-click on the link to the attached files to the article
-download page with 2 buttons ("just download", "fork and download")

That is what I thought, doesn't sound right to me...
