| Dec 20, 2014 at 14:45 | comment | added | Jaydles Staff | I agree with this. I think we get into trouble when we start insisting that we can confirm how many others need some bit of info, or overlook how some lighter fare may just be the engine powering a community that generates some other, more "valuable" content. We won't be Yahoo Answers, and we DO like searchable stuff, but if a challenge helps stretch a few dozen brains here, I'm inclined to think it's a good thing unless it's undermining long-term site needs somehow, which I'm not seeing. | |
| Dec 18, 2014 at 19:58 | comment | added | jscs | Yeah, it's a meta tag, @randal'thor, but maybe using them is an exception to normal SE practice that this site needs. The question that follows is who decides the level? The author may not be the best judge. | |
| Dec 18, 2014 at 14:28 | comment | added | Rand al'Thor | @JoshCaswell Go to Puzzling, find the 'logic' tag, and browse through some of the recent/unsolved questions there. (As for 'really hard', we're not allowed to use that as a tag.) | |

| Dec 18, 2014 at 3:46 | comment | added | xnor | We're currently #4 on a search of "riddle puzzles". | |
| Dec 18, 2014 at 2:46 | comment | added | warspyking | Page # might also increase with an easily searched name. Searching "Puzzling" is quite hard. | |
| Dec 18, 2014 at 2:42 | comment | added | warspyking | @Emrakul Currently this site is on page 5 of a simple google search "puzzles". As the site content increases in quantity (Not that I forget how important quality is) that page number should lessen. At least it's top 4 of a search "puzzling" | |
| Dec 18, 2014 at 2:14 | comment | added | user20 | A major question is: will that quality content ever be found? | |
| Dec 18, 2014 at 0:56 | comment | added | jscs | An archive of excellent original puzzles would certainly not make the world a worse place. One challenge, though, is organizing/categorizing the puzzles for people who are already on the site. That is, "Okay, I'm going to Puzzling to do a couple of really hard logic puzzles this afternoon...how do I find those?" | |
