LUDOMIND, A NEW SOCIETY

Albert Frank

Ludomind was founded in 1999 by Albert Frank.

In 2003, it became an International Society, (re)founded by Peter Bentley and Albert Frank.

The goal of the society is - without any exception - to present BEAUTIFUL puzzles. What’s mean here "beautiful"? It means that, to solve the puzzles, one must think, think,…and think. No tricks, no jokes. The members must of course specify if they are the author of the puzzle, or give the origin. A puzzle may never come from a (active or inactive) test.

Besides, the puzzles may not be (too) cultural, may not be related to a language (some members don't speak English), and must not need high academics knowledge.

To become a member, ALL of the following conditions are needed:

- An estimated I.Q. > 150 (s.d. 16)

- To have created or selected ONLY beautiful puzzles

- To be active - this means to present a puzzle minimum from time to time

- To accept, on the mailing list, to send mails only - without any restriction - concerning puzzles.

Some of the puzzles presented up to know are really fantastic. They ask to reason, reason, and reason more! (They are not logical sequences). At the beginning of 2006, we have more than 100 original puzzles.
