| Nov 26, 2016 at 18:52 | comment | added | supercat | Two approaches I've sometimes used are to postulate that the entities with which one is interacting treat rudeness as punishable by death, or specify that if someone who is asked a ambiguous or paradoxical question may give any answer which is not unambiguously less appropriate than some alternative answer. Someone judging solutions should not seek loopholes to claim straightforward questions are ambiguous, but should not be averse to assuming that ambiguous questions may be answered in the most vexatious way possible. | |

| Jan 26, 2015 at 16:56 | comment | added | KSmarts | Is this about your "writing numbers" question? | |
| Jan 26, 2015 at 9:36 | comment | added | xnor | I do like the direction of this question, but I feel like you could get better answers if you narrow down to a type of question. Also, there's no need to bring up downvotes and votes to close. | |

| Jan 26, 2015 at 9:24 | comment | added | dmg | @McKevin You do have a point. This is one of the few SE communities that are still somewhat friendly. | |
| Jan 26, 2015 at 9:16 | comment | added | Mc Kevin | Post your puzzle on puzzling.se and refine them ;) | |

| Jan 26, 2015 at 2:51 | comment | added | Set Big O | I think the problem is that it really depends on the puzzle. I can't think of a way to answer this in general (beside getting some extra eyes on it before posting). | |
| Jan 26, 2015 at 1:14 | comment | added | EFrog | The description of the SE is "For those who study the creation and solving of puzzles." | |
