Is that deductions mini-game with the $25 cash prize still going on? I was winning just before the Dec. LSAT but I lost the link.

I think the reason I miss those sometimes is because when I have it down to two I accidently end up bubbling in the one I eliminate instead of the one that's left correct.

Yup. The link to the arcade is http://www.manhattanlsat.com/arcade - we just switched the game, have fun.

And funny how a PC title now offends more than the standard ones! Here in NYC, it's reflex to say "happy holiday" - but it's a Christmas game indeed!
