There seems to be a sight back-up in the Pros section at the moment (~160 puzzles), so here's some more food for the Masters. Open to everyone.

I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

True. :)

However, that still leaves nearly 100 puzzles, many of which have seen little or no activity. I've only moved up a few puzzles of mine that were open to Pros for 10 days or more with no questions or responses. I've also been actively working to move stalled puzzles up from the Rookie and Expert sections.

And while it appears as though the Masters have plenty of puzzles available to them (339 total), after subtracting the Black Hole puzzles (232), puzzles that are more than a year old, and puzzles featuring North Korean vehicles (for which it seems none of us have the resources to solve), there are currently only 31 active Master level puzzles.

It's a problem. The Masters have very little to play with, and there are few Pros who attempt puzzles. It's a sort of stalemate. I have many puzzles almost to myself - I can search for the solution knowing I've got all the time in the world. It's not much fun anymore.

Anyway, is this anything to do with Glasspar ?

No, but it contains some British components.
