I seem to remember a recent thread concerning playing marbles/aggies/mibs
But being an old non-pc fumbler completely out of Bill Gates' world I am completely unable to bring it up by WS' search algorithm
Is that because I've got the wrong site or because our search algorithm doesn't go to the archive
If the former, please forgive me--Thanks for all present and future help

Dale, I'd like to reiterate others' requests that you confine all your "algorithm" questions to a single thread? Thanks.

I did a search using the word <aggies> as the key since it's so unusual (like "for"!) and set the parameters to seach all forums and over the timeframe of the last year. It can still sometimes be frustrating, but a good lead like that word helps, normally.

I didn't see this really as an algorithm issue.

> issue
Me neither - we've all sprung queries like this at some point. If wanting to be punctillious, perhaps a forum other than Q&A about words might be ideal but.
