I'm a moderator on Arqade/Gaming.StackExchange! Besides my moderator duties, I also occasionally contribute to the Arqade Blog and write tools against the SE API. I enjoy video games, and I like helping people enjoy games as well.

On top of all that, I co-author (with my partner in crime EBongo) a blog about gaming and technology called Without the Sarcasm. Here are some recent items of interest:

You can also follow me on Twitter.

If you've run out of internet or just have a disorder that compels you to click all the links, you may be interested in other things I have been involved with, like:

comment How do I optimize this scenario to achieve the lowest score?
@Glen_b, I understand that. "Lowest final score" is really what I wish to optimize. As you've noted, however, that's not really something I can pick. Therefore, I'm searching for a secondary characteristic that gets me as close to that as possible.

@Glen_b, I'll take any advice on the best axis to optimize on. I think minimizing expected score is probably good, but I'll admit I don't know for certain that's the best that can be done.

comment Is it possible to estimate the odds of winning a multi-entry contest, when I don't know the breakdown of entries?
Thank you for the excellent answer. I'm glad this problem was interesting. I was concerned that it might not be properly within the scope of the site (it's a bit on the "specific case/do my work for me" side), but I'm happy that instead, it was an interesting challenge.

As far as I am aware (and has been demonstrated during the contest), the assumption from the given information is correct - no one person can have more than 6 entries, one of each "type."
