I remember getting Nadia all those years ago. I remember trying to walk her on a harness and her getting stuck in a tree. And her cuddling on my lap on the front steps at Butler Apartments. She was always such a lovely little princess! Entry 66 submitted by Andrew C. Millard on Mon Dec 25 2006.

Is there any plans for an actual set of cards to be produced specifically for the purpose of playing Cripple Mr Onion using the arcana from the discworld series? And if so where can I get them? Entry 61 submitted by Jaime Millard on Wed May 31 2006. I stumbled across your page while looking for info on my great-grandfather, Andrew L. Millard. Just thought I'd leave a note to say "hi". Entry 60 submitted by Priya. on Sat Feb 18 2006.
Hi Andrew... Haven't heard from you in a while... hope you are well. How are Nadia and Sasha? Entry 59 submitted by Andrew on Tue Dec 20 2005. http://www.crimron.net/
I’ve reinstated the form to allow people to submit new entries to the guestbook and added in another layer of protection to prevent spam-robots from filling this page up with rubbish. Entry 58 submitted by Andrew on Tue Sep 27 2005. http://www.crimron.net/ I’ve temporarily disabled the form to submit new entries to the guestbook because it keeps filling up with spam. Sorry for the inconvenience! Entry 57 submitted by Frank Maddix on Sat Sep 10 2005.
I worked in Hartford for a year at the University of Hartford. I once had to visit the Connecticut Medical Center. Entry 56 submitted by Melissa Chan on Thu Dec 16 2004. Hey Andrew! How’re you doing? I just wanted to say hello, and that I hope Nadia and Sasha are doing well. Of course, I hope you’re well, too. And I suppose I should write something positive about your pages here, too. Well, you’ve got some very nice webpages here. I very much appreciate them. Ciao! Entry 55 submitted by Chris on Tue Dec 7 2004. http://www.onionluck.com/
Wow! What a fascinating game. It does seem quite complicated (not so much the nature of the rules, perhaps, but remembering all the hands, modifiers etc.) but it sounds like fun. As a designer, I also find the idea of creating a custom deck of cards appealing. Entry 54 submitted by Priya on Fri Sep 17 2004. How are Nadia and Sasha?? Entry 53 submitted by Ali on Wed Aug 4 2004.
You got all that from Witches Abroad???? Utter genuis, really. Being a poker man myself of course, the whole ‘betting against the dealer’ shennanigans make it a bit frustrating, but the game can be easily modified to resemble a no limit texas hold em betting style. Entry 52 submitted by Andrew Millard Smith on Tue Aug 3 2004. Interesting! Entry 51 submitted by Andrew Charles Millard on Wed May 26 2004.
Quite the site dude, and a very impressive repertoire of educational achievement. And no, my name is not a joke, my name really is Andrew C (Charles) Millard, and I live/attend University in Canada. Any roots back in England? Entry 50 submitted by Zachary on Fri Mar 5 2004. I used a pair of normal decks. That way all cards of one suit match up, instead of getting more cards to match up a pair of suits. It’s much easier. Entry 49 submitted by ling on Mon Jan 19 2004. I like this website, and your experience is wonderful! The research about second harmonic generation is great! Can you give more introduction for that? Maybe many people have interest in it. Entry 48 submitted by Daniel M. on Wed Oct 22 2003.
Instead of using italian cards which are few and far between, you can use one pack of ordinary cards and one pack of novelty cards, i.e. with pictures of landmarks etc. on the front. Entry 47 submitted by Jessica Ayscue on Sun Jul 20 2003.
Cripple Mr Onion sounds like a very interesting — and complex — game. I enjoyed looking over the rules. I am also interested in playing Thud, which I read the rules of. My friend has the game board. Anyway, thank you so much. Entry 46 submitted by Jamey on Fri Jun 13 2003.
What Turkish hotel and carpet baron did you piss off? Entry 45 submitted by Harry on Sat Apr 12 2003. Hello, nice site. Entry 44 submitted by Cindy on Wed Apr 2 2003. My husband, eldest daughter (age 12) and I are big Discworld fans. The other day while playing Barbie Uno with the youngest (age 5), I announced “I’ve got a Cripple Mr Onion“ which led me to searching the web and finding this site. Many thanks from at least three of us (the youngin still like Barbie Uno). Entry 43 submitted by JD "Redkirk" McLeod on Wed Feb 5 2003. http://redkirk.go.to
BICYCLE E-Z-SEE LoVision Playing Cards, sold by the US Playing Card Company, have the same "Rider Back" design as the BICYCLE Rider Back Playing Cards. In addition, these cards have Diamonds in Green, and Clubs in Blue. The Face, Ace and Numbered cards are also distinguishable from the "standard" deck by having a LoVision/Large Font face. Entry 42 submitted by Kate Knott on Fri Sep 6 2002. I have been trying to get on to these pages for ages — and kept being told there was some sort of error! Now that I’ve got the rules I need someone to play. Entry 41 submitted by Mark on Mon Jun 24 2002.
Nice one! Entry 40 submitted by Bishop/Thump on Mon May 6 2002. Hey... are you really the guy that used to be Deutha? Just curious... Entry 39 submitted by Demon on Wed Apr 17 2002.
hah ha! Entry 38 submitted by uri19 on Sun Nov 18 2001. Cripple Mr Onion! At last! Andrew = the man! Keep up the good work! Entry 37 submitted by Krissi on Wed Oct 3 2001. http://www.geocities.com/dark_nyte1
It is so cool that someone would figure out Cripple Mr Onion! I’m going to have to find someone now who is willing to learn it with me! Entry 36 submitted by Steve Cox on Fri Jul 13 2001.
Andrew, Entry 35 submitted by Judy on Tue Jul 3 2001.
Hi Andrew, Entry 34 submitted by tomte on Thu Jun 7 2001.
I was wondering a little about the rules of Cripple Mr Onion. For simplicity, let’s say I’m playing the game with only the first (#0) modifier. As I see it, the best hand possible is a Triple Onion along with at least 3 more aces. This way no one can have more than a Double Onion, and you can’t be crippled. It doesn’t have to be anything strange with that, but it kind of leads onto my real question. Entry 33 submitted by Andrew on Sun Jun 3 2001. http://www.crimron.net/
I now have an iMac running OS X, so this site is served by Apache with the use of Perl CGIs Entry 32 submitted by Liz Thompson on Sun Dec 3 2000. Can’t follow the fizzicks, but love the hangman game. Only thing is, why doesn’t DEATH appear when you lose? Entry 31 submitted by Caroline Millard on Wed Nov 29 2000.
The rules of Cripple Mr Onion are just as fascinating (and totally incomprehensible) as when you first came up with the game and confounded the family with its early stages on holiday many years ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great pages. Was a little surprised to find there was only one other entry about the WPM. Your physics stuff looks very interesting. Read you later! Entry 29 submitted by clan pavia (Neva Kevin Bronwyn) on Tue Jan 11 2000. Thanks for the rules. What is a millennium hand now that it is 2000? Entry 28 submitted by Thor Mathsson on Tue Dec 7 1999.
Where is Death? Is he wisiting U... Entry 27 submitted by Roger Mailhot on Wed Sep 29 1999.
Well, I am impressed. Though I don’t have time to play games, your other sites are something to behold. I am answering your questions via email, may not be of interest to all. Entry 26 submitted by David Roberts III on Thu Sep 23 1999.
You have obviously worked very hard to make this explanation of the game as straightforward as possible. Entry 25 submitted by Elric of Melniboné on Tue Aug 17 1999. http://move.to/laengstersatzderwelt
Hi there! Entry 24 submitted by Grimm on Sun Aug 8 1999.
Exellent site! The explanations are very thorough and understandable. Thanks a lot. Entry 23 submitted by Luke on Wed Jul 28 1999. I think the rules of this game are too complex; are there any simpler versions? Entry 22 submitted by Twoflower (I guess you’ve got many of them!) on Sun Jul 11 1999. http://www.scbase.de/ Wow! A great site, a great game! Entry 21 submitted by Blaiden Ashby on Thu Jul 8 1999.
Just wanted to say hi, been a long time since last we spoke. Your site is looking great by the way. Entry 20 submitted by Andrew C. Millard on Tue Jul 6 1999.
That’s my real name, no joke!!! Entry 19 submitted by Dryade — sometimes called Alison on Sat Jun 26 1999. http://www.geocities.com/Wellesley/Garden/4700/
Great page — interesting texts — thanks Entry 18 submitted by S. Barker on Sun Jun 20 1999.
Wow! Great job, [Cripple Mr Onion] looks extremely complicated. A lot of time and effort obviously went into this! Entry 17 submitted by Marion on Sat May 8 1999. Look forward to reading the rules at leisure and trying to get someone to play it with me. Entry 16 submitted by Debra Cathleen Rogers-Cademy on Fri Apr 9 1999. http://www.wench.org/merchants/dc/
Hi there, hope to know you better soon at Darkstar’s events Entry 15 submitted by Ben Mastin on Tue Apr 6 1999. This is the best Discworld Web site. Entry 14 submitted by Sven Höhne on Fri Mar 5 1999.
Damn good site, I really liked the CMO pages... Entry 13 submitted by Ricardo Campos on Fri Feb 26 1999.
I just found this page which did surprise me, as I have all of Terry Pratchett’s books and I didn’t know I too could already play Cripple Mr Onion!! Thank you very much for this page and these rules! I can hardly wait to try the game! Entry 12 submitted by J. Trevor-Allen | ||
