Hello!

I would just like to thank the Project Euler team and Colin for a wonderful website. I am not aware of any other programming/math problem website where all the problems are of such high quality and so fun. I've been solving the problems here since 2004 and even then, when the number of visitors was only a fraction of what they are now, the problems were great. And they have only improved since then which is quite a feat!

Cheers! :-)

You're welcome, and long may we continue.

Perhaps I can also take this opportunity to thank the team for their dedication and commitment. I am only a tiny cog in a marvellous and most efficient piece of machinery. If members could see what was happening behind the scenes, where problems are developed, they would not believe how much work goes in to refining the wording and arriving at the optimum parameters for the problems, so as to create the best balance between accessibility and challenge. Along with the full team members there are two sub-teams working collaboratively from conception to birth of some real gems of problems. Thank you! 8-)

nicely put bjorn, i couldn't agree more! i haven't been around as long as you have, but i've enjoyed working on the problems a lot and seen some really interesting patterns. discovering something new yourself and then using it to solve a problem really is a great experience

How does one become a team member or (perhaps more plausibly) sub-team member?

I notice you did become a sub-team member :D
