I grew up, and still am within the Satmar community the one based out of Williamsburg. My friend
showed be this place and is helping me do one of these because we thought it would be interesting

People in this thread [E.N. - the Wordle thread] might also like the (sort-of-)game Turing Machine, which should be out in the US in a couple of weeks.
The object is to find a hidden 3-digit sequence, with digits always being 1-5. You are given an array of "verifiers" which
you can test a single 3-digit sequence against during a given round, and which will tell you whether the sequence you
have put in has the same relationship to the verifier's statement as the hidden sequence does.
For example, a verifier might say "The digits are in ascending order." If you input a sequence that is in ascending order,
a "Yes" means that the hidden sequence is also in ascending order, while a "No" means that it is not (and vice versa for
a non-ascending-order sequence).

In each round, players create their sequence, privately test it against up to X verifiers and record the results, then
simultaneously decide whether they are ready to guess the hidden sequence. Those ready to make a guess do so
privately. An incorrect guess eliminates a player (i.e., only one guess per player per game). If one player guesses
correctly, that player wins. If multiple players guess correctly in the same round, the one who did the fewest tests
wins. Alternatively, you can play solo (this isn't much of a game anyway - it's a puzzle-solving race).
The game includes a number of printed puzzles and there will be a website and/or app to provide more.

I haven't mentioned how you test the verifiers. Each digit you can put in a sequence (i.e., 1 in position 1, 2 in position 1, etc) has its
own punch card with various holes. When any 3 of these are overlaid, only one hole is left all the way through. Each verifier has an
answer card with a yes/no symbol on each of 125 spaces. Putting a sequence's punch cards over an answer card shows your answer.

Image (the symbols in the corners are to verify that all the cards are oriented correctly):



(The check here means that just as the numbers in the sequence being tested add up
to a multiple of 3, so do the hidden sequence's numbers add up to a multiple of 3.)

The NATO phonetic alphabet:
Alfa, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Foxtrot, Golf, Hotel, India, Juliett, Kilo, Lima, Mike, November,
Oscar, Papa, Quebec, Romeo, Sierra, Tango, Uniform, Victor, Whiskey, X-ray, Yankee, Zulu.

(The misspellings are intentional. Juliet with one T could be an issue for Francophones.)

They said they thought I was dead. Perhaps I am. I can no
     longer recall.
Still and all, it was necessary to observe the formalities.


"Were you always like this?"
"Like what?"
"A madman. With a time machine."
"Oh, no. It took ages until I got the time machine."


In March I received three pieces of junk mail, the first telling me I might have already won
a million dollars, the second telling me that I might already have been elected to the Academie
Francaise, and the last telling me I might already have been installed as the titular head of
the Holy Roman Empire.


My Mum wanted to name me Susan. My Dad wanted to name me Henrietta, after his
aunt. Neither of them would budge an inch. I am the only Susietta in my school
or, probably, anywhere. My sister's name is Alismima, for similar reasons.


Several days later, it was returned to me by a taxi driver, who had found it on
the pavement outside the cafe. He told me my mother had appeared to him in
a dream and given him my address and her recipe for old-fashioned cheesecake.


She asked me when I had started feeling a need to grant people's wishes, and
whether I felt a desperate need to please. She asked me about my mother, and
I told her that she could not judge me as she would judge mortals, for I was
a djinn, powerful and wise, magical and mysterious.

The new downstairs bathrooms in Satmar (4th & Forest, Lakewood) have
walls with an odd optical effect. Check them out if you get a chance.

(Also note at least one stall in which the TP dispenser impinges
on the clear above-toilet space required by an adult human.)
