Bob Lodge (1940–2008) had created many puzzles and contests for GAMES Magazine. Bob was an expert trickster in the way he wrote and constructed puzzles, often placing many layers of red herrings within his creations for puzzlers to decipher. Over the years, he made several acrostic puzzles and other challenges which reflected his wide range of interests, including U.S. geography, presidential history, stamp collecting, and mathematical brain teasers. One of his most ambitious contests included the number-based scavenger hunt Ultimate Calculatrivia in late 2003. A resident of Washington state, Bob died on December 21, 2008 after a battle with cancer.

Famous quotes containing the word lodge:
“The wrinkles in my brow,
The furrows in my face,
Say, limping age will lodge him now
Where youth must give him place.”
—Thomas Vaux, 2d Baron Vaux Of Harrowden (1510–1566)
