Awesome. A less for the day. I didn't bother looking up what would come next, just knowing how to find it is good enough for me. :D

Good teaser! The title was a big clue so I thought it had something to do with pi. When, I looked at the numbers I realized the missing number is 3. Good, easy teaser. :D

Awesome! I memorized pi to 25 decimal places, so I got this one! I rarely get series teasers... I'm only here because I finished all the situations and mysteries. :-?
