CAM64 Crossword King's Alumnus by Schadenfreude

[Vagans]

Anyone else enjoying Schadenfreude's latest in the Cambridge Alumni Magazine? I've got a full and am waiting for the penny to drop on the theme, but not looking for hints (Listener rules please) - just as shame to let a good puzzle go unnoticed.

[Vagans]

full grid that is (and slow keyboard)

[Vagans]

Delicious, and a fitting tribute, if not quite his style. 56a and 52d add to the fun. On now to Omniscience in the online edition of Oxford Today, if I can find any spare moments at what is rather a busy time for me.

[vetuste_ennemi]

Yes, I thought I'd got the theme and spent a long time looking for clever synonyms when it was all in the dedication.

[word_cross]

I've filled lots of the grid - big gaps in the top right and bottom left still though. Filling in the gaps between listeners with this one!

[word_cross]

Been niggling away at this one and am nearly there now! Just considering how to enter - it says it can be done online, but I can't see anything about it on the page that's linked to. Obviously I can email or post it, but just wondering if I was missing something?

[Vagans]

I'm not aware of any online facility except email, though the wording implies such.

[vetuste_ennemi]

Don't you have to be an alumnus?

[Vagans]

I don't think so. The magazine can be subscribed to by non-alumni, and there is no instruction that only alumni may enter the competition...

[Coalminers]

That having been said, whenever I see the previous winners, I think I always see an associated college and matriculation year. Mmmm....I wonder

[word_cross]

All done at last - Schadenfreude really does make you work for every last answer doesn't he!

[word_cross]

Still reflecting on this crossword and I think it's one of the best I've done for a while - tough, but very fair. Thanks Schadenfreude.
