How To Be An Answerer?

NHF7 | 08:24 Sun 22nd Dec 2013 | Crosswords

15 Answers

I have usually completed the Daily Telegraph Crossword and weekend Prize versions by 4:00am having received the newspaper electronically a couple of hours beforehand. Finding myself in the position to post the answers before most folk have woken to their hard copies, I am happy to oblige. However, how do I post answers to questions yet to be asked and how can I receive notification when someone is stuck? In other words, what is the most efficient technique you veterans adopt in answering questions?

Ok, but I finished today's some hours ago. How do I know when someone wants an answer? Is there a specific screen I need to loiter on? Sorry to bother you with this by the way - I am grateful for your assistance!

The requests will come under Latest Posts.

May I ask how you have finished today's crosswords?.The DT website is still showing yesterday's

When you go to a question it is always worth scrolling down to see what answers have already been given; that way you don't repeat answers that have already been posted hours or even days earlier.

I don't wait for BD's DT Blog, I get the downloaded crossword about 2:00am ish, sometimes later. Today it was early and done by 4:00am.

Yes, Dickie's explanation is correct.

Hi nhf7 don't you think posting all the answers would detract from the pleasure of solving crosswords in the first place.

NHF7

Question Author

Yes Dickie, I don't see the merit in giving the lot away so easily. I simply wanted to know how to provide answers when called for. I think I have cracked that, I just wait on the "latest posts" on the right. Thanks to all, I hope to now contribute (responsibly) to questions. NHF7 (Neil).

Hi NHF7, I don't mean to be rude, but, has it taken from Apr 2011 for you to work this out? Just curious
