Well that was a tad too straightforward! Admirable construction - let's take nothing away from that. But the clues lack something, cunning perhaps, that makes for a Listener. A good one for a busy...

A superb construction with a good mix of clue difficulty. In a few cases, some clues were very tough indeed which I wouldn't have been able to cold-solve. I'm afraid the "helpful message" came too...

This became so much easier after a few answers had been entered. Up until then it was cold solving until a pair of matching letters was obtained. End result was unambiguous. Many thanks, Demoniacal....

A fairly early PDM although the final move took a while to identify. Tough but fair cluing and great fun overall. 32d almost brought us to despair but it finally gave up its secret. Thanks, Nutmeg....

Very clever puzzle. But I did have to reverse engineer from the instruction rather a lot.

A top quality multi-layered puzzle, requiring a fair amount of lateral thinking to complete, but which thankfully ends unambiguously. Many thanks, Yorick - that was one of the best of the year.

Thanks, Ploy. I liked the way the message was derived from the grid, but I felt the theme wasn’t really reflected in what turned out to be a fairly standard puzzle of its type - quite a slog, too,...

A beautiful construction although the unclued lights rather gave the game away. An excellent introductory Listener. Thanks, Eclogue....

I thought this was a terrific puzzle. Really enjoyable grid fill, lots of thematic material and a clever use of the displaced letters. Thanks very much, Avian....
