An excellent puzzle. I enjoyed the first stage of the problem as logic was required throughout rather than testing umpteen possibilities. The gridfill was quicker than anticipated and there is no...
I rarely post, and have never started a thread, but I wanted to congratulate and thank Cagey for an all-time classic Listener. Surely in the very top tier (top 5, at least) in my 20+ years of solving....
Another great circular puzzle. I enjoyed solving the clues -- just pitched at the right difficulty. 32 was the final clue for me which I should have solved far quicker! Initial inroads were made in...
