    I think everybody’s thinking right now, “So what are the unique prizes?” :D

    Hi, Yoshinori! James is still working out details, but we should have rules and prizes posted a week from today.

    Very clever, Mr Lundin! You are going to get into such trouble when you reveal the answers, I’ll be able to hear the moans and groans from here.

    Thus far, I know of one person who’s solved the puzzle.

    I received a comment that 2-down was “crewl”. I confess my first choice was ‘singular hotshots’.

    Singular hotshots? How crewl. Sorry, couldn’t help it.
