        I see the anagram and that ENIG is in it in grid order, but I don't see the ordering principle?

          Try googling Enigmarch
        • kurtalert 🤓4:41 · 2024-04-03T21:46:49.723Z
          Curious to know exactly what the ordering principle was, but fortunately I only really saw two options- TEACHING and CHEATING!
