- Fun one Taylor! I liked JAGUARSHARK13D😂😂. I had DOPE for DUPE
JAGUARSHARKElusive beast in "The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou"10D- nice trap clue!DUPEFool- I’ve been wanting to put JAGUARSHARK13Din a puzzle for weeks!
JAGUARSHARKElusive beast in "The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou" - How did you feel about the cluing on this one? Too easy?
- One suggestion I have is to rework NLUA17Aout of the grid. It's a tough corner to fill, but solvers are not receptive to nonsense words... I remember when I first started making puzzles I would invent words all the time when I got stuck... SKUA/ALKIE might work for that corner...
NLUAAnagram for luna- Glad you enjoyed it!I actually thought about SKUA/ALKIE, but ALKIE really put me off.. I just didn’t want something that felt derogatory in my grid. Hmmmm.. maybe I’ll revisit that corner another day, I’m just afraid I’ll end up having to rework half the grid lolThanks!
- That's a good point! I've used alkie (or one of its spelling variants) in a puzzle before and haven't given much thought that it may be offensive to some... I think I need to be more mindful in the future. Thanks!
- lots of nice long answers in here... JAGUARSHARK13Dand FLOORISLAVA
JAGUARSHARKElusive beast in "The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou"23Dare fun entries... would probably add "with "the"," for floor is lava clue... that game definitely brings back lots of fun childhood memories - thanks :)FLOORISLAVAChildhood game, often played with couch cushions - Very fun, a like some pop culture references that arent ALAN ALDA or ISSA RAE :)
