Pull Your Goalie

◆◆ · By Cullen · Published 2020-12-22T17:04:42.710Z

I'm still getting a feel for clue difficulty, let me know if you thought this was too easy or hard. I had fun with the theme, might do another similar one soon!

    Fun one Cullen! I really liked the theme. I struggled w/ the SE corner - I can't believe I couldn't get SLAYER though, we used to play that all the time! 😂

      Thanks for the puzzle. Clues seemed fair...ESI, LCMS, ECU, ESU, FIRN and OGEA were all new to me

        I found this really hard!
        • Kent D 11:06 · 2020-12-27T21:54:27.534Z
          Yeah, that was pretty hard but lots of fun! I didn't know TIBS or ESI (and I was a paramedic for 10 years - go figure). I couldn't come up with the Halo game mode or the Electrical abbr., otherwise I wouldn't have had to use the reveal 🙃

            Thanks for the feedback everyone! Looks like the stuff I thought would be tricky was an adequate level of tricky, according to the puzzle stats (which is a really cool feature by the way). I'll definitely try to clear up some of the more esoteric fill in the future though.

              Fun puzzle with an engaging clueing voice and mostly clean fill. I'd gauge it as Thursday difficulty - challenging but mainly fair.

                I found it pretty difficult. I got really thrown off because 48 is not the LCM of 4 and 14. The theme and 20a are very clever, though!
