Vowelless Anagrammy (PfP #73c)

◆ · By Conflux · Published 2021-12-17T08:00:59.422Z

Constructor's Note
IMPORTANT: Before entering each answer, anagram it into another word or valid crossword entry. Then, remove all the vowels (including any Ys). Word lengths of the original words are in parentheses. Note that the anagramming happens before the removal of vowels, so if the answer to 1-Across was WORDY, you couldn't enter DRW (for DRAW) (or for DREW or DOORWAY), but you could enter DWR (for DOWRY). Enjoy?
Full answers (including what the words look like before anagramming and before de-vowel-ifying) can be found at http://tinyurl.com/pfp-73-answers.

      had to screenshot and draw on my screen to solve, but it's possible, as long as you actually figure out the answer to every clue from scratch. there's no chance of working backwards and using existing letters to figure out answers. you almost have to solve it like sudoku, writing in candidate letters into each square and eliminating them based off the crossing letters.

        Yeah, pretty much; I went to the answers afterwards because I could not get most of the anagrammed words from anagramming the words so instead I just thought of possibilities for each square and ruled them out one by one.

            Well that certainly sand-blasted my brain. In a good way.
