    I dunno why I thought putting JIFFY and QUIZ in the same 5x5 grid was a good idea, but here we are.
    • AuLeaf 🤓47s · 2024-06-09T18:33:40.640Z

        That would be possible with a rebus cell!
        • AuLeaf 🤓47s · 2024-12-22T23:00:26.392Z
          I've done it before, as part of a taskmaster-like game! Maybe I should publish that :o
