Quadruple Mini

· Por Sommersmith · Publicado 2022-08-12T10:00:24.032Z

Constructor's Note
Four crosswords in one! Aside from 1-Across and 6-Across, each clues is paired with the other along its row or column, and it's up to you to figure out which clue goes with which entry. There is one correct solution. Inspired by SporcleMirror's Twin Minis at https://crosshare.org/tags/twin-minis

    So good!

      Thanks Mike!

      I really like the idea of linking the four minis in a loop. Great job ALIGN-ing letters on the left side - that tripped me up a bit as I filled in PARMA at 1D instead of 19D at first. The STUNT clue is awesome (was that also inspired by me? It's the title of one of my puzzles https://crosshare.org/crosswords/zrD8yXV0y1viqenBdN58/double-duty). KUDOS.

        I loved that puzzle of yours, but I actually made this one before yours went public! The stars ALIGN-ed, I guess! (I'll confess that I grabbed that clue from the database rather than thinking of it myself.) Thanks for the inspiration!

        Holy cow, this was so good!

          Thanks!

          Nice! I made my way around using only 1A - the second gimme mightn't be required, if you try this again. Love to see even more experimentation with the form!
          • Sommersmith constructor · 2022-08-12T14:16:20.657Z
            Can't really give one without the other! I originally didn't have any gimmes, but my test solver suggested giving folks a toehold. Glad you enjoyed it!
            • kieranjboyd 🤓4:19 · 2022-08-12T21:15:23.690Z
              No doi Kieran, you have to give one to give the other. Immediately my brain responds: Well then make the grids such that 1A and 6A can be clued in the same way. But that's just evil.

                Nine-fold mini where the top row is CREDO / DOGMA / TENET
          • Anonyman 🤓16:03 · 2022-08-12T12:24:03.237Z
            That was really satisfying to solve!

                As standalone minis, all four are really well constructed, but this arrangement is really well done. The clueing is outstanding. Thank you.
                • Sommersmith constructor · 2022-08-12T17:48:51.244Z
                  Thank YOU!

                    Wow! I loved it! It's really cool that you found four minis that are so close to each other (for some distance-measure in the space of all 5x5's, I mean). My hunch is that there can't be too many sets like this. You could corner the market.
                    • Sommersmith constructor · 2022-08-12T17:50:19.444Z
                      I definitely will be revisiting this idea - but I suspect there's plenty of space for other constructors too! 😀
                      • Maxish 🤓7:58 · 2022-08-13T16:19:38.388Z
                        Just caught up with your puzzle on WaPo: I groaned so good!

                        Really great solve! I love seeing 19A ref, especially from such a great movie!
                        • Sommersmith constructor · 2022-08-12T23:24:34.883Z
                          Glad you enjoyed it! And yes that movie and her performance in it are both so good!

                          Really clever and a great challenge. Nice to see something different.
