girlcow's 'Mystery' Midi

· Di girlcow · Pubblicato 2024-08-18T17:30:24.372Z

Meta Prompt
This month’s midi contest tasked constructors with making “a puzzle worth cracking,” so naturally I tried my hand at a meta crossword. The meta answer is eight letters long, but only one character.

    I didn’t want to make a very hard meta answer, but I hope it still managed to be fun. I’d be interested to hear any feedback. Thanks for solving 🔍
    • Darth 🤓5:34 · 2024-08-18T17:58:49.885Z
      Super cool! Nice idea and well constructed!
      • apeminkie 🤓3:32 · 2024-08-18T18:36:38.771Z
        Brilliant! 🎻
        • kurtalert 🤓2:37 · 2024-08-18T18:19:03.482Z
          Beautiful! I worked through a few other possibilities with the numbers before finally getting to the one I should have tried right away, the A1Z26 cipher... like you clearly told us to in the puzzle. LOL.
          • girlcow costruttore · 2024-08-18T19:22:22.949Z
            Lol, thank you!

            What does it say that I clocked the meta method in the first two clues?
            • damefox 🤓2:05 · 2024-08-18T18:49:31.699Z
              Very fun! Nice hint at DECODE to get solvers thinking along the right line.

                This one came together super cleanly, for both the fill and the answer. It's often a toss-up whether I can wrap my head around a meta, but this one was very well constructed -- Brava!

                  I happened to guess this because I thought of an 8-lettered character who is connected to mysteries. I don’t understand how I was supposed to suss it out. Any help ?
                  • Ben Tarling 🤓3:34 · 2024-08-22T07:03:38.646Z
                    23-Down points towards an A1Z26 cipher (meaning that the number 1 = A, 2 = B, etc). Then you just have to find all of the numbers in the clues (eight in total) and find their corresponding letter using the cipher, which will give you SHERLOCK. Hope that helps!
