Wow! This should be a higher tier in the 3AM club - those who solve the contest as soon as it appears.

Banana's peeled. It was indeed a good puzzle.
Better than the last one - but that's just because I couldn't figure that one out!

Hmm; I just asked for an extension of the Joon OTB puzzle subscription. Maybe I need to switch over to the FMI mug...

Hello solvers,
The solution to this week's puzzle was CIDER.
The five long entries each ended with letters that could almost spell a word preceding BEER:
There's a new contest puzzle, and a new post in this forum for it. I hope you give it a try!
The solution to this week's puzzle was CIDER.
The five long entries each ended with letters that could almost spell a word preceding BEER:
- DATE OF BIRTH (BIRCH)
- DOPPELGANGER (GINGER)
- AMUSEMENT PARK (DARK)
- NORTH AMERICA (RICE ... or as one solver pointed out, ICE)
- HAND AND FOOT (ROOT)
There's a new contest puzzle, and a new post in this forum for it. I hope you give it a try!
