Madhatter5 Cryptic #4

Post by madhatter5 »

This is one is certainly on the challenging side - took me two days to solve and I got three entries wrong. But I'm sure you'll all do better than me!

You can send completed grids to jdrubin@middlebury.edu for verification.

Good luck!

Solved, I presume. Will confirm with Josh. I’ve seen enough of a certain letter for a while.

This seemed about the same difficulty as the last one. Very enjoyable. For a while I thought every entry would have something in common.

I'm puzzled about the OP ("two days to solve"). Aren't you the constructor? What am I missing ? :)
