Subject: Cross With a Word Challenge
Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Oct 22 25
Once in a while, we like to make sure that there's an opportunity to stretch the minds and bounds of our crossword creators with a new challenge, and heading into QuiWriMo it would seem to be a good opportunity. For this challenge we're looking for a couple of things.
Firstly, we're looking for one puzzle per category, which you can claim here. If you complete one (have it placed online) you can claim another-- up to three.
Secondly, each crossword must contain a Keyword in its title. There are twenty-five listed below, and you can claim one of those as well. In an ideal circumstance, the chosen word apply to the crossword in some way. If your word is 'Laser' and the title is 'Laser-Focused Hodgepodge' in General, it's not really taking much advantage.
Good luck!

Afraid I jumped in without giving it enough thought Kyle, and on second thoughts would not be able to use the keyword VANQUISH in a worthwhile manner. I'm happy to stay with movies but would like to use FLY instead. Reply #4. Oct 23 25, 6:50 AM |

Kyle, looking at requesting "Cover" for Literature BUT, before I do, am I able to use it as part of a larger word (i.e. undercover) or does it need to be free-standing in the title? If that's OK, I will take it, if not, I will need a re-think of what to do Reply #16. Nov 07 25, 4:26 PM |

Re: "Kyle, looking at requesting "Cover" for Literature BUT, before I do, am I able to use it as part of a larger word (i.e. undercover) or does it need to be free-standing in the title?" Go ahead with your idea. Reply #18. Nov 08 25, 10:53 AM |
