Subject: Fully Crossed CW Challenge - COMPLETE
Posted by: spanishliz
Date: Jul 29 19
As the Lounge's Anniversary Month nears its end, and by popular demand, it's time for a new crossword challenge!
What we are looking for this time is a dozen "American-style" crosswords. What's that you ask?
A fully-crossed (American-style) crossword is one in which every letter in the completed grid is part of two answers, one Across and one Down. There are no 'unchecked' letters. Here is a recent example.
When constructing such a puzzle, it is important to double and triple check to ensure that every word in the grid has a clue, as words will 'fill in' in one direction as you enter clues in the other.
To keep it interesting, we'll ask for at least six of the puzzles to be in a category other than General.
There's no need to "claim" anything, just get your puzzle(s) online and post them in this thread when they are.
Have fun!
Completed Puzzles (12/12):
1. OK I Can Do This - 1nn1
2. Crossing Words #2 - zorba_scank
*3. Music Box (51) - Pollucci19
4. Double Crossed - Leith90

I just want to say how pleased I have been with the response to this. I hope some of you will construct a few more in this style now that you've had a taste of them :) Thank you all for taking part. Reply #41. Aug 16 19, 11:30 AM |
