I tried telling a short story in a previous puzzle; this one just goes for a wild headline. Is it based on a true news item? Probably not, but this year isn’t over yet…
15?
I’m going to chillax a little and post two crosswords a week, a Mikeystyle and a me-style. But I might try to place more puzzles elsewhere. We’ll see. Anyway, here’s this week’s puzzle. The big fifteeners were stolen directly from the Crosscord’s #fifteens-channel, but come on, someone had to!
Everything changed (Mikeystyle #9)
If you know what this puzzle is about, it shouldn’t be too hard; if you don’t know what this puzzle is about, you should probably head over to Netflix or something first.
(Unrelatedly, if you don’t know the song in 2-Down, well, it’s great (also this will spoil the clue).)
Belles-lettres
What a weird-looking grid! Why are there so many unchecked squares?
Pentadecaphilia
My new puzzle is in another castle. Or rather, it’s over at Paolo Pasco’s site! It’s a companion piece to the puzzle that Ada Nicolle hosted a little while ago, as both are playing with a similar crossword convention, inspired by a certain channel on the Crosscord server. It’s a tremendous honour to be hosted by Paolo, and so yeah, go check out the rest of the site once you’re there, in the unlikely case that you haven’t already.
Will Mikey be made to solve the puzzle on my stream this morning? Oh, probably…
