Kaidoku #74 & Puzzle Pointers

Kaidoku #74 (PDF) | Java applet | JPZ (get Crossword Solver)


Do we really need another Puzzle Pointers page? After all, we’ve already got Will’s and Ephraim’s. Not to mention the uber-convenient CrosswordButler. But I’ve created the new puzzle pointers badge you see above that offers a few advantages:

• It offers direct links to the BEQ and Daily Beast crosswords
• It’s in a nice, readable format where all the day’s puzzles are bunched together
• It’s embeddable to your own home page! It looks great on MyYahoo or iGoogle, and as you can see above, it works on other pages as well.
If you want to put it on your page, visit here. Enjoy!

I really enjoyed Matt’s Kaidoku today. I think you will too. Maybe you should start with a Q-hunt? Happy President’s Day! See you Thursday.

good puzzle, although i didn’t Q-hunt it. my now-standard “identify the vowels” tack worked just fine, once i guessed on the identities of O and E and then took a flier on JAMBOREE. ironically, the other word i used to figure out O and E was ROOKIE, and the K was my last letter in the grid.

TELLTALE has a nice letter combo. it’s almost self-descriptive.
