Puzzle 216 – “Come and Gone”
puz here / pdf here / solution here
I had a great time this past Sunday doing the online version of the Boswords summer tournament–and I managed to come in second, just behind Dan Schwartz, who posts some great puzzles over on his site. The whole Boswords gang puts on such consistently great events. If you’re solving here and have never given a tournament a try, Boswords is a great place to start, and you can do so right from home. (Tell ’em I sent you. Or something.)
Back here at the blog, the long entries at the middle of this one (32-Across and 39-Across) both point to the title, but the seed here was 64-Across. Favorite clue: gotta be 36-Down.
Happy solving, yall. Hope you enjoy. Comments welcomed, as ever.
Good one. Thanks!
Not a “great one” this time? Whew… sigh… okay, haha… will see what we can do!
Congrats on the great Boswords finish! I’m headed to Lolla in a couple weeks – we’ll see how that goes. Thanks for another really fun puzzle…
One year I’ll get to Lolla in person, but alas, not this time out. Have fun!
41D may be the best bit of trivia from one of your clues yet. Nicely done!
I do love a fun fact…
