Before I give the next puzzle just a few words.
As many of you know I have had a long absence from the Mysterious writings board. My PC died which took some time for me to save for a replacement, but also I had to move to my parents home as my father now needs 24/7 care. I'll be buggered if the health service tries to ship him off to some home. Unfortunately that has some implication to the Just for kick hunt. Dont worry they will continue but due to less free time on my hands I aim to post a new hunt at least every month or two.
If you haven't previously taken part in a 'Just for Kicks' hunt PLEASE READ the Introduction and the Rules thread first. ( these appear to have been archived in a sub thread which you should see listed at the top of the Just for Kicks board)
Its still worth reading this again if you have taken part in a previous hunt. The format of these hunts is slightly different to most and to get most enjoyment out of them understanding how they work and are scored will hopefully increase that enjoyment.
PLEASE DO NOT POST COMPLETE SOLVES or solves to stanza's, post hints or ideas by all means, discuss theories, work together if you need to and are stumped.
Would you enjoy a crossword puzzle that had been almost completely finished by someone else before you start?
These hunts for enjoyment of solving a puzzle in a relatively short period of time, and posting solves spoils the enjoyment for others.
These hunts are not super difficult, they will vary in difficulty but it is expected that multiple people should reasonably expect to reach a final solve after a bit of time and effort has been put in.
This hunt is not about just getting the solution, its about solving as many clues as possible and gaining a greater score by submitting solves for both clues and the final answer. That helps eliminate intelligent guesses.
Please look at the Hunt Number 1, SOLUTION and RESULTS thread if you wish to understand the scoring system better and that by submitting just a final answer will not make you the winner.
This hunt might appear to be more difficult than pervious hunts, but honestly its not that more difficult. As I will only be able to post a hunt every month or two I aim to increase the difficulty ever so slightly as you will have slightly longer to solve.
If I get the balance wrong please feel free to let me know by private message,
You have ONE MONTH to submit your solutions to me by private message.
I will post the additional hints if I see that participants are struggling, but honestly this one is not that more difficult than normal.
And with that said on to the next hunt.
