May 19, 2021 at 18:55 comment added Amoz Probably because the guests are not what to look for, or at least if you're looking for a hint
May 19, 2021 at 18:36 comment added Elpharya Agreed. I'm stuck on how/why some guests aren't able to be found, where some are easily seen (milky way eg).

May 16, 2021 at 14:45 comment added Amoz I suspect the poorly worded/uninspiring clues and dense numbering would make a very unsatisfying crossword.

Apr 22, 2021 at 16:24 comment added Amoz I see your point, no not scrambled, they will look just like the highlighted example or the other one that is rather conspicuous.
Apr 22, 2021 at 16:12 comment added Elpharya Also - will the letters in each word be sequential, or scrambled? for instance, if the l and the k in milky way was swapped, would it still be valid?
Apr 22, 2021 at 14:54 comment added Elpharya Are the number of stars seen by each important to the wordsearch?
