I'm pretty sure I know what's going on and what to enter. But I can't figure out how to get anything into the second blank on the next-to-last row.

Nice. I went a little overboard on the sister puzzle but answered my own distress call in time.

Yeah, but I don't have a clue yet.

Nice! I got it without any salt. Now, to go back and solve the hard one.

[10] - I guess in almost a year it works out to only about 8 posts a day ... not that bad really. I only average about 2.

Ok, here's a little hint. What led me to the solution method was wondering why the "E" answer only had one space. And all the others are all either 2 or 3. If one of the clues would have been "T", it would have had only one space too.

Does the style of the letters make any difference?

The puzzle title gave it to me.

Yeah, if you're stuck and want a ton of salt, just google the puzzle title

Yeah, I have to vote bad puzzle. This is beyond stretching the good idea of a hypercross.

So, I've got the origin's of the puzzle, google'd it, found the best way to interpret it, can't figure out what goes in the spaces. I'm being dumb tonight, I guess.

[24] I'm completely on the other side of the fence. Brilliant job of thinking outside the box, buggy. When I figured out what you were doing, the light bulb nearly blinded me.

Yup, count me in the "that was clever" camp.

Aha. Found out that you should never over-think your answer. Sometimes it's the most literal thing, or exactly what it should be.

I'm an idiot. It would help if I actually clicked on one of the hypercross squares to give me a starting point. Duh.

Ok wow, that was a FANTASTIC puzzle! One of the best I've ever seen. Excellent work buggy!!!

I agree that this is a bad puzzle... not because it's a bad puzzle, but rather because the Hypercross instructions use the word 'word' and thus there's a contradiction.

yeah, I needed to google the title to figure it out...but once I did that, it wasn't too bad.

Nice to see a new take on the Hypercross.

I appreciate the new idea, but it was too easy even for a puzzle requiring a cheat sheet.
