Jan 07, 2008 Hypercross Puzzle

Ooooh, second! Familiarity with the theme certainly helped.

Nice one!

Excellent puzzle!

I didn't realize how much I knew of the theme. I only had to consult a list for three of them.

Long time since I've given 5 stars to a puzzle. Clear clues and an easily researchable theme, for anyone who catches on to the commonality and needs a hint for a clue. Great work, Mogri!

nice

Wow, only had to look up one... but Bert?? ;)

Finally a hypercross I could do without Google!

Nice one.

A couple of stretches there but a good puzzle.

Not bad, finding the theme helped out.

Very nice puzzle!

Nice puzzle. Not too difficult but very enjoyable. Thanks, M.

Thanks for the positive feedback! I can really only claim credit for the image composition as the rest is thanks to my dad, who has gotten himself a Tanga account and has made two or three more Hypercrosses on his own since. Hooray Tanga!

I had a lot of fun putting this together.

that was fun. it took a while for me to get one... and then the theme clicked.

tic tac toe minus tac = ?

[15] ignore the label, focus on the object

[15] You almost have no know the them to get that one and some of the others like bert. Figure out the easy ones, get the theme and then sound the rest out.

the wii clue is apparently pronounced by the minister in the Princess Bride. Mawwaige is what bwings us togever...

nice one - only had to check wikipedia for one of them

I didn't even know that I knew that much about the topic. Great Job!

Knowing the theme made that one a breeze, but the one with Bert makes me cringe.

Took me a while to get the theme. What with [18] and the colloquial 'hitch', I was stuck in a matrimonial jungle! But I was able to screen the answers and find the silver lining.

There were a few stretches (8 and 11), but with such an easy topic, they didn't prove bothersome. good work!

I really liked the elephant clue.

Could someone Tangagram me... The first clue. I figured it out just because it fit. But what's the picture from?

revchewie [26], check the logo in the bottom right hand corner.

probably the first hypercross I did without google.

woo hoo my first puzzle without any salt

Loved it. Got stuck on four though. Kept thinking "stage fright"

Got 'em all, no salt, no research... only 22 hours late! I liked it :)

Nice. Once I figured out the theme, it wasn't too bad. Good job!

I figured out the theme without any salt! Very proud of myself, lol.

took me a bit before the theme dawned on me. And, I love the Bert clue.
