Clear instructions, straightforward method. Should have been a featured puzzle. Great job, hwango!!
However, other than having to look some of them up, there was nothing "hard" about this puzzle. It could have been published as an "easy" just as well.
[3] - Good for you! When I was making it I started with ones that I knew and then looked up some others to fill in the letters I needed. I hoped that would cut down on some of the needed research.
[4] - Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it. The moderator said it was put up as a Hard because it required research. I probably would have put it as Easy if it had been up to me, though, just because it's such a familiar solve method.

Hey all, I almost forgot my puzzle was going up tonight. I'll check TGs now and then for a couple of hours in case anyone has problems with it.

Great puzzle. I'm especially thrilled that I had to look up almost none of these! :)

Fortunately I was able to guess after the first two. Saved a LOT of googling.

I took the direct approach to solving this; although the clue to the answer wasn't so much;)

While I think it's great that the puzzle featured the names involved, the exact name required is debatable in a few cases.
