Puzzle Notes

Hi friends: 

Your editor is also your constructor this week; Ben Tausig brings it with "Spring Fever Meets Spring Training," at 2.5/5 difficulty.

Announcing a couple of nifty new features on our website! Every so often we hear from a solver that they haven't received the puzzle. Are we behind schedule, or is something going on with their email? Now you can simply check our site to see if the weekly puzzle has gone out to subscribers yet. Click here (the permanent URL is ...) any time to see the status of that week's puzzle.

In addition, you can now download any older puzzle from any time that you were a subscriber, and even multiple puzzles at once! So let's say you're going to the beach this summer and want to bulk-download a bunch of puzzles from the winter that you didn't have a chance to get to. Simply go here to download to your heart's content. (The permanent URL for downloading older puzzles is ...)

We hope new features like this make your experience as a subscriber easier and more fulfilling. Just let us know if there are any other specific tools you'd like to see us create for you in the future.

Next week we'll have a special guest puzzle from a young hotshot ... stay tuned.

Right on,

Ben and the AVCX crew [avxwords.com, @AVCXWord]
