Puzzle Notes

Dear friends,

Richard D. Allen's "All-Around Incredible" is 4/5 difficulty. Richard's constructed for Classic before, and always brings it.

A warm welcome to all our new subscribers. This email is going out to about 700 more people than our emails were about one month ago, which is one way of saying that the subscription drive has seen strong results so far. We'll still be pushing hard through the end of the calendar year, but at this point (about halfway through), we're on track.

We also wanted to announce, with much excitement, that AVCX has received a substantial gift specifically in support of the Cryptic feature. One generous solver last week donated $5,000 to the Cryptic for 2025, which combined with other money earned so far ensures that Cryptic will not only run at full speed through 2025, but also that its constructors and editors will be paid a fair rate. A sincere and humble thank you to this supporter. If you would like to make an earmarked gift (or a general one), we invite you to use our tip jar. You can specify in the comments box which feature you would like to specifically support (if any). Tip money this year will go directly to sustaining AVCX in 2025.
Yrs,
Ben and the expanded AVCX crew
