Puzzle Notes

Dear friends,

This week's puzzle is constructed by Adam Landau, and edited by the inimitable Karen Lurie. It's called "Garden Spots," and is 3/5 difficulty. Many thanks to Karen for stepping in this week!

From the constructor: "I'm a dad of three, marketer, and amateur bass player living in the Chicago suburbs. At The Puzzle Pit, I publish weekly Metal Monday puzzles, which are inspired by heavy music, but are also balanced enough for non-metalheads to hopefully enjoy, with music references and clues crossing all genres."

Meanwhile, preparations for the AVCX's first-ever puzzle tournament, the AVC X Games, taking place online on January 10, 2027, are heating up. In fact, you'll be able to register next week! Til then ...
Yrs,
Ben and the expanded AVCX crew
