Puzzle Notes

Dear subscribers: 

Aimee Lucido is up this week with "Role Play," a 3/5 difficulty puzzle.

Thanks to everyone who entered the "Team 23" bonus puzzle contest, sent out last Thursday. We hope it was fun, whether you competed or not. Bonus puzzles are free for you as a subscriber. We promise to keep them coming, and to keep them inventive as well. 

Congratulations to Doug Peterson, whose submission had the most correct names. No one was perfect, but Doug came closest. He wins a free year of AVCX subscription time. By the way, Deb's section was the most guessable, with around 30% of you identifying her area correctly. Byron and Zoe were also pretty identifiable. You had more trouble spotting Aimee and Matt Jones.

With a little bit of spoiler space, the answers to the bonus puzzle by colored section are below:
