SR: Congrats Larry (@LowdownCryptic). – Your clue is now in our HALL OF FAME. Also Check out the Leaderboard for 2023.
ANNOUNCEMENT: Two of our regular participants (Ganesh Raman and Suyash Roongta) have made a suggestion – Since hosts do not get to participate in the contests, we should award 15 points instead of 10 for the Winner (keeping the other points the same) to compensate for not being able to participate. I would request all participants to leave your opinions through comments on this blog post – A simple Yes or No will also do. We would take a decision on this based on the responses as this would change the Leaderboard.
Yes, I agree with the suggestion
