Hi team!There is a March mini challenge posted here for books STARTED after March 14th, 7pm AEDST.
It is a spell-it-out and first step is to solve the crossword puzzle to work out the letters we need to read for.
Anyone interested in solving the crossword? ;)
Go for it Sara! :)Note 8 Down where it says "digit" that means it is a number, not a letter (e.g. 8)
(click for larger image)
Thanks, Karen! I’ll try to solve this. :)
It’s hard! I think I’ve got one figured out! Y’all have a good day, I’m headed to work
Maybe if anyone thinks they figure out a word, message Sara with it as she tries to solve the puzzle?Unfortunately I can’t assist as I have the answers :o
I have three answers right now. I’m not yet sure these are correct, though.Down
4 Pictionary
5 Battleship
9 Olive
Alright, got all of them!Adding them under the spoiler tag here, incase someone wants to still work on this.
(view spoiler)
Therefore, the letters we need for our spell-out are:
A - 17
B - 2
C - 11
D - 3
G - 2
J - 2
L - 5
M - 4
Q - 1
R - 5
U - 3
Y - 2
Number 4 - 1
Gee, you were quick. I was still just thinking about it, lol. Well done.
I think I understand 🤔 but I’m sure I will have questions 😊

Fantastic!
Got one of those crazy reverses covered. :P
Well done with the crossword Apoorv!
Does anyone have a book up their sleeve for the "4" in the mini challenge?
Perfect. Are you able to get to it this month (starting after the 14th! 😉) Sass?
Finished

which wasn't bad, but nothing to write home about.
I have a uni assignment due next week so I'm going to spend today doing that and won't start a book until after 7pm so that my next one can count for the mini challenge ;)
Also, I've added the mini challenge letters in purple to our tracking spreadsheet :)
