Across Lite versions of all puzzles will be posted there each Friday afternoon (and e-mailed to group subscribers once they're posted).Alternatively you can solve the puzzle onscreen using the Java applet posted at the bottom of each week's blog post.*****Q: What exactly do I send in to enter the contest?A: Each week's puzzle will contain a sort of puzzle-within-a-puzzle (or "metapuzzle") that you have to figure out once you solve the crossword. The answer to this metapuzzle will be that week's contest answer word, and it is this word (or series of words) you must submit to enter the contest. Be sure to read the instructions that come with each week's puzzle, as they will explain how to arrive at this contest answer word(s).Note: please put the contest answer word(s) in your e-mail's subject line.*****Q: What are the monthly prizes mentioned at the top of the blog?A: Contestants who submit correct answers for all crosswords in a calendar month are eligible to win one of ten MGWCC pen, pencil and notepad sets. Ten winners will be randomly selected at the end of each month from all entrants who correctly sent in all of that month's contest answer words.*****Q: How difficult are these puzzles?A: MGWCC puzzles get more difficult as the month progresses. The first puzzle in a calendar month will be about the level of a Monday New York Times crossword, while the last puzzle in the month is at the level of a Saturday Times (or harder).*****Q: Where and when are a puzzle's answers posted?A: Answers and a full writeup of each puzzle are posted the following Friday here on the blog. But you don't have to wait until Friday -- each Tuesday at 12 noon ET, just as the contest deadline passes, Joon Pahk writes an entertaining summary of the previous Friday's MGWCC at www.crosswordfiend.com.*****Q: I have a question that's not answered here.
