P&A #32: A Call To Arms

Last issue, with a smaller team (split-squad?), we had it solved by the weekend...and didn't make the top ten. Given we hit the top ten back in issue #30, it's time to get back in there and show some mettle.

Issue 32 releases at 7am PT on Saturday, May 14, 2011. Sound off if you're in: We already have Mr. Customer, and Jason (sans Argonauts), but could use some other reinforcements...

(Link to P&A magazine is here.)

Part of Jim Tressel's punishment should be forced participation in P&A #32.

I don't know, Mr. C. Tressel might figure out the puzzle answer and then wait six months to tell us he knew. While continuing to play, of course.

That would not be in the spirit of what the kids are calling "a culture of compliance"

I can mayhaps take part, but I'm not sure yet.

Jason said...

Oh, I'll have the Argonauts with me. Of course, the Argonauts in this case are the bargoyles that get their drunk on before noon on a Saturday.

I admit, they are not much help in a puzzle contest. They can more than hold their own in drinking and/or cursing contents, though.

I'm in, but I don't remember how I participate. Do I need an online subscription or something?

Steve Sax said...

Hey Loney Fan, we could use you.

all you have to do is go to the website and then set up an account and buy the issue when it comes out ($4.95, I think). Then there are two sections, the warm-up questions, and the "puzzlehunt" part. If you want to save paper, just print out the puzzlehunt part.

We'll set up a solving thread here, which will be a running thread until the meta puzzle is solved.

Okay, I'm in.
