...Oh yeah, I posted a "Mixed Doubles" puzzle not too long ago. I should probably put the people who have solved that one here:
- Lynn Sweeney ****
- Eric Maddy ****
- Grant Fikes ****
- Chris Hendricks ****
- Sam Levitin ****
- YYW ****
- Giovanni Pagano ****
- Mom ****
- Debbie Benford ****
Now just click on "Read more" below for the answers!
And here are all the correct number combinations:
ACROSS: 1/15, 2/19, 3/11, 4/21, 5/7, 7/5, 8/9, 9/8, 10/13, 11/3, 12/20, 13/10, 14/17, 15/1, 16/18, 17/14, 18/16, 19/2, 20/12, 21/4
DOWN: 1/17, 2/20, 3/10, 4/15, 5/23, 6/9, 7/19, 8/16, 9/6, 10/3, 11/22, 12/18, 14/21, 15/4, 16/8, 17/1, 18/12, 19/7, 20/2, 21/14, 22/11, 23/5
The two leftover clues are 6-Across and 13-Down, and the answer to those clues (which you can get by scrambling the letters in the pink squares) is CHECKERED: this puzzle's FINAL ANSWER!
Solver Giovanni Pagano said "I found the extra clues a bit early, but I solved the rest with no lookups. After I was checking out the APOCALYPSE clue, I learned that if you replaced "film" with "video game", you could get another conceivable answer (ARMAGEDDON). What is it with the late 90s and the end of the world?" [The Y2K bug and the numerically significant transition from 1999 to 2000, perhaps?]
