They ring true.<br />I shall take geofan's suggestions about my hints to heart. He is correct -- my Schpuzzle hints were really non-hints. (I always have struggled giving hints, here and over on Blaine's blog. I usually labor over my hints, but without great results. And, geofan hit the nail on the head regarding my inconsistency in the degree of "blatancy" in my hinting... it is scattershot and haphazard to be sure.<br />As for the "round room" riff-off," point well-taken. There will, alas, be three more such riff-offs on tomorrow's Puzzleria! The second one, ENTREE #2, is relatively elementary (albeit a bit tedious), and I have just now gone in and tweaked #1 and #3 to make them a tad less baffling.<br /><em>(Regarding NPR's "circular room" two-week challenge: Again, I agree with geofan. Even after the deadline (when everyone reveals their answers to Will's Shortz's challenge on <a href="https://puzzles.blainesville.com/" rel="nofollow">Blaine's blog</a>, we are still not certain of the answer. This is very unusual. Usually there is some consensus by the time Thursday rolls around. My money is on the answer Blaine, an others, suggested: M + out + H .)<br />On the other hand, Lee Zion's 2-week NPR sparked lots of talk and traffic over on Blainesville, so in that regard it was perhaps a sucessful puzzle.</em><br /><br />LegoWhoLearnedThatAFriendOfHisUpAtTheLakeActuallyKindOfKnowsLeeZionBecauseSheWasInACreativeWritingClassWithHimInSouthernMinnesotaAFewYearsBacklegolambdahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18081014756741740081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3930236368587920355.post-57674120201817197002019-09-05T05:08:15.367-07:002019-09-05T05:08:15.367-07:00I did think that the "round room" riffof...I did think that the "round room" riffoffs bordered on the unfair, but then the original was yet worse in this regard. All three allowed for too many false "solutions", and the "correct" solution did not really stand out from any of other candidate solutions. In this regard, See the raft of comments on Blaine's blog to the NPR puzzle.<br /><br />Correction to last blog: "anagrammed" should have read "backwards" (as to RAMS in ASMARA).<br /><br />Looking forward to this week's puzzles - please to not tone them down from this week's experience!<br /><br />geofangeofanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10355377703382263396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3930236368587920355.post-83891030925376761292019-09-05T04:56:24.583-07:002019-09-05T04:56:24.583-07:00Lego, thanks for the compliment on my not-so-worth...Lego, thanks for the compliment on my not-so-worthy effort.<br /><br />In the Schpuzzle, I had even noted ROSE (as the word, not the person) and came close to OTT but missed him. Also I noted that RAMS was contained (anagrammed) in ASMARA. So tried a football tactic (knowing that you are a fan) without success.<br /><br />But a suggestion: IMHO, the hints were useless. It was clear in the first hint that the states shared a quality with the cities/countries. Thus, the second hint was worthless. A better first hint might have been "Athletes in [named states]" (which would still leave out the Halls of Fame property). Second hint could then be "Cooperstown, et al.) or something similar. This sounds rather like a blatant hint, but not as blatant as those you have previously given in earlier weeks.<br /><br />My two 12.5-cent parts of old Spanish coins.<br />geofangeofanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10355377703382263396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3930236368587920355.post-68326963152286659642019-09-05T02:14:32.886-07:002019-09-05T02:14:32.886-07:00Well, LegoFair, I think WE might all say rather th...Well, LegoFair, I think WE might all say rather that we did equally badly!

Your only hope was to latch onto (Mel) OTTawa or (Yogi) canBERRA, and perhaps Muhammed mALI. The (Pete) ROSEau hint might have helped, but probably not before you realized the Hall of Fame context.<br />Your efforts regarding "ANGOLA, INDIANA; BRUSSELS, WI; COPENHAGEN, NY; KINGSTON, NY; MALI (= LIMA), OH; ROSEAU, MN" were quite admirable. So was geofan's observation that "the names in CAPS, when read aloud, each contain at least one letter that says its name."<br />All in all, all did well with a darn tough week of puzzles. <br /><br />LegoWhoShallAttemptToBeMoreFairFromNowOnlegolambdahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18081014756741740081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3930236368587920355.post-68668920160165648752019-09-04T21:58:16.398-07:002019-09-04T21:58:16.398-07:00There was clearly absolutely NO HOPE on my ever ge...There was clearly absolutely NO HOPE on my ever getting the Schpuzzle this week.

Have you called your internet provider, to find out what the problem is?<br /><br />I did solve all four Conundrums by last evening, too, so knew that the 7/10 applied to the character name, but thanks anyway!ViolinTeddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11162884875089825084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3930236368587920355.post-22878421334801866532019-08-31T18:43:44.980-07:002019-08-31T18:43:44.980-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.ViolinTeddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11162884875089825084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3930236368587920355.post-54208856876045738412019-08-31T12:05:19.475-07:002019-08-31T12:05:19.475-07:00Could the name be also Portuguese or Irish?

I went to a generous neighbor's house.
