(non)Puzzle of the Week

As you may know, whilst these days I publish a solution each week a few days after the puzzle, for a few years this wasn’t the case. From 2019 and earlier, most of the puzzles are missing a solution. If you want, you can help!

The following link drops you much earlier in the puzzle feed, but you can scroll forward and backwards through the hundreds of puzzles:

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to choose a puzzle that doesn’t already have a solution (there are plenty to choose from), and write one. By which I mean, not merely giving the answer, but also an explanation, a way of arriving at the solution, or a rationale for why the answer is what it is. Feel free to use diagrams.

I intend to then take your solution and publish it, and I will of course give you full credit. Send your solution to me at ell.ell@talk21.com

Good luck, and thank you in advance!
