Cross Word Thread (for crosswords, not cross words)

Postby enterprikayak » Fri Feb 18, 2011 6:20 am

So if this is gonna be, like, my new thing, there'd better be a thread to catch all the mess.

Here's a crossword I made of all of our Triaxian Silk usernames. :twisted:

(Well, the 26 of us who seem around most right now...if I left anyone off I'm sorry! Complain, and I'll do another one. {I can't tell if that's an offer or a threat :lol: })

The answers are things like "WARPGIRL" and "SILVERBULLET" and "LINDA". It was so fun to make! :lol: I had to cyber-stalk you all, just a little bit. Elessar's profile still says "Obama '08" so that's clearly not been looked at in 3 years, :lol: And StarWatcher's interests read: "Reading, writing, running, sewing, baking" which I like to picture her doing all at once. :lol:

Here's the answer key, cause you can't Google this bad boy. :badgrin:

Now let's see if I made it too hard! AAAAAAaaaaaaaand GO!

I completed the previous crossword puzzle, with help from Memory Alpha!!! The last space to fill in: "Resident Musketeer"! ARGGHH, but I got it. :)

Thanks ek! Please repost that puzzle in this thread!

Good call. I'll gather the madness together.

And here's the answer key!



Glad you figured it out!!! :) I'm obsessed with crosswords to the point where my family hates me for it, and I cannot believe that I never thought of this delicious melding before of my madnesses. This is a dangerous path I am treading. One day they will find me on the floor, dead from karoshi, yet my glorious masterwork swirling on the lcd above me, a photomanipulated Star-Trek-head painting from the 1500's illuminating a 200 entry crossword puzzle spanning all 10 trek series and 23 movies (I don't plan on dying for a while) with guess-who drabbles tucked in all along the edges. Of course, also: an embedded video montage is playing on repeat to a Traveling Wilbury's song.

:klingon: It will be glorious....

And here I thought the clue for my name would be something with bums... :tpol:
She's got an awfully nice bum!
