Ashish says Tyler was working on it Saturday night...so I'll take some of the credit for his come-from-behind victory. :-)Todd Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16965742142399439119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35115061.post-57674781538713510742009-03-03T22:29:00.000-05:002009-03-03T22:29:00.000-05:00@PuzzleGirl: thanks for the photographs - I am in ...@PuzzleGirl: thanks for the photographs - I am in Miami now, and am still on a high after last weekend, but also tired....<BR/>It was great meeting you and your sister, too bad I didn't see the other puzzle relatives, they sound like fun too.<BR/><BR/>@Rick: just post every once in a while and you will be part of this party-group next year!machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06794371617847975218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35115061.post-67857841458284478502009-03-03T20:28:00.000-05:002009-03-03T20:28:00.000-05:00@PuzzleGirlI knew the Parkers were there, but didn...@PuzzleGirl<BR/><BR/>I knew the Parkers were there, but didn't know you. It was my most golden opportunity of the weekend to introduce myself, but I still talked myself out of it (rationalization being, it was almost over by then and it would have been kind of lame). as I said, I'm not much good at introducing myself. <BR/><BR/>I still had fun, met some nice folks who don't visit here AFAIK, and look forward to next time (next year, I'm not so sure, but sometime . . . )treedwellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12634227778469664442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35115061.post-82605403782649665052009-03-03T19:59:00.000-05:002009-03-03T19:59:00.000-05:00I am still riding the high from the weekend. Those...I am still riding the high from the weekend. Those of you who were there know exactly what I'm talking about. It was Too Much Fun!! My pictures from the weekend are <A HREF="http://gallery.me.com/angela.halsted#100097&view=mosaic&sel=2" REL="nofollow">here.</A><BR/><BR/>@Todd G: I'm pretty sure my sister took a picture of Tyler holding your puzzle. I'll see if I can get her to post it somewhere for you.<BR/><BR/>@treedweller: Did you know you were sitting in the same row as the Parkers and me for the finals? It took me a minute to figure out it was you and then when the finals were over, you somehow managed to escape before I could say hi. Next year!<BR/><BR/>@Rick: "Plenty of slop" = "plenty of sleep." And the answer to 18A is actually "play acts." So I think you're just confused.

Even though getting into B was a goal of mine, as was making the top 100 (both met), the tourney will now have to add some social appeal to me for it to be worth the expense. Unless I make it a goal to beat Rex (heh). <BR/><BR/>At the risk of embarrassing myself, I have 2 questions about clues: one from puzzle 3, what does "plenty of slop" mean? what's that a pun of? and from puzzle 8, A clues: 18 across "becomes a new person, say, " shouldn't the answer be "getS smart?" this bothered me the entire final, yet the contestants all got it fast and didn't seem to question it. Am I nuts?Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13068017891181076744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35115061.post-81006528415867155372009-03-03T19:28:00.000-05:002009-03-03T19:28:00.000-05:00I had a great time at the ACPT...and I wasn't even...I had a great time at the ACPT...and I wasn't even there! Ashish was kind enough to distribute hundreds of copies of a puzzle I created. I even got to see a picture of my puzzle <A HREF="http://www.crosswordtournament.com/2009/photos/friday-judges/dscf0017.htm" REL="nofollow">here</A>, with Mr. and Mrs. Parker seated next to it (with Andrea Carla Michaels and Byron Walden rounding out the picture).<BR/><BR/>For those of you not at the ACPT who want to try this puzzle, you can do it on line <A HREF="http://home.earthlink.net/~tagross/xwp/two-timer.html" REL="nofollow">here</A>.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for the report, and congratulations on improving your standing.Todd Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16965742142399439119noreply@blogger.com
