There are very few crossword puzzles on TL. Here is one that I made... I wasn't able to post it due to that little milestone posting freeze recently :p

If you are not familiar with the tl community of the past few years you will not be able to get some of them.

Hm, I guess the most logical thing to do would be to post, IN SPOILERS, your solutions. Alternately, you can just print it out and have fun on your own. I can post the solutions at a later time if you guys don't get it.

Ideally I'd have a really good crossword where there is very little dead space but from what I can tell it's really difficult to make something like that... you need a very large pool of words so that you can pick and choose the ones that work together well. I just went ahead and plugged this into a free crossword puzzle generator.

Without further ado:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/23621890/teamliquid crossword 1b.pdf

There might be a few minor inaccuracies in the clues... I didn't research this or anything.

POST SOLUTIONS IN SPOILERS

There are no repeats... one answer per one clue.

As much as I want to I don't think it would be a good idea... part of doing a crossword is to figure out later if your earlier answers were right or not :p

4 Down = Physician
8 Across = MyLostTemple
27 Down = Cow
27 Across = Chill

Makes sense now, cause I kept trying to think of someone that started with a B for 27 across as I was convinced that Bob was 27 down.


Although I'm not entirely sure on 30 down. Just the first person that came to mind when I filled it out.
