CONTEST CLOSED! The "Ultimate Crossword Puzzle" Challenge, (#2)... Think and Win SBD!
Think and Win!
... by helping to solve this wall-sized "Ultimate Crossword Puzzle." I purchased this poster way back in 1994 and it's so old, the company that offered the answers back then (send $1.00 check or money order in a postage-paid postage envelope to... ) HA... doesn't exist anymore. I've worked on it some a long time ago, but for many years it was rolled up and stored in its cardboard tube. Now, I pledge to finish it... but I need some help, so I've launched the "Ultimate Crossword Puzzle" Challenge.
Anyone who can provide the most answers in this displayed section of the puzzle wins!
Here are the Rules:
- Must Upvote the post to win (Follow is NOT required).
- Please provide corresponding puzzle block numbers with your answers in the comments section.
- All answers do not need to be provided all at the same time... take your time, but you must be the first to provide any answer to qualify as a correct answer. (Being the first to provide an answer 'correctly' will "close" that block.)
- Whoever provides the most correct puzzle answers wins the current contest.
- Winner will be rewarded 1/2 of the total post reward (in SBD) at the declared end of the contest ($5.00 SBD max).
- Runner-up will get 100% upvote from me upon posting of winning results (minimum 0.30 Steem Units).
- Contest ends when either A)Winner gains a clear majority of answers or, B) at the end of post earnings period (7th day).
- No Ties... Winner will be decided by being the first to answer (based on timeline).
Ready, set, THINK!....

CONTEST WINNER! - @heimdallr
Results:
@heimdallr - 10 correct answers (majority closes contest).
The answer to 87 across is "Hepburn." The answer to 106 down is "Paint."
@heimdallr is either really good at this or this one was really easy. I guess we need to go up in difficulty or @heimdallr should lose his Thesarus! lol
CONGRATULATIONS to @heimdallr (1.06 SBD sent).
There was no runner-up because the only other player (@doccrypto) with an answer failed to qualify (no upvote). Sorry!
Thanks for playing. Next one WILL be harder!
I'm working on Ultimate Crossword Puzzle Challenge #3 and I promise... it will be a little tougher this time. Watch for it!
