If it exists, there is Christmas of it. People often create and complete crosswords during the build up towards Christmas.

Question, what happens if multiple people answer it all correctly? Does only one person get first place reward or does it go to everyone that completes it correctly?
 
I'm pretty confident with my answers excluding #6 >.>

It'll go to everyone. I made some of these quite hard, I think, so I think it is unlikely that a lot of people will get 100%. Some, I'm sure, but not everyone.

If I'm wrong, then great. It'll be Christmas time on the house!
 
2, 4, and 6 down are the only ones i'm not sure of
 
some of those were just cruel :ahmed: for some reason 10 was the trickiest :wacky: also, for a few of them i was only able to answer because my friend always tweets about that particular game :lew:



but i think i nailed it :pooley:


very fun. just like your forum games always are :lew:
 
Bah, I thought I'd be able to fill this one out completely but you got me on a few of these. I feel like they're the ones I should've known too, while I knew some of the more obscure ones instantly :P

Nicely done!
 
Muhahahahahahahha!

I'm glad that some people have been struggling with this. Christmas is supposed to be a time of mischief, right? :mogrinch:


If anyone else wants to give this a shot, you still have time!
 
11 is the only one i'm not confident in
 
Results!

I knew I should have gotten the ones I blanked on.

And I was thinking of Icicle for that inn one but because of what I had before nothing made sense, well would of had 14 but oh well.
