====== Corrigenda for the Enigma -- 2006 ====== ===== January ===== ===== February ===== ===== March ===== **MARCH ERRATA . . . OR LACK THEREOF?** \\ Nobody has brought any errata to my attention for March! This is a first in the history of my editorship. ===== April ===== Apparently all the errata that would have been in March decided to be in April instead. With thanks to Treesong, Wabbit, Philana, Groucho, and Cazique: * R-13 — 10 should be *10, and the first 4 should be 3'1. * 5 — The 5 is +. * 24 — Enumeration should be *9. * 33 — Arguably, the rubric should be GO. . * 38 — ONE = NI2-findable. * 42 — For Edward Lear, substitute Gelett Burgess. * X-4 — Actually an anaquote. I'll give the author with the afternotes next month. ===== May ===== With thanks to Crax, Pebbles, and Kapry Korn: C-1: XLSRLN**G**BGESFR should be XLS RLNGBGESFR. XLSRLNBGESFR should be XLS RLNBGESFR. The last few issue numbers have been all mixed up. It's not rubrical for anything! ===== June ===== With thanks to Crax: X-2 is missing a clue: 15+1 Cirrus clouds with a long slender flowing appearance (5' 5) ===== July ===== Hi all -- With thanks to Newrow, one erratum in July: \\ F-3: In square 1, clue 4 should read "Possibly massless particles." With thanks to Kapry Korn: \\ The piecemeal square is a repeat from June. My apologies! ===== August ===== Some errata, with thanks to Geneal, Loquacious, Paul Levande, Luciver, Aleph, and Philana: 12: Apparently ERR is in at least some 11Cs. 14: WHOLE in the first line should be WHOLEs. Flats #38 and 50 are duplicates. This is not rubrical for anything. X-2: First number in the enumeration should be 6, not 5. One flat in August contains [[/guide/?expand=glossary#tetcnbn|TETCBN]]. Also, the following announcement from was intended for the August issue, but your editor managed to leave it out. **LABOR INTENSIVE** \\ Greetings! At 12:00 noon EST, Monday September 4th, I'll be posting a 12-puzzle 'ganza online at [[http://www.markhalpin.com/laborintensive.html]]. The timing might give you a clue to the theme. There's a (modest) prize for the first person to solve everything. Hope many of you play! See more [[cons:2006:laborintensive]] / 11—My thanks to Paul Levande for pointing out [August]’s erratum, namely, that Bill Cosby has an Ed.D., not a Ph.D. His thesis was apparently on the use of Fat Albert in the classroom! ===== September ===== With thanks to Crax, Philana, Spiel, aleph, Newrow, Paul Levande, Jeffurry, and Wrybosh: * 48: The second *1*1 is not MW usage. * CF-17: "Out of Sight" should be in italics. * C-3: AXPXT'S should be AXPXT'A. * Also, there is an instance of [[/guide/?expand=glossary#tetcnbn|TETCBN]] in this issue too. ===== October ===== With thanks to CipherStomp, Philana, Tinhorn, Panther, Aleph, Hot, Joker, and Wabbit: 1:MARSHMALLOWS should be MARSHMALLOWs. \\ 2:A brain-blip by your editrix led to the wrong version of this flat being printed. The one we wanted to run was this: While hiking through the German Alps, I paused and set my SEASICK down. Some rotten SIX appeared and stole it. Gearless, I returned to town. 52: Not an erratum, but a clarification: there is an apostrophe after the second quotation mark. \\ X-2: The trigram HYO is extraneous. \\ X-4: 17D is not in all NI2s. ===== November ===== Some errata, with thanks to Badir, Philana, Btnirn, and Aleph: 2: The O in the rubric should be green. \\ 11: 3 = findable. \\ 23: This is indeed a PHONIGMATIC REBUS, not a PHONIGMATIC REUBS. This is a typo, not a rubric. \\ 63: TEN = 3 7. Also, Fuldu wishes to apologize for not changing Dyeti's original title for C-7, which he feels was inappropriate in the circumstances. ==== Color Flats in November ==== 2. The O in the rubric is green; the N in the rubric is red. 5. The roughly rectangular area of the rubric between the two horizontal lines (the area in which the C is located) is shaded yellow. 35. The D in ENIGMDTIC REBUS is red. 39. Four sets of letters in each line are red. They are, in order, line by line: forth, a, tain, sian; Geor, aids, this, cus; on, he's, and, ty; Hails, near, U, ci; der, Thus, mi, tion; On, la, co, ra; ters, to, con, tion; And, spark, keen, duc. 45. The top half of the L in the rubric is green; the bottom of the L and all of the Y are red //(Actually, the bottom of the L is orange, not red -- Tahnan)//. 49. The 'ding' in 'recordings' is a sort of blue, but not a pure, prototypical blue; an intuition towards "green" is a good one. 51. In the second stanza, the f in "sefack" and the f in "Cafird " are red. 59. Every character in the title, enumeration, tag, verse and byline is yellow, except for the Es and Is (upper and lower case). C-4. In order, the letters are: redorange/green, green, orange, black, blue/red, red/green, green/black, orange/blue, orange/black, green, orange/green, green/black, red/green, blue/red, green/black, blue/orange, orange, green/red, green/blue, green, green/blue, red/blue, orange/blue, green/black, black/orange, red/blue, green, orange/red, red, black, blue, blue, green, orange/blue, orange/black, green, orange/blue, orange, blue, orange, red/blue, black/green, black/green, blue, green, blue/red, green/blue, blue/red, green/black, green/blue, green, red/green, green/red, red/green, red, green, black/red, black, orange/blue, orange/blue, green, blue/red, green/red, orange/red, orange/red, black, green/blue, green/black, green/red, orange/blue, green/orange, green/black, red/green, red, red/orange, blue, red/black, green/black, orange/blue, orange/black, orange/red, green/red, blue, green/red, blue/red, green/blue. C-6. Each color is that color, i.e., "orange" is orange, "GREEN" is green, "YELLOW" is yellow, "BLUE" is blue, "RED" is red, and "PURPLE" is purple. ===== December ===== With thanks to Wrybosh, Witz, and Pebbles: 26—Reversed //fourth//-letter change.\\ 29—Change "you’re" to "your".\\ 61—The tag should say "//non-MW usage// of NI3 word in reading".\\ In the solution for Oct. C-7, the 10th word should be "scyphi", not "scypti".
