Given a list of consonants, how many words can you think of that contain the listed consonants, in order, and include no other consonants?Karen Richards poses this Constant Consonants puzzle a couple Mondays each month in her puzzle blog http://puzzlebits.wordpress.com/. Please visit her blog for full rules and other intriguing puzzles.
I first try to solve Karen's puzzle; then I try to make Word Sudoku puzzles out of a few of those answers. Here's a Qudoku puzzle set supplying letters to spell out three of the longest answers I found for the consonants RL, the puzzle Karen posted Monday, 4/27/2009.
YOU'RE AIL
8x8 Constant Consonant Word Sudoku: RL
Each row, column, 2x4 rectangle and the set of circled letters contains the letters in the anagram exactly once
Copy circled letters to the corresponding numbered cell in the quote grid to spell out four "Constant Consonants" RL words
Solutions in the morning. Please visit Karen Richardson’s puzzle blog http://puzzlebits.wordpress.com/ for the complete Constant Consonants rules, her (undoubtedly many more!) solutions to her puzzle and many other brainteasers, as well.
Thanks,
