Well, if you want to admire some further playfulness with regards to the keyword from 07B, hidden in plain sight, you can’t beat Harry. Check his post #51973 from early November …
Oh my, well well well…
Harry was that intentional?
Cribbage did you get the word from it at the time?
[It was deliberate in response to a rather too broad hint about the key, Harry]
I had my trainers on at the time and ran strait past it! 😉
[As I hoped you all would! Harry]
I thought that I had got the word from 3B at the time, so I asked Harry in a forum post. He rightly blocked it, answered my question and made me laugh all at the same time. It never occurred to me that it was anything to do with 7B, and still did not until I started looking at this discussion thread in the last few days. The Cipher Challenge is already amazing, and these ‘hidden depths’ … we are so lucky to have it. May there be many more than 20 years!
[Thanks, I appreciate that! Always enjoy layering it up. Harry]
