To explain what is happening here. What you need to do is create four, four letter words. 1st represents the first letter of the word, 2nd represents the second letter of the word and so on, this is to help you. There is only one unique solution. This might take longer than 3 minutes so you could refresh it before the time ends. I just want to see whether people like the concept. If its not good, you won’t see another one of these.

I think people will like this. We are constantly looking for original ideas, Got my confetti, just in time. Do not think you needed to give your clue, but you have. Can see you getting grid of the week [yet again!] no jealous, honest. very good, and would like to see others ty

Yes, it works well Simon. I guessed what I had to do anyway but was too lazy to get a piece of paper which would have helped. Hardest part was to keep flitting around the grid for letters and I ran out of time so needed one refresh. Thanks.

Confetti, 34 secs left on the clock. Good fun, thanks.

I got the idea, but too late to find more than one group. Yes, paper would have helped, but I'm in the bath, so it might have got a bit soggy. What would also have helped is if the answers were connected. Like xray, zulu, papa and mike for example.

sorry Simon, I may have muddied the waters for you

Nice idea TY

Great deductive puzz
