Default WIN $243 OF ELROY\'S MONEY! DETAILS INSIDE!!!!!

So because I like you all so much, I'm going to be creating a cryptic crossword puzzle and letting POG have a crack at solving it. It will be complete sometime soon, likely by labor day.

Why am I telling you this? Because if you have no experience with cryptic crosswords, you probably don't have a chance to win. Now's your chance to get some work in on looking up some tips and tricks to solving them, and get some practice.

For some background info on these types of puzzles, check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptic_crossword

A good place to get some practice in might be http://puzzles.about.com/library/ccwin/blfebcrypt.htm

So why should you care about all of this?

BECAUSE YOU CAN WIN MOBNIES ZOMG!

The first person/team to solve the puzzle gets a choice of prizes! He or she may choose either a.) 50% of me in my next 5 2/180 SNGs on Full Tilt (worth up to 243 american dollars!) or b.) $5 on Full Tilt. The second person/group to finish gets the other prize.

Start looking for a team, or if you're bold (or shortline), try it on your own! Good luck, and feel free to discuss here.
