100%, it's an honor to join this incredible group ❤️
It's hard to think of another crossword with such a meteoric rise as the New Yorker. They started in 2018 with one puzzle per week and five constructors, now running three puzzles per week with twice as many constructors and an editor. (Congrats

Bumping this! Thanks to Ben, all the constructors, and the AVCX team for making this puzzle so special~ 🥰❤️
This week is the AVCX's once-annual pitch for tips, if you can (and we certainly understand that not everyone can). 80% goes to constructors, 10% to the editor, 10% to the company. It's meaningful for the people who do the good work.

Survey time! Please let us know how AVCX can best serve you (cryptics!)
Thanks to everyone who's already responded! 🥰
I'm loving the beautiful, honest, and funny answers to the last question, esp. the one written as a cryptic clue
Thrilling news for cryptic fans/potential cryptic fans. The AVCX is thinking about starting a new cryptic service, edited by
@fheaney
But we're trying to figure out: would enough people subscribe? So we made this quick survey where you can help us know:
