Arizona's $1B ESA voucher program has had zero accountability for three years — fraud, unsafe schools, and public money spent on non-educational items. A ballot measure to fix it needs your support.

#azed #crossword #crypticcrossword

The azed crossword is known for being similar to The Listener in terms of its complexity and wide-ranging vocabulary: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azed

But the most recent (2750, "Mixed Foursomes): https://uploads.guim.co.uk/2025/03/01/AZ_2750_(02nd_March).pdf -- has some of the most bizarre preamble instructions ever:

Clues are of four types:

1 Normal Cryptic

2 Letters Latent

From the answer to each clue the solver must omit one letter wherever it occurs (sometimes more than once) before entry in the diagram. Definitions in the clues refer to the full unmutilated answers: subsidiary indications, such as anagrams etc, refer to the mutilated forms to be entered in the diagram. The nine letters omitted, taken in clue order, spell out an appropriate two-word compound.

3 Misprints

Each clue contains a misprint of one letter, always occurring in the definition part. The misprinted letters (not the misprints themselves), when taken in clue order, spell out the same two-word compound.

4 Definition and Letter Mixture

Each clue contains a definition of the answer and a hidden mixture of its letters plus one additional letter, beginning at the beginning or ending at the end of a word in
the clue. The additional letters, taken in clue order, again spell out the same two-word compound.

Each group of four clues (except the group containing the asterisked one-word definition at 14 Down) contains one of
each of the clue types. Solvers must determine which is which. Numbers in brackets throughout indicate the length of unmutilated answers.

Good luck everyone. You need a PhD just to understand the blasted instructions! ;)
