I entered the solutions in the given grid. I would like to know whether they are seen by others too on their respective machines.

Its blank
Deleteits not seen by others.
DeleteHi CV Sir, having a blank grid is anyway better for solvers who wish to crack the entire crossword.

ReplyDeleteThanks. So I had thought. Just wanted to be sure.
