For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I think I have finished, I think I understand what the second instruction is wanting me to do, but do not actually understand the instruction. Given where I end up though reasonably sure I have all but one letter nailed down. A. Real challenge, and a good one. My other half went out just as I was starting a small glass of wine and the crossword. She got back three and a half hours later to find me still cross legged on the floor, the glass untouched and the crossword just about done. That must surely be testament to a challenging and engaging puzzle. Thank you Shark.
Addictively absorbing, with a wonderful succession of PDMs (inter alia). I simply cannot understand how so many essential variables can have been accommodated, or how long the whole thing must have taken to assemble. Any chance of a setter's blog? As someone whose setting efforts have never been more than sporadic and pedestrian I am in awe of masters like Shark. Certainly a contender for POTY.
Fyellin, the second instruction removes the ambiguity that I think you're referring to.

A masterly construction by Shark. I particularly like the way the various instructions had to be used to come up with the final unambiguous solution. I think I spent more time on this one than on any previous puzzle this year. Generally I am not in favour of puzzles where the end-game takes much longer than the initial grid-fill, but that's bound to be a very subjective opinion, and also very dependent on how long it takes the various Ps to D. Thanks, Shark.
