Numbers, Symbols &WordsYour Daily Warmup PuzzlesI n bridge we manipulate puzzles involving numbers,symbols and words and strive for logical solutions (or atleast inspired guesses). In each issue this week we wil lfeature a pair of number/symbol puzzles, an easy one hereon page two, and a harder one on the inside back cover;and, a word puzzle at the bottom of this page. In al l ofthese puzzles, you wi l l be able to solve them withoutguesswork, by logical deductions alone, which is whatwe're al l trying to do at the table.

Today's puzzle is cal led Unruly. We start with a grid ofsquares, some with X or O in them. Your job is to fi l l inthe rest of the grid with an X or O in each cel l , such that:

—There are no three consecutive cel ls horizontal ly orvertical ly with the same symbol . (There wi l l be instancesof three or more consecutive diagonal cel ls with the samesymbol . )

—Each complete row and column contains an equalnumber of Xs and Os.

The easy version is below. Hints, and a more difficul tpuzzle wi l l appear on page 15. Answers wi l l appear intomorrow's Dai ly Bul letin. For more warmups, check outthe word puzzle on page 6.

Word puzzles this week are from an app cal led Unolingo. I t is a crossword without clues! There are exactly26 blanks to fi l l in, and each letter of the alphabet fi l l s one of the blanks. The puzzles are designed so that

only common Engl ish words areused, no centuries-old arcanewords that are found incrosswords. You 'l l do best bylooking for the locations of thehard letters first: QU, X, J . Besure to mark off the letters usedin the checking area beside thegrid to keep track of yourprogress. I t's not as difficu l t asit seems! I did most of these in3-6 minutes.

A l ist of words in the puzzle(in alphabetical order) is onpage 12. I f you need a morel imited hint, ask someone toexamine the word l ist and tel lyou if the l ist contains, forexample, a six-letter wordstarting with D and ending in E.

Unruly HintsIntroductory Puzzle on Page 2Unruly recap: Fi l l in the rest of the Xs and Os

so that there are no horizontal or vertical three-in-a-rows (diagonal is OK), and so that the numberof Xs and Os in each row and column is exactlyequal .Unruly hints: Look for pairs of adjacent Xs or

Os and mark the opposite symbol on both ends.Look for X-blank-X or O-blank-O and mark theopposite symbol in the middle. When there areonly two or three unmarked cel ls in a row orcolumn, count the Xs and Os in the row orcolumn. I f one symbol already has hal f, fi l l in therest with the other. I f the remainder is 1 -1 or 2-1or even 3-1 , often you wi l l be able to see wherethe single must go to prevent a three-in-a-rowfrom forming.

e-mai l : [email protected] welcome news, stories, photos, interesting deals,

and other material for Bridge Near the Capitol, andI ’ l l print as much as I can—from experts,intermediates, and novices al ike. I wi l l be avai lablefor photos of overal l winners in al l strats before theafternoon session and again fol lowing the evening

session. Any win is important enough for a photo:no matter the bracket or strat. I should be avai lableto take photos in the playing area each evening asplay ends and possibly at other times when I am notstapl ing Bul letins or predupl icating boards.

Each edition of Bridge Near the Capitol is postedonl ine at about breakfast time, at the District 1 9 website: d19.org. Game results are posted every eveningby about 1 2:30am at bridgeresults.net (look for“ACBL District 1 9 Regionals And Events”). A thirdsite, imageevent.com/mcbruce wil l contain photostaken of winners, but these depend on avai lable timeand may not appear unti l the end of the week.

Results pages at the Bridge Results site include al lkinds of special features, plus the abi l i ty to add yourphoto and track your resul ts with different partners,and send messages to other members (membershipis free). Al l three sites wi l l have l inks to the others soyou should be able to return to the District pageeasi ly after viewing resul ts, or open the Dai ly Bul letinin a new tab, or switch easy to the photos site andfind your way back.

Delays? Bug me, not d19.org editor Randy Corn :not his faul t. The only 100% way to get the resul tswhen they come out is to attend the tournament!
