| Jun 18, 2016 at 6:13 | comment | added | BmyGuest | I personally like your question and asking about puzzle-making or solving as a process is absolutely okay on site. However, asking for what are best resources of XY are generally not appreciated on StackExchange (opinion based) so, I'm curious how this question will fare on Puzzling... You might consider switching over to the meta-site though. There is a post about puzzle solving sources. | |
