| Apr 8, 2020 at 9:45 | comment | added | sarsaparilla | @Stiv Thanks. Yes indeed it was. That's why the 'you drop now...' sentence was so crookedly formulated :) | |
| Apr 8, 2020 at 9:38 | comment | added | Stiv | @LannyStrack Totally agree - sarsaparilla, it must have been hours of painstaking searching to find names that fitted this so precisely (I was wondering why 'Tokelau' was in there!). A great puzzle - well done! | |

| Apr 8, 2020 at 9:06 | comment | added | Lanny Strack | Wow! So cool! Nice job solving this, everybody. And kudos to the puzzle maker; exceptional design work. (I had to write this, as just clicking on an up arrow doesn't do this justice.) | |

Final answer
|
| Apr 7, 2020 at 20:39 | comment | added | SeanC | if I use the 4th character, using the same left/right, I end up with (h cyhf mreb mreb ns) when I read the remaining 15 in order. I have no idea if this helps at all :( | |
| Apr 7, 2020 at 13:30 | comment | added | Stiv | @BeastlyGerbil I suspect we've both been trying very similar approaches! Your answer popped up while I was writing up... The title has already been used once to get the instruction, but it is likely to be used again somehow, I agree. I've also considered that my 'W' might completely opposite-ly be an 'N' through an error in the puzzle, so I've checked the others out too just in case - still nothing! A fresh pair of eyes needed perhaps... :) | |
| Apr 7, 2020 at 12:54 | comment | added | Beastly Gerbil | I'm wondering if the title is an instruction at some point. Like left letter right letter left letter or something. I've tried it on the 15 doesn't seem to work though. | |
