Who writes the puzzles for this magazine?
That'd be me. My name is Foggy Brume, and I'm a member of the National Puzzlers' League (The NPL is not associated with this magazine at all). I've been writing puzzles on an amateur level for almost a decade now, and decided to take the leap into the big time. Puzzles are tested by Lance Nathan.
How do I get in touch with you?
You can e-mail me at editor at pandamagazine.com.
How much is an issue?
Each issue is $4.95.
Why are you charging money?
While I'd love to do nothing but write puzzles all day, I do need to pay bills, eat, and all the rest of it. The price per issue is intended to be nominal, and I think $4.95's a fair price for quality puzzle-making.
Why a panda?
The P&A in the title is short for Puzzles & Answers...I supply the puzzles, you supply the answers. Since this is a charade for panda, I made the panda the logo for the magazine. (Thanks to Joe Cabrera for the panda logo.)
Do you offer subscriptions?
Yes! $24.95 for a full year of 6 issues. That's a saving of (carry the 1, take the square root of pi)...some money!
Are there any prizes?
Each magazine will have an ultimate solution. If you're one of the first ten people to e-mail me a correct ultimate solution, I'll list your name in the next issue and on the website
Will I be able to get answers to the puzzles?
Yes. Answers will be printed in the next issue; they'll also be available as a separate download from the website after the next issue is released.
Sample puzzles? Cough 'em up.
I'm writing occasional sample puzzles for the website. In addition, Intercoastal Altercations IV has puzzles that are closest to the kind P&A will feature. You can also check out The Puzzle Boat for other puzzles in that genre, or any of the past extravaganzas I've conducted. (Check out the links below.)
