FORMAT word games

Here is the mail from Murari about the event details:


"Hey,

Here's the rough outline you had asked for.

Firstly, because I don't really like lit questions cropping up in
places they don't belong, I'm trying to make this a lit-free event.
However, in small part because of the rich precedent, and largely
because I can't resist it, there will be trace quantities of lit. So,
to replace the passwords, there is going to be a crossword.

Expect a ~3 hour event, and a slightly longish paper - people will be
pressed for time.

Apart from the crossword, there will be one or two crypts, and 10-12
other questions with wacky names. I haven't made or named any of them
yet, so they are all surprises.

I'm planning on a slightly different format for the crossword. I
haven't thought about the logistic feasibility of this yet, and I will
let you know the exact format once I do (probably a few minutes before
the event).

That's really all I have decided on as of now. Fret not - I shall make
the questions over the weekend and in time for the event."
