Made a few updates to this quiz, which will explain why some older comments below no longer make sense.

Somebody got them all?! I enjoyed this one in particular because, even though you had to start with "C", there was more than one possible path to get em all. :)

Great! Not too sure about 'half of K', after seeing the answer I assumed you mean the 'right' half and not half of 2 like I thought. What about calling it 'headless K' or something like that?

Yes, the capital letter in these clues always refers to the complete answer associated with that letter (unless otherwise specified). So 'half of K' means half of 'K2', not half of 2.

Fun! Except, unless my shovel repels dirt, I don't think my wiper repels rain.

Because as verbs they mean the same thing.

The first quiz was good. The second was less good. This one just fails. Ape = copy? Maybe to people from the 1800s? I couldn't say. I've spent too much time in the 21st Century.

Since you can't get A, you can't get P, so you can't get J, so you can't get U or Z.

"(Half of K) x 24". The answer to K was "K2". The only number in K2 is 2, so "Half of K" = 1. How does 1 x 24 = 48?

I mean, there's clever and then there's just needlessly hard. Needlessly hard isn't fun.

Ape's not an archaism. Not yet, anyway.

Really like this series, and this one's my favorite so far. Maybe I was undercaffeinated when I took it, but it seems more self-referential and involved than the others, so more challenging.
