“CARE TO READ” CROSSWORD PUZZLE CONTEST NO. 3.
Win Total 150 Whaleshares On Offer.

Welcome to the third edition of "Care To Read" Puzzle Contest! We know all Steemians read a lot. But we want to know how many of you care to read, what you read. Most people just scan the article and put their comment asking or clarifying something which was already answered in the original post. So how about incentivizing a thorough read?

“Care To Read” Crossword Puzzle Contest is designed to make you read some posts and have fun in solving a crossword based on the contents of those posts.

PRIZES

Apart from reading, playing and having some fun, here are some PRIZES on offer:

Winner will be entitled for the first prize of 50 whaleshares.

After the winning entry, all correct entries (maximum up to 10 entries) will be equally distributed the remaining prize pool of 100 whaleshares. All answers should pour in before this post pays out i.e. within 7 days.

No one will be awarded more than 50 whaleshares. Unclaimed prizes will roll-over to next contest.

HOW TO PLAY

1. You will be given some clues in the form of a phrase, question or a word string based on the contents of the posts given below. You need to figure out the answer according to its corresponding post / article or a related word mentioned there.
2. The empty squares of a crossword puzzle have to be filled with one letter each and you need to write a whole word by filling one letter each in succeeding squares.
3. Clues are categorized separately for writing the word Across (Horizontal) and for Down (Vertical).
4. Serial no. of the clue is mentioned in one square of the crossword. You need to begin your answer to that clue from this square (Across or Down according to the clue category).
5. At the end of the clues there is a number in the brackets. This tells you the total number of letters your answer should comprise of.
6. You may either take a printout of this crossword image, and reload it as your answer after completing it or just write down your answers according to the clue number.
7. Write all your answers listed by clue no. (Across as well as Down) in a single message and send it to me over Steemit Chat. Also, don't forget to send your Steemit username along with your answers. DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWERS IN THE COMMENTS HERE. IT WILL DISQUALIFY YOUR ENTRY.
8. The first quickest entry with all-correct answers will be awarded the first prize as mentioned above. Please note that you are not allowed to edit your entry once submitted. The first original submission will count. So solve it as fast as you can and try to be the first to submit your answers to grab the first prize.
9. In case of no correct entries until the post payout time, the first prize will be awarded to the entry with the most correct answers. Rest of the prize will be rolled over to a future contest.
10. Since this contest is still in its infancy, puzzle is fairly easier. I sincerely hope that you will have fun while playing it.
