Hello Watsonians!
Last month, we had some fun with a practice game in anticipation of the annual Treasure Hunt. Participation was good, and I received some nice comments. Want to try another one?
You will find below five questions for the 3rd practice round for TH6:Every Link Rings True . Please do not post any answers here; send answers to treasurehunt@johnhwatsonsociety.com. Answers are due no later than April 11th.
Good luck!
