It is March and the lovely #EnigMarch people have challenged puzzle designers to write a puzzle inspired by today's word: "dog".
Dogs are the best hotel guests. If you try to give dog-commands to human hotel guests, it will go poorly. Match the following, then note down the circled letters. They should spell something appropriate.
| Lie down! | ◯ |
| Fetch! | ◯ |
| Drink! | ◯ |
| Speak! | ◯ |
A human gets it wrong:
- Cuts in liⓃe
- Gets drunk and breⒶks furniture
- Has noisⓎ fight with traveling companion
- Ignores cⒽeckout time
- Leaves "Do not DisⓉurb" sign up when checking out
- Runs by the pⓄol
- Smokes in bed and setⓈ fire to blankets
- SⓉeals towels
This puzzle is based on a sign at San Francisco's Cartwright Hotel that went viral ten years ago, the first non-disturbing thing that came up when searching the Epstein files for "dog."
