 This is the discussion thread for the Crossfire puzzle. Pertinent information will be collected here in the top post. Admin Edit: The first step shouldn't be too perplexing. Once your pairs are aligned... First Clue:Don't be confused by the obvious connections. Look for a higher order. Second Clue:This confuses many. Join the crowd. Third Clue:Three couples meet at the planetarium. |

Just wanted to check on something: I am assuming that I should be using the Grimms and the War of the Roses, right? Nothing... Twilighty? |

That's what I did as well. I went old school.  |

After completion: I drew a straight line between pairs and circled any intersecting letters. From the letters I got was the phrase: (moderator redacted) Not sure what to make of it. |

Did your phrase seem to have a few left over letters? Mine did and I am not sure whether I missed something or if I should be seeking a deeper meaning... |

No extra letters for me, 23 and it is a key for a future lock. |

I'm struggling on this one pretty bad. I've gotten the phrase, I think, but I'm not sure what to make of it, or how to open the padlock...

The phrase isn't for the nighttime lock. This puzzle require a more cosmic approach. |

So what I've gathered is I've solved the *next* step, but I'm still struggling with the first part of the lock. Go me?  Edit - So I've been staring at this for a while with "cosmic" looping in my head. I feel like the slowest person alive. I've not solved it yet. |

As was pointed out to me Some of the methods of solving these puzzles has recurred in multiple issues. Try going back and trying some old tricks. |

I visually can't see a parallel between the puzzle and the answer. I suspect I was thinking too... astronomically instead of... astrologically. |
