That's him! Keep 'em coming, guys; almost got this knocked out.

10 Across - SNES?

8 Down - Morbid?

9 Across - Moors?

3 Down - Pet Sematary (my wife knew this one and changed my answer to 5 Across from Rapping to Tapping)

 

[StudioTan]

Excellent, Maestro! All are correct except 8-Down. It's almost time for a new puzzle!

 

[MattAY]

Maestro is our cheat card! Nice!!

 

[cyberjim2000]

8 Down - Miasma

16 Across - ternary

 

[COMaestro]

Cool. I really wasn't sure about SNES after Pet Sematary because Sematary is spelled incorrectly on purpose by King and it's misspelling is misspelled in the puzzle.

 

[COMaestro]

18 Across - Organ

 

[StudioTan]

Cool. I really wasn't sure about SNES after Pet Sematary because Sematary is spelled incorrectly on purpose by King and it's misspelling is misspelled in the puzzle.

Ahh, I was hoping I wouldn't make a mistake like that haha. Glad it still worked out in the end!

sprite?

 

[COMaestro]

Tan mentioned before that it's a personality trait they share. Nothing is really coming to me. I want to say selfish, greedy or gluttonous, but obviously none of those fit.

After looking at a list of a bunch of words, I'm going to guess Jovial?

 

[StudioTan]

You're on the right track with the adjectives, Maestro.

 

[MattAY]

Come on Maestro you got this!

We need to give him brain food! GET ME SOME SUSHI STAT!!

 

[De-Ting]

I'll take a smoked salmon roll.

 

[COMaestro]

Anyone have any guesses? I'll go with desire but I don't think that's it. It may be time to throw in the towel on this one.

 

[MattAY]

I'm looking at a thesaurus now...but Egoist?

 

[UghRochester]

I need a visual!

 

[COMaestro]

I'm looking at a thesaurus now...but Egoist?

Ooh, that's a good one I didn't consider.

I need a visual!
