Does anyone have the answer key to this: https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/making-magic/walk-softly-and-carry-big-acrostic-2004-12-13
I've looked at it a bit, but I think it would be helpful to know which (if any) clues you've gotten.
The ones I've found (or have a decent idea of) thus far are:
- B) I think it's Mirari as that makes the most sense, but could also be Hankyu or Onulet
- E) I want to say tao
- F) The only black instant from 2004 or earlier that gives -1/-1 with 5 characters in its name is Night
- G) Mark Rosewater has a post from 2016 that says BFM inspired split cards, but it's weird that post is from 2016 and the puzzle is from 2004.
- J) I'm fairly sure it's weenie
- K) The only word that comes after splice on cards is onto (Dampen Thought)
- T) I heavily suspect this is flash, but the h in location 149 is throwing me off.

The Magic site looked terrible back then, by the way.

Thanks! I thought it might be out there somewhere but I couldn't find it. Preparing a Magic-themed Christmas scavenger hunt for my kids.
