Having the Marathon should cancel out the 'tough puzzles' thats been a part of the last two WPCs. I see no point in that round.

Scratch puzzles

I was browsing through some puzzle books in Crosswrord and I saw this book which gave me an idea for one of our rounds.

Basically we can use a scratch & solve silver coating like in this book.

I am thinking that we can use it for creating a relay round, but there are other possibilities as well.

We could have a round 'Over The Years' or something... picking one trademark puzzle from all previous WPCs.

Although this has been done before, it was way back in early 2000s (2004- I think the round was called Anthology)

We can definitely do a recap of the years since then, we dont have access to puzzles from earlier years anyway.
