Time to see how many people actually read these recaps. Because this site didn't do anything special for April 1st (shame), and I don't feel strongly toward any of these three categories, I am going to do a category poll for puzzle #10 in DPG playoffs. If it's a tie, I'll use random.org to break the tie. Feel free to vote, even if you aren't in the playoffs!
Intro is cut off, but this is the Friday Finals for San Diego Week!
