📖 How I Solved It
I tackled puzzle #700 on March 31st, and let me tell you, it was a wild ride! The combo clue "Two face cards in a standard deck" had me stumped for a bit. I was thinking of a couple of kings and queens, but I just couldn't zero in on it. I even tried guessing 'KINGQUEEN' at one point - yeah, that didn't work out! Once I thought about poker hands, it finally clicked: KINGJACK! The word ladder was surprisingly smooth, though. I loved bouncing from KING to WING, and then to the playful SACK. It's funny how some clues just jump out at you while others leave you scratching your head. Overall, it was a fun challenge, and I felt pretty accomplished once I solved it.
