@All I'm not sure why this lattice is rated so much lower than the other one. I did an experiment and now there is a "HINT" and "CLUES" options. I'd love to know what people think of those.

I was wondering why this is rated so low too, I don't think it is worse than the other in any significant way at all. I like both of the experiments, I think I am going to steal that hint idea.

@sproutcm: The only reason I can think of the lower rating is the right side of the quiz has a few words that are a bit less known than the other side. The quality and cluing of the quiz is just as good as the previous one though.

I was expecting 'zombie' to be a bonus for reanimated corpse?

Never heard of "lase", but I'm glad the etymology is exactly what you'd expect it to be.

@sproutcm people are obviously jealous of your awesomeness and only pray that some of it oozes onto them by giving this quiz a bad rating

LICH, LITH, LATH, and LASE are all pretty rare words, and are much more difficult than the rest of the puzzle(s)

I liked it, I tried typing linen for the first clue and flukily managed to get by that way. My only tiny nitpick is that LACK doesn't necessary mean "Be in need of". I lack a third ear, but certainly do not need one, if you catch my drift. Still an excellent idea for a quiz, I greatly look forward to more!

It seems there is some basic principle of lattices that I just don't grasp. I solved this in the allotted time, but didn't quite know what I was doing. Maybe people would rate it higher if you mentioned that the Maltese crosses signify "this box doesn't get filled in." I kept trying to to figure out how to fill them in, which kept my enjoyment to a minimum. (Unusual for a sproutcm puzzle. There's a reason I only follow one contributor!)

The "reanimated corpse" clue is a little misleading, since a lich, while undead, is in modern gaming and fantasy terminology a spellcaster who voluntarily binds his intellect to his corpse in order to achieve a form of physical immortality. In the more traditional, though obsolete, meaning, a lich is simply a dead body.

I'm a little relieved I'm not the only one who couldn't come up with "lich." Okay, let's face it--I'm very relieved.

"Lash" is above the eye? I think that clue is more accurately answered by "brow". "Nits" are really the eggs of a louse, not the "lice" themselves. Sorry to "nit-pick".

Well, I loved it. Yeah, the last column was a little hard, but it was still fun and new to me. I think the only thing that would make it better, in my opinion, is if it were larger. 5-globes from me!

@WCRoentgen Actually, to "nit-pick" back, the dictionary says specifically that a nit is " the egg of a louse or other parasitic insect; also : the insect itself when young."

too bad "lack" doesn't necessarily mean "in need of." Something lacking is more missing...

I would say you definitely were stretching to fit some words in. Abbreviations are dumb; WoW terminology is irrelevant for everyone who has a life; lack was a stretch. I also recommend expanding it so it's bigger and has many more words cuz those are more fun.

I assume you intended "lith" to be an abbreviation for lithograph. I've never heard that word abbreviated before. I suggest sticking to actual abbreviations if you're going to go there.

The first four columns were a walk in the park. The last column I felt like somebody jumped out of the bushes and murdered me.

@matthewoffner actually if you look in a dictionary, the definition of lack I used is copied directly out of there. Many words in the English language have multiple definitions. As for the words that are on the grid, when ladders loop and still have to follow ladder rules, the words become really constrained. Also as for what is allowed, crosswords and word puzzles always have abbreviations and that one here is a legal dictionary abbreviation.

Good quiz, I definitely needed the clues to begin with. Could have done with a little bit more time though.
