Hi Aaron,

How's about hosting a partially started crossword, with say four 
representative answers filled in correctly, such that people get the kind of 
thinking behind your clues.  I know the Araucuria and Custos crosswords from 
the Guardian (showing my age here) had particular styles which took a little 
getting used to.  Consequently one recognised the style and (hopefully) 
enjoyed getting into the particular mind set to solve the puzzle.  Just a 
thought.
