Here's a puzzle involving numbers and letters. Each # symbol represents one of the numbers listed below. Each capitalized letter represents a word beginning with that letter.

For example: # L of the EA could be "26 Letters of the English Alphabet".

1 … 3 … 6 … 6 … 8 … 12 … 12 … 18 … 21 … 29 … 54 … 88 … 90 … 200

= 1. # H on a GC

= 2. # S of the Z

= 3. # C in a D with J

= 4. # D in F in a LY

= 5. # D in a RA

= 6. # D on a D

= 7. # W on a U

= 8. # BM, SHTR

= 9. # K on a P

= 10. # S on a SS

= 11. # D for PG in M

= 12. # B on a TK

= 13. # WS on the AF

= 14. # S on the AF

Here are some beginning clues.

The 1-digit numbers belong to clues 7, 8, 10, 13 and 14.

The 2-digit numbers less than 50 belong to clues 1, 2, 4, 6 and 12.

The numbers greater than 50 belong to clues 3, 5, 9 and 11.


luck

That's the one, flotsam.

I'd clicked the wrong button and 'posted' instead of 'previewed'. I've since added some early clues (for those who might like some).

Cheers! puppy

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.

A perfect three-point finish. bravo

Thanks, everyone. I'd augmented a couple things from another puzzle, where each clue had provided its number. I was curious to see how it would go with the numbers scrambled. But for the garden's brilliance, I could see the sun. cool
