    So, my first time participating here. Are we supposed to message the answer to the person who posted the answer?

    We generally leave clues to the answer as an indication that we have solved. The puzzle maker will understand what you mean and if they don't they can clarify via PM. Your clue will help others still working on the puzzle. You can also post the answer using spoiler tags.

    I tried using the spoiler tag, but the preview didn't show that it worked

    <spoiler> test </spoiler>

    what am I doing wrong?

    Instructions: Press + mark above and in the drop down menu, you will see the spoiler. Click on it and it will ask for a title, ignore it. Then Spoiler will appear on either side and you enter your word in the middle of it. You are done. :banana:

    ah my bad....i knew it was something silly. it was seeing the [ QUOTE ] right there and did not connect it with spoiler tag.


    But in my defense, I think my approach was better.I tested it , saw it didn't work and asked for help.
    What did I not do? deploy it to a software system which controls lives of hundreds of people and see how it goes

    Thank you, I will use it next time.

    Since I am new, I was not sure if i could do a clue( which needs some knowledge of inside jokes and the active community here). But did I manage to get it right?

    you did the right thing. Sokanasanah means destroyer of sadness and he does it by his interesting choice of words. :facepalm: No need to defend yourself. :beer-toast1:
