Will Nediger/anecdotes

• Will is a noted constructor and editor of crossword puzzles. He has contributed to the NYT Crossword many times and runs a blog where he frequently posts puzzles.
• Will is well-known for improving as the difficulty and obscurity of the questions increases, making him a highly sought-after teammate for Chicago Open (which he has won thrice: in 2016, 2017, and 2023, and been the top individual scorer at once: in 2013). The most extreme demonstration of this was when he managed to achieve more than twice the PPG of anyone else at the premier site of the ultra-difficult Fernando Arrabal Tournament of the Absurd, all while playing alongside Seth Teitler (the second overall scorer), Selene Koo, and Sam Bailey.
