I believe it's a numerical puzzle this week, so the normal wording/guidance here won't apply.

Help with clues can be sought, help with the theme can be sought. The 'help' should be a nudge, a pointer in the right direction - and definitely not anything that would spoil the enjoyment of other solvers.

The Listener is a unique puzzle and should be treated with respect.

Hmm..... When I look online, I'm getting "403: Forbidden. Looks like you're not meant to be here! Please use the back button in your browser".

I pay monthly for The Times Puzzle Club and have had nothing from them to say that anything's changed. Both of The Times' Helplines disconnect after one ring. Anyone else having a problem?

Please ignore that post. I finally got through to their Customer Services who sorted out my problem.

My immediate worry is that the first die I picked up at home has a different configuration to IOA picture. Mine has 4 spots where his has 3. I assume we have to use his design?

I'm just assuming that you have two opposites in equivalent cells for now. But it may turn out you have to assume his exact dice, we shall see

I would assume we use the dice shown as otherwise why would it be shown. If you use a different dice then the relationships between front right and top will be different

I get that often in the Times CC. I just go to the main page, log in, then scroll down to the very bottom of the page and click on the Club link.

This seems very tricky. Have a few bits worked out but now hit a wall

Quite agree, SH. I've got the bottom row in each grid, but otherwise there seems too little linkage between the grids to do much more. I'll probably give up soon.
