### Inputs to Puzzles ### Each of the non-meta puzzles in this department take one word as input. This input word changes how the puzzle solves, and therefore instead of a puzzle having a single answer, a puzzle has a single answer for a particular input. When submitting answers you will need to select the input word and provide the appropriate output word (aka answer). ### Rate Limiting ### Guesses are per puzzle, not per input. So if you guess a lot quickly on an input of foo, then you'll be rate-limited for an input of bar as well. ### Function Calls ### Most of the puzzles involve "function calls" to other puzzles; these look like: CLUES(born). For the purposes of solving the puzzle, in this example, the function call should be replaced with the output of the CLUES puzzle when given an input of "born".
