Re: [Palindrome] Congrats, and a note about Hunt-planning security

Who does test-solving to make sure the hunt puzzles work?  If the solvers
actually want to participate in the hunt, they can't see the puzzles, then
it would have to be some of the constructors.  If so, wouldn't we need
some constructors for each puzzle who haven't seen that puzzle being
constructed?
