Like so many others around the world, the National Puzzlers’ League is saddened and angered by the events of recent weeks. Not just for deaths of the names we know, like George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Tony McDade, and Atatiana Jefferson, but for the names we don’t, and for the injustices in our nation that allowed their deaths. Black livesmatter.
The NPL Board is creating a working group to investigate what concrete steps we can take to 1) make our space more welcome to a more diverse audience and 2) grow and create a more diverse membership. Read the complete statement here .ABOUT THE LEAGUE
_The National Puzzlers' League_ (the NPL), founded in 1883, is the world's oldest puzzlers organization. The native puzzle type of the NPL is the flat, a versified puzzle involving wordplay, but League members enjoy many other types of puzzles. If you enjoy wordplay such as palindromes, cryptograms, crossword puzzles, cryptic crosswords, anagrams, or discovering the word SCHOOLED has the letters in the words SHOE and COLD perfectly interlaced ... you'll probably find it in our monthly publication,_The ENIGMA_.

Most members of the NPL use a nom (short for _nom de plume_) instead of their name. Noms have a long tradition in puzzle clubs, predating even the League itself. Symbolically, noms allow all puzzlers to meet as equals, free of the titles and social distinctions that the outside world may demand, and are the only introduction needed to NPL membersall over the world.
