            @MatthewBarber That’s the one! I wrote the puzzle in a few minutes, so some of the clues were a bit weak. Perhaps a better clue would’ve been something like rot13(pne jnfure’f pbzznaq). In any case, I’ll give you the check mark after a day or so, so stay tuned for that!

              The title likely references this usage of the word: spoiler.

              Yep, @noedne is correct; same goes for the flavortext. BTW there’s a better solution to #5 that I’m thinking of, but the rest of them are correct

              I also considered (G)ubfr (rot13), if that's what you're looking for?

              @MatthewBarber That’s the one! I wrote the puzzle in a few minutes, so some of the clues were a bit weak. Perhaps a better clue would’ve been something like rot13(pne jnfure’f pbzznaq). In any case, I’ll give you the check mark after a day or so, so stay tuned for that!
