Regarding C4: the incorrect one had "Drop" and (5), now it's "Drops" and (6). So I guess "Drop/Drops" is the def, and the answer could be a noun/verb with "-s" modifier

Or "Drops in" like "visits" (not that that means "parts")
I like that "drops in" and "parts" have a relationship (visiting), and "drops" and "in parts" have a relationship (breaking something). Props for that.
 
someone drops in and then parts, or something drops and is therefore in parts
in can also clue some short words like HIP or CHIC
 
true
It could also be literal letters
 
INxxxS meaning parts... hmm
parts = dies... "indies" doesn't mean drops, does it?

@Sphinx Interesting... I am not sure how to be as polite as possible with the answer to the above question. Personally, I am not offended by either version... But I realise some people may be. If someone wants to correct my estimation of politeness, I don't mind. :)

i had the plural in a crossword once (as well as another synonym for the same thing) and i don't remember anyone complaining, but i suppose better safe than sorry since it kind of works either way

Maybe they could've avoided the problem with these?
The tits, chickadees, and titmice constitute the Paridae, a large family of small passerine birds which occur mainly in the Northern Hemisphere and Africa. Most were formerly classified in the genus Parus. Members of this family are commonly referred to as "tits" throughout much of the English speaking world, but North American species are called either "chickadees" (onomatopoeic, derived from their distinctive "chick-a dee dee dee" alarm call) or "titmice". The name titmouse is recorded from the 14th century, composed of the Old English name for the bird, mase (Proto-Germanic *maison, Dutch mezen...

I don't know if this has been said here but the famous Zodiac Killer's unsolved Cryptogram has finally been solved.
I believe it was in January of this year and the message seems more like a rambling of a mad man than anything else.
 
I want to see, where's the link?

@Anonymus25-ReinstateMonica A simple google search should help you.
 
You mean, it's not posted on Puzzling?\

Q: Tag I cant find: "insider" puzzle

George MenoutisI just finished checking all puzzling tags. I recall a tag that meant that the puzzle involved knowledge about the site itself, and maybe a user, but I didn't see it. Was it deleted? Did I not notice it?

Q: What's that videogame puzzle where several levers change the locks' state on one door?

PastilleI have seen this one a few times in videogames and elsewhere, but I don't remember where. You have to open one door that has several locks on it. You have a bunch of levers that when moved change the state of some of the locks (open/closed), but the catch is that some levers control the same lock...

@mods: would it be possible to make these two synonyms? (synonym -> mother tag) -> meta post & -> meta post
Also a puzzle planned for the FTC was found to have a Big Problem, so the idea has been scrapped :(

Q: a simple paradox

Parkerdaboss216This is probably the simplest paradox out there and it still confuses me, here it is. The sentence below is true. The sentence above is false. I've known about this one for a few years and it has troubled me ever since. Can someone try and find a solution so I can finally rest?

The proposed tag synonymizations look OK to me. No downvotes on either of the meta questions or on their answers proposing the synonymizations. Any last objections or misgivings here?
