A user can only replace their own events, so I guess you can't use a "state" here...

I read later in the spec that each player only sets their own state.

Quick reminder, the content must be a string, so you'd need to JSON.stringify() the contents here. It might be clearer to show the content as a separate object rather than it appearing to be embedded in an event.

Kinds

What kinds do these events have?

Questions

Personally, I don't know enough about crossword puzzles or your intention here to really understand the spec. Are these multiplayer crosswords? Single player? Is the goal to use nostr as a backing store for a crossword UI? Do I show off my crossword result to people?

Personally, knowing more about all of that would help me to better understand how this works.

For example, if it's a single player exercise, why do I need the intermediate game event? Why not just post my first move in response to a definition? Is one user ever going to do the same crossword multiple times?

Thanks! Yeah the stringify issue makes sense. And I'm trying to replicate the functionality of https://kurson.uber.space/ without having to run a server; i.e .people should be able to start a crossword and then solve it with friends by sharing a link. There's no need to keep track of performance.

@shuesken When you say "solve it with friends", can you elaborate on what that means? How do different users share their solutions? What does the flow look like?
