CENTRAL (And, yes, we are all aware that the results are sometimes put up earlier elsewhere, but we play fair here).

FYI, we don’t reveal the answer outright. You can hint at it if you want and it is okay to give possible wrong answers.
8-word Alert: Our comments show up on the homepage sidebar, so prefacing any hint with 8 non-hint words is the best practice.

This is a pretty well-known case. I’ll say 2/3
