This was a repost, Guido. They've been merged.

Maybe you did, maybe you did not: learning how to use the search function to check your puzzles before posting will guard you from this.

I supposed you did, having reached the expert rank, but there are a few ropes to learn:
- if you select "match all the words", don't give him too many because if one is missing your search will be fruitless.
- when in doubt, limit yourself to the basic words: here Opel and Rekord, or even Opel, should be enough. Keep in mind that the guy who named the topic may not have been very precise.
- limit your research to the "Solved puzzles" sections, this will keep the number of pages low, and you don't want the other sections anyway.

And don't worry: everyone here made some reposts, and still does on the occasion.
