Very cool! Great mental exercise to remember the extra letters from the other 3 puzzles as you solve

My exercise was in cropping together screenshots in Microsoft Paint!

Split Personality

Try solving the other 3 puzzles they posted around the same time - it’s a suite

I knew the rank for Lee and Tso (General) but how that relates to 1A and 3D is beyond me.  These puzzles with blind ends definitely do not work for me. :-/

Breaking Up the Band

Haha OK I think you can ignore my comment on your last grid 😂

Get it Together!

Can you explain how this works with the shortened entries in the SE? I think there is a trick that I'm missing 😂

Oh I get it now 👌. For others in the same boat - keep solving Pixlate's next couple of grids

Pick Up the Pieces

Awesome puzzle - some great clues in here! Some favorites were ROB and ATE 😂

Really smooth, and I also enjoyed ROB and ATE

Countdown

WOW. This was very tricky and very fun - great puzzle!

Damn. Toughie, but very interesting and clever.

Really made me think!  I enjoyed it a lot.

Wow - when I first opened this one and saw the clues I said "NOPE" - but I'm glad I gave it a second chance! Very impressive and rewarding to solve :)

Untangle

Mashup

Multipurpose

This is awesome! I think the note really helped clue me in 👍

I had to look for the last two squares.  I get "blankslate", and "snailspace" is clever, but in the other direction... can we do that?  I guess we can.  And you did.  And it worked.  After few moments of shock and protest, I retrospectively thank you.  <grin>

Had EMPTYSLATE at first before realizing that BLANKSLATE sounded much better lol. Note definitely helped!
