    Fun solve, thank you!
    (Is this a themeless or am I missing something?)
    • Allan Long constructor · 2025-04-29T01:20:56.760Z
      I think this one is well and truly themeless. I'll add the tag!

      Good clueing but I’m also confused by the title.
      • Allan Long constructor · 2025-04-29T14:39:50.535Z
        I've been experimenting with titling puzzles using clues. I like it a bit more than untitled or just the date, and sometimes it's hard to come up with a meaningful title without spoilers.
        • Moose Dixon 21:52 · 2025-04-29T19:29:30.034Z
          Titling is the hardest part for me.
          • Allan Long constructor · 2025-05-06T00:19:34.308Z
            Same, which is exactly why I like using a clue as the title. Join me and let's make it a norm !
            It's a fun bit of puzzle personality that limits your decision space in (for me) a helpful way.
