                    Whew - fun puzzle after a rough weekend of Metas. It was just crunchy enough for me. Fun solve! - for a while I had LENINTRAILSITANION
                    • MARR71 4s · 2021-09-26T21:15:44.646Z
                      Can't believe I solved this one without a hint! Very fun!

                            Great meta mechanism!
                            • C64 9s · 2021-09-27T04:11:11.177Z
                              I also did the LENIN thing but Will said "do the first thing you mentioned instead" when I asked for help.

                                    The symmetry really helped. Great puzzle!
                                    • DIS 🤓8:16 · 2021-09-28T21:46:32.168Z
                                      Great puzzle! Both steps were quite elegant.

                                            Wow!

                                              I had the first step very quickly, I had the right idea for a second step even more quickly but got stuck for a day or so for not knowing where to go next. I'd say complexity was above average (6/10?) for that ambiguity (unless I'm missing something). Good one overall!
