      Thank you ! :D

      8 down could maybe use a more specific clue! but great puzzle!
      • Saswat Mishra constructor · 2021-05-04T20:03:36.653Z
        PIANO means softly in music notation I believe. I'm not sure what you mean by a more specific clue. But glad you liked the puzzle
        • Anonymous Crossharer 8:27 · 2021-05-04T22:31:08.286Z
          Just meant adding a hint about music wouldve been more obvious
          • Saswat Mishra constructor · 2021-05-05T02:03:34.727Z
            That makes sense. I'll do that next time

              For what it’s worth, I like the clue vague. I’d keep it as is if I were you.

        I really enjoyed solving this! As someone who lives in a Great Lake State, I was stoked to see that come out as the theme :) enjoyed all the cluing. I noticed a few that reference a “disc” and a few that use “soft”, was this purposeful? A mini theme throughout the clues?
        • Saswat Mishra constructor · 2021-05-09T23:02:23.636Z
          More of an accidental mini theme. Wasnt intentional at all .
          • Taylor Johnson 15:18 · 2021-05-10T00:43:25.455Z
            Right on, fun puzzle! I look forward to doing more of yours
