    Lol, aren't those Leos (no G)?

    • Drew Kroft 🤓13:26 · 3 months ago

      I think they meant if you'd used that alternative clue, the answer would be in keeping with your theme? But then you'd want to make the top center clue a theme answer and it'd be a whole thing...

      Yeah look as soon as I posted it I realised it was the opposite gimmick, so it's definitely a oof. Fun puzzle!

  Loved it! I feel like some of the newer cat litter on the market basically is just absorbent glitter.

  My first non-meta Crosshare puzzle. Very fun, thanks. Especially enjoyed the clue for 1D

  Perfect title Funny themers (esp. GPS) Was this submitted anywhere?

  • damefox constructor · 2 months ago

    Two places, in fact. Alas, neither of them liked it as much as you all did.

  I enjoyed the theme. Thanks!

  Can you explain the 21A

  21A___ in echo[---]

  clue "___ in echo"? I figured out the answer from MAME

  7D"We Need a Little Christmas" musical[----]

  , but after I finished the puzzle, I tried google searching and couldn't figure out what the answer ("EAS

  21A___ in echo[---]

  ") meant.

    Add a space: "E as in echo." (It's not a great entry, sort of "green paint"-ish, in the sense that you could replace that first letter with anything and claim it's a valid entry, e.g., "B as in Bob," "A as in awesome," etc.)

    • Puzzled 🤓17:27 · 2 months ago

      Thanks for explaining. I think "echo" is at least better than "Bob" or "awesome" since it's part of the NATO phonetic alphabet.
