      What does 3D mean? I wrote EON at first...
      • Mikey G constructor · 2022-12-22T06:53:05.652Z
        That's literally it, haha. Anytime there's a three-letter clue that involves a long stretch of time, the answer is almost always either EON or ERA. Whenever I see that, I always fill in the first E and then wait until later to figure out the other two letters!
        • dplass 3:15 · 2022-12-23T00:01:04.103Z
          Well, ERA isn't necessarily a long time, it's just a "significant" time.

            I'll change it then. Thanks!

              There are the geological periods called eras (which nestle into eons). Those are quite long, by definition, for any reasonable definition of long. And so I think it’s OK.

                  That was a blast -- thanks!

                    Oof! That was a bit of work - but fully solvable. Thanks!
