    Awesome puzzle! WAVE18AThe Queen's is all in the wrist[----] was one of the last I figured out but it seems so obvious in retrospect 😂
    • Sommersmith constructor · 2021-09-17T10:00:05.200Z
      Thanks! I think that's the best kind of clue, so I take it as a compliment :D

        Same here!

        Fun, I got more than I thought I would! The square I got wrong was one I thought I knew (not Alan Menkan...)

              NE corner was tough but very clean fill!
              • Sommersmith constructor · 2021-09-24T00:27:47.711Z
                Yeah that corner seems to have caused a little trouble for quite a few people! Thanks for the compliment :)

                  after all your minis, I was kicking myself at going over a minute... I'm pavlov conditioned to see "sommersmith" and think "SPEEDRUN" lol loved it. This was an accomplishment to get so much relevant content (and acceptable fill) in such a small package Also some great cluing too
                  • Sommersmith constructor · 2021-09-24T00:27:16.111Z
                    Thank you, I had a lot of fun constructing this one so I'm really glad it was fun to solve too!
