- Deepak B 🤓14:13 · 2021-10-10T13:37:42.378ZFun one!
- boharr 2s · 2021-10-10T15:58:31.177ZFun and clever puzzle
- Meg 3s · 2021-10-10T17:38:39.325ZNot the first time symmetry has taken me down the wrong tunnel! Thanks, Will.
- Hilary Parsons 🤓4:25 · 2021-10-10T18:36:08.779ZEnjoyed this one very much.
- CPJohnson 🤓3:19 · 2021-10-10T19:39:35.711ZI got it! Thanks, Will!
- Anita and Steve 🤓3:00 · 2021-10-10T19:45:31.263ZFun one! I like seeing the difficulty rating. Helps set expectations.
- Cindy Heisler 2s · 2021-10-10T20:29:49.926ZI vote for keeping the difficulty rating. Although I get frustrated with myself when it is a 1/10 and I have trouble solving it!!
- MajordomoTom 🤓10:27 · 2021-10-10T21:03:32.250Zbottom's up
- Gutman 10s · 2021-10-10T21:09:24.926Z22D made search for this
- MajordomoTom 🤓10:27 · 2021-10-10T21:06:02.822Zyes, I also vote to keep the difficulty rating, though I thought this was a 3/10 or thereabouts not a 6.
- C64 4s · 2021-10-11T05:54:42.772ZAgreed on both counts.
- Terpagator 4s · 2021-10-10T22:00:28.909ZWow, fantastic meta. Incredible you could find such natural phrases to encode the solution.
- David Higgins 🤓7:05 · 2021-10-11T00:26:34.956ZGreat puzzle!
- auee89 3s · 2021-10-11T13:38:20.107ZFun! I like the difficulty rating, although I thought this 6/10 was easier for me than last week's 1/10 :-).
- Jimbo 4s · 2021-10-12T02:54:06.401ZI also vote to keep the difficulty rating
- bodhipepper 🤓10:00 · 2021-10-12T05:11:14.995ZI like having expectations set with a difficulty rating, but might recommend a simpler Easy / Medium / Hard scale - or even adopting MGWCC "weeks" - as I think a ten point scale is trying to be too precise about something a bit more ineffable. Thanks for the puzzle!
- My first meta solve!!! Thank you for the puzzles and tips on how to learn the logic for these!
- Sfull411 🤓5:08 · 2021-10-13T18:57:15.381ZIt took a while, but I got it! Thank you, Will!
- Laura M 🤓12:33 · 2021-10-14T00:53:01.662ZExcellent, once I stopped overcomplicating it :-)
- Thanks everyone! I don't even need a HOT TODDY with the warm and fuzzy feelings I get from reading all these comments! Cheesy, I know, but I earnestly do appreciate all of your kind words! And it's nice to hear that most folks would prefer to keep the difficulty ratings.
- StartChoppin 🤓8:46 · 2021-10-14T15:04:15.196ZAlthough I'm an old person who remembers them, I've lived long enough in the national-cellphone era that I actually sat there for 10 seconds saying to myself "what the f* is a toll call?" I'll just use 10-10-321 since Larry "Bud" Melman is on their commercials, thankyouverymuch.
- MamaEllen 4s · 2021-10-15T00:00:29.510ZExcellent! Just crunchy enough!
- Byron 🤓11:42 · 2021-10-30T21:10:23.293ZFrustratingly, I gave up on the meta too soon, again. I didn't realize there were so many theme answers.
