    Nice one!

      nice job on the meta mechanism! How does the answer connect with the theme? I feel like I'm missing something there
      • sus constructor · 2021-11-30T19:24:28.108Z
        It's pretty loosely "two sides". It was selected after the SAD, CARS, SET, and BATS crosses were made, so it's not super coherent.
      • Becky J 🤓8:29 · 2021-12-01T06:56:27.323Z
        This was super neat!
        • Charles Montpetit 🤓1:43 · 2021-12-01T20:37:48.689Z
          As I was solving, I thought “This guy really doesn’t abide by the ‘no dupes’ rule”… and then I realized that this was precisely the point. Cute, but in 29a, you can't really clue SAD as an "emotion", as opposed to sadness (try "Tear drop emoji", maybe?). Also, pity that 72d’s ENS is clued as “? ??” in AcrossLite!

            Neat idea. With no anagrammer I submitted DUBSIDES, which is unverified slang for “Double sides” 😂
