- FrankieHeck 🤓12:49 · 2022-01-24T14:10:18.877ZFun meta!
- DIS 🤓6:12 · 2022-01-24T15:36:15.751ZWell done!
- Nice! Ambiguous enough at the outset to send me in a few different directions, but elegant crisp solution in the end. Enjoyed it!
- Hector 🤓7:32 · 2022-01-24T17:00:19.736ZReally enjoyed this. Thank you!
- whimsy 13:21 · 2022-01-24T18:38:49.896ZDelightful!
- Laura M 🤓1:09 · 2022-01-24T22:17:48.750ZGood one! I agree with the week two assessment; it would also fit right in as a WSJCC. (Definitely took me much longer than a minute to solve the grid, I didn't see the Crosshare version right away so did the .puz first.)
- Richard 🤓8:35 · 2022-01-25T23:50:28.501ZConfirmed. Kind of a guess for me.
- Glad you solved it, Richard. Hopefully my explanation later this week will make sense to you.
- bodhipepper 12:05 · 2022-01-31T18:30:50.388ZHi Rick, apologies if this should be obvious, but can you point me to where the explanation gets posted?
- Great meta! On a par with some of the best!
- Dow Jones 4s · 2022-01-26T18:48:04.176ZGood job, Rick. This was a doable grid (except for "visemes"). Very smooth. Thanks for the fun.
- Thanks Dow. Glad you enjoyed it. Sometimes constructors paint themselves into corners...
- Carolyn 3s · 2022-01-26T18:43:54.982ZWonderful puzzle! Thanks so much.
- MamaEllen 2s · 2022-01-26T19:35:48.468ZExcellent!
- woozy 3s · 2022-01-26T20:24:48.909ZWould have helped if I had ever heard of "New Edition" .... or if I had ever heard of "Pennsylvania" (I mean, really, it's tucked away between Michigan and New Mexico like that.....)
- Thank you woozy. I had to try to make it a little challenging for you!
- Cindy Heisler 2s · 2022-01-29T13:11:33.314ZGreat puzzle, Rick. Looking forward to your next one!
- Thanks Cindy. Should have another one out sometime next month.
