    I really enjoyed this one! I tried every letter in the alphabet for the center square and couldn't figure out why it wasn't C - had to reveal to realize I had a typo elsewhere 🤦

      Love it when you see a grid that breaks the rules and then you learn there's a creative reason for it. For the center I had a similar experience to Mike. I was convinced it was going to be some complex rebus/meta answer but turned out I just made a mistake somewhere else.

        Reading from top to bottom, I spent a bit of time trying to figure out what SO-AB-LU-RO-TE-ZE meant... until I finally realized that of course a phrase about a ZERO had to be arranged in a circle!
        • el 5:53 · 2021-12-04T07:06:54.009Z
          ahhhh should've tried c for the middle square. super fun though!

            Oh I misunderstood ... I thought "ABSOLUTEZERO" was the meta prompt, not the answer!
