    That was a GREAT puzzle. The last step had me stumped for a while!
    • Hector 8:40 · 2022-02-13T17:08:39.021Z
      Same, same.
    • Meg 2:24 · 2022-02-12T22:21:17.952Z
      Nice final step,

        Very very clever. I needed help. No prize for me.
        • Idriss Z 🤓7:29 · 2022-02-13T04:14:55.331Z
          Could not get the final step for the life of me.

            Clever puzzle - like others pursued a few rabbit holes for the final step before finally getting it.
            • I K Snamhcok 1:13:15 · 2022-02-13T19:00:39.097Z
              Good one! Now that I think about it, though, I needed a slight nudge on the last step, so I’d prefer you NOT include me for the prize drawing. Thanks, Mikey!
              • whimsy 16:23 · 2022-02-13T22:07:25.301Z
                Multiple entries -- third time was the charm for me! Glad I stuck with it! Just dandy!!
                • Abide 3s · 2022-02-15T05:19:05.211Z
