Had to reveal *checks calculator* 46% of the letters in this in order to finish. Even with autocheck it still took 10m. Extremely impressed by anyone who can solve this legit
ooh wow tuff stuff. really wanted NERVOUS and NINEAM and that sent me on a wild goose chase. had the best kind of a-ha moment as i filled BONG in from crosses. thanks so much for your work with the BAF puzzle pack--great cause and it's been fun seeing all the donations roll in!

This must have been a tough one to fill - impressive! I had JITTERY to start at 1D which threw everything else off for a bit. Thank goodness I know my oat-based moisturizers!

"A ___ is a perfect drink as far as I'm concerned. It's three liquors that I'm not particularly interested in... But put them together with a slice of orange. It works... That first sip is confusing and not particularly pleasant. But man it grows on you." - Anthony Bourdain
