Meta Prompt
The answer to the meta is a three-word phrase
This was one of those night-time meta ideas that pop into your head while you are supposed to be sleeping. While it's not like my usual metas, I think you will still enjoy it. The answer to the meta is a three-word phrase. Answer and explanation: https://www.xword-muggles.com/viewtopic.php?p=102224#p102224
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here: https://www.ephesusscroll.com/about/interest4.html. US$10 gives you access to 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game. You won't quite know what to expect: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, sometimes all of those, and sometimes none! One thing is for sure, these are some of the more creative metas my brain has been able to come up with. And there's more: this time there's a mega-meta!

    Fun, Ben. I've always heard the phrase "on the improvement", but I knew what you wanted.
    • benchen71 constructor · 2022-08-03T06:54:57.698Z
      We Aussies are known for shortening everything!
    • SJMcK 🤓3:27 · 2022-08-03T06:48:59.996Z
      Not a phrase I’ve ever heard. Seems to be used in Australia and Great Britain.
      • benchen71 constructor · 2022-08-03T09:26:19.475Z
        Hee hee... that's what you get with benchen71 metas: Australian culture and jargon!
      • boharr 3s · 2022-08-03T12:22:44.236Z
        You people say this?
        • benchen71 constructor · 2022-08-03T22:14:58.630Z
          We do.
        • Ergcat 3:15 · 2022-08-03T12:24:56.228Z
          Never heard that phrase but it worked! Thank you, Ben, for something different and fun!
          • Cindy Heisler 2s · 2022-08-03T13:04:26.547Z
            Never heard it put quite like that, but then I thought it was probably an Aussie thing. Thanks, Ben!
            • KayW 🤓3:18 · 2022-08-03T14:40:30.936Z
              You are on quite a roll this week, Ben! I never heard this phrase but google revealed an Australian song so I knew it had to be correct :D
              • Carolyn 6s · 2022-08-03T15:05:14.448Z
                Nice change!
                • Laura M 🤓4:38 · 2022-08-03T17:30:37.530Z
                  Different and fun! Though not enough crosses to fill the gaps in my knowledge about some of the entries :-)
                  • woozy 🤓5:17 · 2022-08-03T17:37:07.787Z
                    An alternative answer could be "Do one better" (keeping the C and then D in as corners-- Do = con one=the better=improved).
                    Can't say I've ever heard of "on the improve" (or on the improvement)
                    • DebbieC 🤓3:01 · 2022-08-03T17:14:05.822Z
                      Never heard the phrase. Thanks for the education. Is it similar to American/British "on the mend"?
                      • benchen71 constructor · 2022-08-03T22:15:55.478Z
                        Yes, that would be an equivalent.
                      • whimsy 🤓4:26 · 2022-08-03T18:17:58.867Z
                        Thanks for having us try something different!
                        • THC 🤓2:15 · 2022-08-04T11:26:59.630Z
                          Thanks, Ben!
                          • Capn Rick 🤓3:20 · 2022-08-04T13:08:45.261Z
                            Fun one, Ben!
                            • dplass 🤓1:03 · 2022-08-04T14:51:49.780Z
                              Unclear why I shouldn't use the starting C and ending D... and +1 to never having heard this phrase.
                              • benchen71 constructor · 2022-08-04T22:59:19.714Z
                                Because they are not turns.
                              • ReB 5:40 · 2022-08-06T01:39:52.607Z
                                Once I figured out to eliminate the two ends and just use the corners, I generated a phrase that seemed plausible, though I hadn't heard it before - and it proved correct. The closest American phrase I think would be "on the mend" - as in after an accident. Glad I had the mechanism all along.
                                • benchen71 constructor · 2022-08-06T07:03:08.387Z
                                  I love educating the world about Aussie slang!

                                  Had to Google a couple of the clues, but got the meta right way once the puzzle was complete. Thanks Ben!
