Nicely done, Mark. Those of us with erratic solving skills - let along the ability to actually build one! - appreciate the cleverness of those who construct metas, whether new to the game or accomplished veterans. Looking forward to much more from you!
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-09T16:29:11.398Z
  Thanks, Tom - I have a few more in the works :)
Darth 🤓7:59 · 2022-11-09T14:07:19.369Z
It's prime time! Thank you, Mark!
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-09T16:29:22.990Z
  Thanks for solving, Darth!
Hector 3s · 2022-11-09T14:57:57.218Z
Wow, that's a lot of (prime) territory in a small grid taken up by theme entries! I only noticed the entries' connection to 'prime' after submitting (I had seen that the entries clued by two meanings had prime numbers). So I really solved with only half of the mechanism. Anyone solve with only the other half?
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-09T16:33:19.012Z
  I'm curious to know what path(s) solvers find, too. I used the smaller grid, partly to make the intersecting prime clue numbers easier to handle and also because 13 is a prime. I would have liked to have only 13 themers for the same reason but it was not to be
boharr 3s · 2022-11-09T15:34:11.900Z
Fun one. Thanks, Mark
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-09T16:33:33.020Z
  Thanks, boharr!
Qmark 4s · 2022-11-09T15:31:40.225Z
Thanks Mark!
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-09T16:33:42.651Z
  Thanks for solving!
wendy walker 3s · 2022-11-09T16:00:15.692Z
Terrific puzzle, Mark! Thanks!
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-09T16:34:01.134Z
  Thank you, Wendy
Bird Lives 4s · 2022-11-09T15:53:05.347Z
Successful maiden voyage. Is there more to the ORs than just as theme markers in the clues? Those two in 44A have me puzzled.
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-09T16:35:22.727Z
  Thanks, Jay. The ORs are just to denote the theme entries. Their appearance in 44A is just an oversight/coincidence on my part
Alex Sisti 3s · 2022-11-09T16:16:30.461Z
Nicely done!!
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-09T18:08:17.909Z
  Thanks for solving, Al!
woozy 23:28 · 2022-11-09T17:38:25.918Z
Fun! I have found all the 15 entries.

But by a funny coincidence I have recently constructed this puzzle with a similar theme! https://crosshare.org/crosswords/7lpVOdgoWPR9I9LHdiU4/principal-ideal-originalwell-not-so-original
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-09T18:08:40.425Z
  Thanks, Woozy, I'll try it out
DrTom 4s · 2022-11-09T20:16:26.543Z
Mark has clawed his way into our hearts with this MEOW. His mechanism is doubly sweet because there are two ways you can arrive - I mean along with all of the other constraints he put this into a GRID with a size that is a Prime number - genius. I was delighted when I got a chance to be one of his testers.
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-10T00:44:46.445Z
  Thanks, DrTom!
Laura M 🤓12:20 · 2022-11-09T22:24:15.437Z
Fun! I don't think I understand quite all 15 of them but close enough :-)
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-10T00:45:31.240Z
  Thanks for solving, Laura - I'll provide all 15 with the reveal next Tuesday
BrennerTJ 🤓50s · 2022-11-10T02:29:32.260Z
Great puzzle! I figured the answer from some of the words alone and only then noticed the number sequence.
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-10T03:17:08.398Z
  Thanks for solving, and glad you enjoyed it!
Teamdoubletow 2s · 2022-11-10T03:44:38.881Z
My husband enjoyed figured this one out! Great puzzle
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-10T04:32:53.657Z
  Thanks for solving!
whimsy 🤓9:36 · 2022-11-10T03:50:02.340Z
Yes, I test solved -- and yes, it took me all day (and a poke in the head from DrTom) to remember how to solve again! :D Good going, Mark!
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-10T04:33:24.423Z
  Thanks for test solving and re-solving, Whimsy!
dplass 🤓5:04 · 2022-11-10T15:18:14.584Z
Why PRIME TIME? (Full dislocusre, I gave up and mashed "reveal". I do see the 15 prime answers with "or" in the clues, but... why TIME?)
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-10T16:08:34.943Z
  Both PRIME and PRIME TIME are accepted answers. Each of the prime number clues has a grid answer that goes with the word PRIME, and I included PRIME TIME as an answer for solvers who answered the "What time is it?" Question with "Prime Time"
  - dplass 🤓5:04 · 2022-11-11T01:02:35.744Z
    Oh. I never heard of half of them .
KayW 🤓6:30 · 2022-11-11T22:21:46.914Z
DOH!!! the nudges didn't tell me anything I hadn't already noticed/guessed. But I just couldn't come up with that magic word until today. Very clever - and an impressive FEAT (not abbr)
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-11T23:19:18.746Z
  Congrats, KayW - thanks for solving!
Carolyn 6s · 2022-11-12T19:10:07.441Z
That wasn’t easy but got it without nudges!
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-12T19:22:18.969Z
  Congrats, and thanks for solving!
Sharkicicles 2s · 2022-11-12T20:39:22.226Z
Great puzzle!
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-12T22:22:14.786Z
  Thank you, and thanks for solving!
frostyjhammer 🤓7:11 · 2022-11-13T17:07:54.512Z
Well done! I put together a little spreadsheet with fifteen rows, and there -- in the first column -- the answer was staring me in the face.

Not that I saw the answer there

Looking forward to more!
- Mwoychick constructor · 2022-11-13T18:25:57.431Z
  Congrats, and thanks for solving!
ReB 21s · 2022-11-14T04:40:57.018Z
Having the themer clues be prime numbers was most ingenious.

  Thanks for solving!
