It's come to my attention this puzzle has a fatal (but minor?) flaw. A corrected version without the flaw can be found here: https://crosshare.org/crosswords/Pf384mR9sDqeOzo7UFAC/never-forget-and-never-mind (Apparently my second one also had an…
This puzzle was doing just fine but then Black took her move and .... this is the result.
The answer to the meta is what game we are playing.
ADDENDUM: I suppose I must point out, if you do not know this game.... well, you just won't get it. I've…
I did something like this before but I think this one is better executed. This... isn't all that easy but it should come like a blinding flash from the blue.
First nudges: The grid is an odd size
Other then the first clue there aren't really any…
Okay. For Easter. But I'm too impatient.
(Wouldn't mind advice on how to construct grids where the symmetry of the black cells do paint me into corners with rediculously long words, or blank areas a mile long though.)

Difficulty level: 1... And I'm sticking with it. They don't get easier than this.
.... but the grid.... The grid may (or may not) be gruesome.
I once joked about a meta prompt being something like "The answer to the meta is a fifth track on the…
So.... this is based on what I hoped was the Metanism of the latest WSJ contest. I don't think it was (I haven't solved it yet.... this is one of those days where it's easier to redo a puzzle than to solve it.)
Okay.... Look. "Round Five" means…
Okay. I have corrected this. It's a fun one and should be easy to guess. But try to backsolve.
