BACKWARDSFOUR isn't just a maddening card in Sorry - they were driving me crazy until I saw enough mistakes that I realized I must be missing something 😂

Untitled #2

Nice puzzle! I almost figured it out but had misspelled ADAMANT and couldn't figure out where I went wrong. I knew something tricky was afoot when I got to ENTA 😂. Themes like this can be tricky to solve online - now I'm thinking if there are ways I can improve the UI for that!

Same! I started singing the Tik Tok song in my head!

Themeless 9x9 - 6

This is the second time I've duplicated a theme answer. Anyone remember the last time I used CHICK PEA?

Heh of course! [Eat Too Much and You'll Falafel](https://crosshare.org/crosswords/L3NXqu03DyJ2yu0jSpfN)!

It took me a long time to figure out ACIDS as I had LIEON instead of LIEIN

Spread-Eagle

Nice puzzle! I especially liked ONEL and VTEN. Can somebody explain AVERSE to me, though?

WAP is a rap song! One section of it is a verse :)

Haha thank you! I was even thinking of it in that sense but couldn't stop thinking of AVERSE as one word 😂

mini 1 - tomato juice

Some great bands in here - YES and TAME Impala! I especially liked the clues for PEACESIGN and SEGA. Is that cover image DESMOINES?

I'm glad that you liked it! The cover image is one of the sculptures at Pappajohn Sculpture Park.

Fun puzzle! I had just learned CHROMAKEY, and I was glad I did!

Oh I forgot to say - I loved ELM! Nice to see a cryptic clue worked in, especially with the warning preceding it 😂

Themeless 9x9 - 5

Nice one Malaika! Some tricky clues in here

mini 7 - biles

I love the themers! Got stuck on NTS/NTEST/ROS. Great puzzle OO!

Midi the First: Playful Spirits

BOATRACE 😂😂 - great puzzle Guilherme!

I was so confused after solving, but now I get it! Funny puns, and the parsing makes it really well suited for a crossword!

Puns 9x9 - 2

Great puzzle Hannah! I got stuck on PRIE/EARTHA. Really enjoyed the long ones, I think PEARLDIVERS was my favorite

I got stuck on the same one. Loved the how many answers spanned the entire grid though!

I just realized the crossing could have been GRIM/MARTHA to make it somewhat easier, but it was fun that Hannah gave us a challenge!

Yeah it's never a bad thing to learn something new!

That would have been a good change, didn't think of that!

Fun puzzle! My favorite was UNTIMELYEND :-) I got stuck on PRIE and TETCHY. I've seen but never heard them called prie dieus before - learning experience! Thanks, Hannah B.

Midi 3: Intelligent sea creatures

OGGIN and TATERTOTS are standouts here. But I gotta say.... CRIMEHRCO is a realllllll stretch!

Yeah, that's totally valid :D 
I'll work to keep that kind of answer out of my puzzles in the future.

Themeless Puzzle (9-2)

Nice puzzle Will! The hardest one for me was ORYS I think. Goes without saying but my favorite clue was HAIR 😍

Time for the meta!

Modes of Transportation

Heh I didn't work it out but I still like the clue for TANGO - nice puzzle!

If only I could remember how to spell AIOLI!

Themeless 5x5 - 4

Nice one! I wanted to spell LHASA LLASA for some reason and couldn't quite figure it out.

Themeless 9x9 - 4

Nice one Guilherme! I think I must be being dense but can somebody explain the clue for AEIOU to me?

cArpEt wIthOUt (string meaning sequence). I made it in a way to sound like a normal phrase.

I think it means that the only five vowels in "Carpet without" are AEIOU, in that order. Quite a cryptic clue!

Themeless 9x9 - 3

Nice one Guilherme - I liked EASTEREGG! SUTRA was a tough one for me

Themeless 9x9 - 2

Nice one Emma! [I. Love. Bread.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2sx8Bc4mAw)

Man, I struggled! Couldn't get COUSINLY or WARMWATER for the life of me.

Never heard of "cousinly". But /shrug, thanks for the free puzzle

Recipe 1

I had to guess a bit to get ORDEM 😅 - nice puzzle!

As a flag nerd that one went in instantly for me!

Thanks! The unchecked square in a foreign-language entry was... not the gentlest, as a friend pointed out. A lesson for next time!

It's all good - I learned something! Looking forward to the next one

Mini the First

Great puzzle Hannah! ANTIPODEAN is such a cool word!

Very nice long words, I especially liked CARSALESMAN, and barely any bad fill to speak of!

Midi 2: No Aid

Tricky one (for me)! I liked the MISCUE theme - clever how you worked it both ways.
