It all adds up to me

I'd say this one WAS great shakes!

Loved this puzzle even though math gives me hives!

Superb effort, I wish I had seen the way forward without all the help I needed, but what a nice mechanism!

Excellent puzzle, Mark! Cynthia solved it very quickly, before I even got started!

Great puzzle from a fellow Boisean!

Nice one, Mark! Clever gridwork! At first I guessed "O the Maath" because I took 49d "slash" to mean subtract or take down (like at a store sale when they 'slash' prices). So I got an extra "a" at space 42. I thought it was dramatic but plausible. Had to visualize the "slash" symbol and say duh, he wants us to divide not substract! Hahaha.

The light finally went on. Got lost for a bit. Very nice!
Simply genius. One of my fave MMMs of the year - of course, my profession might have something to do with that! But, seriously, what a great puzzle!!

Really liked this! Saw the dreaded numbers in parentheses and panicked. But it came together really smoothly.

RRRRGGGGGHHHH... I knew what I needed to do; I just couldn't find the first operand. Then I looked at my notes where I had stuff like:
9ATIMES 3 M ...
14APLUS 1 P ...
26ALESS 4 S ...
And realized it was staring me in the face.

Really enjoyed this one! Very clever use of numbers.
Cindy Heisler 6s · 2022-10-17T17:33:29.141Z
I was doing it correctly, but didn't realize it until I followed through. Very nice!
