Got stuck for a while on no_yall. The test was manageable but not super easy.

Great puzzle! Loved the clues for LGBTFLAG, GOTYE, DRILLBITS and TIP!

Tricky puzzle! I managed to trip myself because I was spelling 14A with two A's, and 2D still made sense as we are on crossHARE.com, but that's on me.

Very well done puzzle! Super clean, with solid hints. Nice to see your clue for 37-down. I used the same word in another puzzle recently and found it challenging coming up with a good hint.

Tricky one but I really enjoyed the themers!

Fun one! Pretty tricky but I'm glad I stuck with it 😊

I was trying to fit HARDIER for 1D for the longest time. Well done on the misdirection!

As a computer scientist who has become a frequent SSHER recently, loved that clue.

Very nice! I thought I knew BILGEPUMP but wasn't confident enough to put it in until I worked the crosses 😂

Darn I had EXO for EXA 🤦 - but great puzzle! Nice straightforward theme and a fun solve

Thanks for the kind words, everyone! This was my first full-size puzzle, and I'm looking forward to making more and getting better.
