I’m pretty sure I see enough to know that this involves something I’m not good at.

Thanks joe.

Oh my, I solved it! Thanks for the special puzzle, Mike!

In the Q&A they mentioned sending in the answer but it was quick and I did not get the address

also when I first did this, it was not clear that there was a meta

Fun one! I like it when you're not done after the first step.

No, you're gonna love it. For me it was a great aha moment. Worth working for it.

Well the difference is that I am horrible at these. After this weeks Gaffney debacle for the Friday contest - I don’t think I am going to even attempt this one.

Lovely! and solved.

Not easy at all! But the mechanism is elegant!

Bravo! Nice mix of straightforwardness and the needed AHA moment.

First time I've used the Joe Ross Excel format...pretty nice! Different when you're used to actual made-for-crosswords apps but much easier for me than printing a paper copy. So thanks for that!

Ok, so now that the Friday noon hole has been filled by the Gaffney delay....

Got it. Tough.

Very cool! Loved it.

TPS, you can get this, if you haven't, already.

This was not so easy (both grid and meta), but somehow I got it anyway. As MikeM000 said, this was a nice replacement for the missing MGWCC Friday meta.

You can solve this, Todd. The Basics.
