Yay congrats!!! I thought of and submitted a guess, but unsurprisingly didn't get it :-)

I'm on the board. 3 for 3. Pretty new at this contest, so don't even have an idea what to look for regarding the super meta. I need to go back through the 2019 puzzles and get a better understanding how that part comes together.

It’s probably more helpful to look at the megas from three years ago- the last 2 years had clearly marked clues (with a “***”) whereas prior ones were a little more opaque like this years.

Really?? People have solved the mega meta???
OK, I'll take the January, February, and March puzzles with me on our weekend visit with our older boy, daughter-in-law, and granddog. I'll see if I can get it. (While attempting to remain sociable.)

I got this one now. I was making it harder than it was and missed an obvious connection. As usual, I hadn't heard of the song before.
I'd actually gotten it last night, but I accidentally mixed up the "screen name" and "answer" which locked me out for a while. Sorry about that, Pete. I wasn't trying to do it.
Maybe I'll take a crack at the Mega Meta this weekend.

Done and done! Loved the meta and resulting earworm, but probably much easier for someone my age (thank you Pete for throwing a bone to us geezers!)
I can't believe some have gotten the meta mega already. Congrats to all who have! Tho I haven't taken a hard look into it yet, I don't have any inklings at all....

I was just about to say "Who ARE these people who have the Mega Meta already??" Then I saw that they were Muggles. Of course they were.
At least I'm 3 for 3!
