I have approximately 732 CDs, and now I never listen to any of them. Everything is on the Internet. But thanks for the reminder. And for the puzzle.

Fun puzzle. One of my favorite songs in the world is on 55D.
Good luck, fellow Muggles!

Dino me!

This one felt Mike Shenk-ish to me. Like a medium-hard WSJCC. Anyone else?

That, BTW, is decidedly a compliment, Will. Very nice!

I’m out of the box. Very clever!
If you want help with a meta, feel free to PM me. The more specific you are about what you have and what you want, the more likely I can help without spoiling.

(And if I help you win a mug, I’ll be especially delighted.)

Dino me!
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta! :shock:

I liked this one and finally signed up for their list after solving 5 or so puzzles.
The only thing I can't figure out is the dino references.

"Dino me" is an anagram of "I'm done".

Forgot to say I had vanquished the dinosaur so dino me! I got into some interesting thickets looking for this particular lizard, but with some kind assistance was able to bag the reptile. Which one was he, well:

Cedarpelta of course. Well protected but small enough to eventually conquer.
NUDGES!I am always willing to give nudges where needed; metas should be about fun, not frustration. Send me what you have done so far because often you are closer than you think!
