The answer is a five-letter animal.

And the grid was tough.

Super clever, and definitely not a no-brainer.

Enjoyable! I wonder if we’ll get a Xmas Eve puzzle, and a NYE puzzle.

That was a good one. I'm a big fan of 41A - I was a master of the clunky Atari 2600 joystick back in the day.

I like when I have to stare at a meta grid for a long time, at least an hour or more, getting nowhere, and then suddenly realize: "Hey, I think I'm seeing something ..."

Fun!

Some tough spots in the grid. Needed to google a bit.

I have it, after looking for all the wrong things. Chris has good advice, though path to answer came to me while walking in the street.

I'd like to add that this one provided one of the best aha moments I've had in quite some time. A very elegant meta.

Finally got it, after many hours of following something I felt had to be relevant, but wasn't. Fun puzzle with a solution that made me laugh out loud.

Got it (with help). I ended up liking this one more than I thought I would after staring at it for two days and getting nowhere. It's very cute!
