So... I have two meta.
First one is legitimate and a fairly decent straight forward one:
Considering every factor
The answer to the meta is a type of question that considers every factor
This one should be fun. Although I probably made it too easy to guess. It was hard to clue the metanisms so that they weren't just spelled out or ridiculously hidden.

ARGGHHHH! A very severe error. Maybe fixable. Maybe not.
Oh, well. Just have a laugh at this other one I made which was me carrying a joke too far.
....
And this one......
I lead you to the answer
The meta is something you shouldn't feed a crocodile
I warned you I'd do this!
But don't worry. Just have fun and don't take it seriously.
I warned you I'd do this!
Two woozy ones: Considering every factor (a legitimate meta) ... and .... I lead you to the answer (you were warned)

Funny story. I was all set to enter Par for the course for the CrossHare midi contest for April but I mistakenly thought midi meant 7x 7 and not 11 x 11. Oops. Well.... Here's a complex but **small** meta on the subject of golf.

Okay.... the first one Considering Every Factor has been redone.

Got the second one, still stumped on the first! I see some things but can't quite put them together yet...

Got Considering; still working on I lead.
I swear I have solved the grid for Considering once already, and very recently, but I can't find it on my hard drive where I usually solve. Maybe I solved on Crosshare under its previous incarnation?
Edit: I found the older one in my browser history!

Got "I lead you to the answer" a while ago - nice one. Finally got "Considering every factor" - and it was well worth the wait. Thanks for both!

I see a couple of things in "I lead..." but they're not leading anywhere.
