This week’s contest answer is a frequently faced decision.

Woo-hoo! #5 in a week 4!

#10! Only 5 behind Al! Such a nervewracking feeling to submit just after an update... Have to keep refreshing in hopes of seeing your name appear.

Definitely liked this one.

#9 (probably by seconds as the time stamp is the same)...we seem to be filling in the top of the leaderboard this week.

Well I am comically bad at making decisions, so I will likely be on the bottom of the leaderboard this week, if I make it at all. On the plus side, I'll have a puzzle for the weekend.

I'll take that #20 with pride and the acknowledgement that I almost never get a Week 4!

Ahhh, wish I would have printed and solved this as soon as it dropped, I was so on the right wavelength this week!

This one went quickly - agree re: same wavelength.

As always the numbers will bear out whether it's a true week 4.

Pretty sure I got it, but waiting on board confirmation. I thought it was a really neat puzzle—great construction. Confirmed.

I predict you will have this one solved before the day is over. It’s not that hard—you can do it.

Just submitted. Feel confident I got each step and came up with a highly plausible answer, but didn't totally click like I would like. We'll see in a bit, I suppose!

Yep, I submitted. I hit a few little bumps along the way, but it was a great puzzle.

Yup, #37 here! I've got a bit of a quibble with the set up, but will leave it at that for now. Fun and satisfying puzzle nonetheless!

. You're too good to miss this one.

Submitted an answer, time will tell.
I agree with tonyrobots...but that quibble may go away if I stare at it a bit more.

Edit: leaderboard updated, indeed got the correct answer. Week 3?

Beam me up (hopefully)! Enjoyable, and I never felt completely hopeless for toooo long, as usually happens on a week 4. (For this reason I'd guess that this was easier than the usual week 4...) I think I have the same quibble that tonyrobots mentioned, but overall it was a fun and clever puzzle.

Edit: #44! I really have a talent for submitting just after an update...

Enjoyed that there is more work to do after the first step.

What a relief! Matt's rabbit was findable. Maybe I can figure out the PGWCC now.

Beam me up!

For me, this was the right level of hard. Maybe a 3.5? Or a 3.25?

I saw something quickly, but then it took me more time than it should have to figure out what to do with it. I could have been, I don't know, fixing something, or writing an awful novel, in that time.

Still, a satisfying solve!

Beam me up! Went down the wrong rabbit hole for a bit, but woke up this morning and corrected my direction. Good one Matt!
