Pushed ashore by a fellow passenger. Put me in the ‘meh’ camp.

To quote 30A, “YEESH”!

On shore. I saw something but it took some time to bring it home. Pun intended.

Still on the boat. I've been monitoring this thread. After about 2 hours there were only 2 or 3 solvers. As of last night, maybe 6-8 hours after release, we were on message #35. Now it's been 15.5 hours and we're still near the top of page 3. Yikes. This really is a toughie.
I don't have anything clever to say, but if I did, it would go here.

I don't know if posting on a website violates any thing but here is an invitation to join Discord. https://discord.gg/neHsvaXj. It is supposedly valid for 7 days.

Just don't contact me if you have any question. I barely know how these things work.

WOW!!

After 20 hours, we have 7 on the ship and 36 on the shore - many with help along the way.

And the most frequent comment is "meh" although there is some disagreement

Don't forget the 4:30 ET zoom solving session. We are limited to 100 participants at any time but people come and go. If you can't get in check back in five minutes and there will probably be an opening.

The good news for @The XWord Rabbit is that there will be plenty of fodder for him to feast on. For me, it means that getting the status is not taking very long.

Good luck to all

Most definitely still on the ship...I can kind of see where to start looking, but it's not really getting me anywhere.

No idea even where to start. Thought a good night's sleep would help.

It didn't.

Entirely possible that I'm on the shore, or perhaps it's just an illusion.
