"Get It Together!"
Good morning Muggles, and a happy Muggle Meta Monday to all! Thanks to Bird Lives for his excellent meta last week; so much crammed into such a small working space. Very nice job…
This week’s puzzle is called “Get it Together,” probably around a MGWCC Week 3 (although I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see some early solvers). Please PM me your solution by 4 PM on Sunday, and as has become our custom, I’ll post a couple snapshots of a leaderboard during the week. Feel free to PM me for nudges, but try to stick with it for a couple days first. If nothing else, Nudge Wednesday occurs on… uh, Wednesday this week.

The answer to this meta is an 8-letter word. Good luck!

Oh, Lord. I see numbers.
Puz file isn't working for me. Could just be me, though...

FrankieHeck, same issue here, but opening the puz link in a new tab did the trick for me.

Yeah, it happened to me too. I think it did the same thing in my last meta, and someone recommended opening it in a new tab. I don't know why that's happening. Maybe Brian has some ideas...

I don't know what the story is. Works for me in Safari and Firefox. Hector thinks it may be a Chrome issue. So try another browser or open in a new tab as Hector suggests.
So far, I have not been able to get it together on the meta.

As usual, tremendous cluing. I had several belly laughs as I went through them (as well as a few "Darn you Sisti" moments). Now I am sitting back struggling with the solve. I have had two ideas so far as how to approach, neither bore fruit or perhaps I just didn't know how to pick it. So, on the couch contemplating my next move (probably to the drinks cabinet!)
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!

Excellent! Unfortunately, there is no mug to award but I do have one of those original sandwiches from 1959 that I can send to you.
