"Inner Turmoil" - April 8, 2022

[Puzzle mom]

Ashore thanks to last call!!

The muggle zoom room is great!!

[ADS]

Okay, I am almost certain that I am ashore. Hoping it is the right shore.

[Katiedid]

Hey, I finally got it! I just had to pick it up again and work through several rabbit holes to find the right one.

[Richard]

Ashore thanks to the Zoom room. Not submitting.

I do think this was an excellent meta.

[Beth C]

Finally ashore. Guess I'll find out soon enough if I am right.

[WSJosh]

As of now, still at sea

[Mister Squawk]

Finally got it. No nudge this time. Four out of five stars for difficulty, IMHO.

And if you're not sure, you're not ashore.

[Bob cruise director]

Our final count is 25 on the ship and 118 on the shore

Good luck winning the elusive mug - better odds this week than other weeks

[Cap'n Rick]

Dragged ashore by my buddy @boharr, but I see that the beach party is over. Nothing here but extinguished tiki torches and cold embers in the fire pits. Not even one "beer" left for me to "hold".

[aaugusti]

After a couple of weeks on another boat with a mouse in Florida, I am back ashore thanks to the Sunday Zoom group.

Have a great week all!

[Ben B]

Last minute solve! Happy to be on shore after quite a struggle.

[jhseeman]

hitting the beach....late to the party... but sand between my toes.

[bread-girl]

Lost at sea this week! Can’t get ‘em all

[Bayside Bomber]

Two aha moments with less than an hour to spare. On shore though the sun has set.

[Cindy N]

I did make it onshore earlier this evening, thanks to a very helpful response when I reached out. Whew!

[escapeartist]

In the bar with Isaac, who is smiling as always.

[Limerick Savant]

Sent my last minute entry because I am either on shore or a mile out in the Gulf about to go down for the third time and I am really not sure which it is. Discouraged by the level of confidence shown by those claiming their spot on the beach. Though my solution seems to fit the requirements even with a final twist, I feel more like I chose how the mechanism would work than it demonstrated itself to me. It will be interesting to see the postmortem discussion.

[DrTom]

The etiquette I was questioning was to PM someone directly. In the past I asked for someone who was around and willing to give a nudge. How do I know who's willing and able to help?

Several of us have listed in the footer that we are happy to provide nudges. I think we all ask that you tell us what you have done so far so that we do not give a nudge that you've already tried or so that we know where you are in the process. But, I truthfully think you could ask about anyone who has solved because people are usually more than happy to help.

I'm glad I didn't spend a lot of time on this one.

The clue in 70A was insanely vague.
