So, the trick is to go back to sleep and await enlightenment?
Or maybe just wait for the zoom call …….

Ashore!
Batting .750 in last 4 weeks. Ted Williams eat your heart out!
(but will likely revert to the Mendoza line by Labor Day)

Would anyone be willing to send me an invite to the Discord? I can't find it through searching

I believe I'm ashore... Though there is a bit of me that is thinking I'm on the wrong beach perhaps. But I can mostly justify it... So, with that said, pass me an IPA. I don't like to eat on an empty stomach

Ugh. I'm 100% sure that I know exactly what I'm supposed to do here, but I'm having a hard time picking which "six-letter grid entry" would have made a good theme answer. And I've gone through the grid multiple times now and I'm positive that I have the complete list of possible entries. WTF. I'm clearly missing something.

Good afternoon muggles
So far we have one on the ship and 97 on the shore for this challenging meta
And if you don't think that muggles are crazy and suffer from OCD, check out @newbymar's posting.
And there are many similar posts about getting the meta in the middle of the night

Eh, I guess I see the answer now- but I'll quibble somewhat with saying that it would be a GOOD sixth theme answer. It would be a so-so sixth theme answer.kurtalert wrote: Fri May 31, 2024 1:34 pm Ugh.

Ahoy, dear Isaac!
Ain't it a sight? Two Canucks
On a native shore.
Hat trick. Maudite for me, milk for The Smarter Half.

Yeah, took me at least 4 passes to get the right one. I originally picked a not-as-good one….kurtalert wrote: Fri May 31, 2024 1:34 pm Ugh.

On shore... Needed some direction that I received from the Discord this morning. Took a while to subo in. Hope you all have a great weekend.

Ashore, count me in.
I like everyone's odds this week.
There are 12 6-letter answers in the grid.
Picking one at random gives you a 8.33% chance of getting the correct one.
