"Make It An Even Dozen" May 3, 2024

[DrTom]

Completed the grid last evening and saw several things that kind of make me think I should be able to solve, but I have not yet. I think if I do I'd better paddle for a different island, this one is full.

[clonefitz]

Boatside, with Isaac.

[haydendog]

Officially at sea hoping for inspiration soon. I know I should see something but so far I see nothing!

Edit: Found the path when I least expected it. Ashore!

[auee89]

Finished the grid and am ashore! May the 4th be with you!

[Dickie_Dunn]

These are not the shores you are looking for..... Well I beg to differ. Ashore! Being early, I'll stick with my pot of joe. Very neat construction.

[Collegetowngirl]

On shore. Grid was tough. This morning I despaired of ever understanding the title or really anything about the meta … but then my husband noticed something … and it was quick after that. Added bonus — a new friend is on our prayer list with a request related to that city.

[Justmarebear]

Ashore-

[b4alltime]

The mechanism came to me in those thoughtful moments just before slumber. Successfully fought the urge to get out of bed but addressed the issue as soon as I had coffee in hand this AM. Turns out the location is well known to me from days gone by.
Regards to all,
Jim

Still at sea. Awoke with an idea that seemed too good to be true and it was. Some darn rabbit hole. Again.

Good Saturday morning muggles

First welcome to our newest muggle @DebPal. A great meta to make your first on shore.

Second Happy Star Wars Day and May the Fourth Be With You.

An interesting challenge from Mr. Gaffney and between 1A and the MGWCC, if you did not have kids, you probably would be challenged understanding either the answer to 1A or understanding the meta answer to the MGWCC

So far we have 12 on the ship and 153 on the shore.

Keeping Isaac busy serving drinks and adjusting the TVs are

And finally Go B's - Sorry Leafs' fans

[Powers2020]

I think I'm onshore, but feeling a little uncertain. Someone please DM me to allay my fears!

[ImOnToo]

I’m on the ship with Isaac. Not seeing anything so far.

[Penny_Keatley]

Still adrift, may not get it this week.


Edit: It came to me while watching high school volleyball! On the beach!

[steveb]

I’m onshore at last after a series of wrong turns.

Second to all of our Trekkie muggles Happy Star Trek Day and May the Fourth Be With You.

No! No, no, no! Today is Star Wars day. Star Trek day was in September (and there was a lovely MMM puzzle to recognize it.)

The Force is a Star Wars thing.

What is this world coming to?!

[Tcassutt]

Ashore, with help.

@BarbaraK - my humble apologies. I have corrected my mistake.

May the Force Be With You

[Susan Goldberg]

I’m still floundering…

[jimbo1]

Forgot to check in yesterday.
The sea breeze was delightful with the evening cocktail.

[avian]

Just joined the forum and really stuck on this puzzle. I found a possible answer but I have a feeling it's not right. Looks like I'm still on the ship and will probably remain there.
