I am sure I speak for all the constructors when I propose raising a glass of grog to our friend @Cap'n Rick! He is truly the one who keeps the SSS ship on course week after week.

Thank you for your kind words,
@Wendy Walker. I would gladly share a ration of grog with you and the other excellent constructors anytime. Heck, you created as many SSS metas as I did this past year! Please keep 'em coming!

This was almost as much fun the second time as the first. I forgot I had seen this before and stepped through it one more time. Classic Cap'n...classically good.

I second it! But I second it from wherever I'm at (ship, couch, I forget) - nothing yet, other than the pieces I need to cobble together somehow. I'll keep wearing my green and pondering!
Edit: I need to stop overthinking these. That is all. Thanks,
@Cap'n Rick!

Forgot to post yesterday, but SSSolved NNNudglessly*! Thanks, Cap'n, for an inspiring year of puzzles, and here's to many, many more.
*I solved without nudges, but I always like to read them after the fact... in this case I entirely missed one cool detail. Very nice!

Thanks, Lydia. I'm looking forward to sharing Sundays with you and Christina when
"Pair-o-Ducks" debuts this Sunday at 12:00 ET. Good luck!
