MEOW #207 Blindly Following

[hoover]

Eight, not seven.

I found all eight but had no clue what to do with them, because I wasn't looking at the clues. I was looking for alternate answers.

Me too. And this concludes my trip back in time, as I think I'm now caught up on all the MOATs and MEOWs from last semester.

Oh, my goodness! I saw your post earlier this morning and acknowledged to myself that you were catching up.
Now, several hours later, I thought, hey, it's Wednesday, so there should be a new MEOW!

I scrambled to the MEOW forum, clicked the most recently modified thread, saw that there were already quite a few solvers, went back to page 1 and downloaded the .puz. Hmm... it's named with a (1) indicating I already have that file. Looking back... yep, I solved one with this title in November.

And cleverly, the graphic shows people following each other, with a caption, "He'd never do that!" "Oh, that sneaky @DrTom !" I thought. He's giving us a second puzzle with the same title, grid, and meta prompt!" That's just something he would do, I thought.

After copying in all the same entries from the previous puzzle, I realized .... Um, no. It's only Tuesday.

You are right, it DOES sound like me.....
