Huge props to Peter Abide! This MMM just got top billing on Mike from Crosshare's weekly best-of list: "This one is a nice smooth grid with a very clever meta mechanism."
Good luck, fellow Muggles!

My first MMM. Still learning the culture, but looks like it's gonna be more meta fun. Thinkin I *like* this graduated nudge thing. Heard "something" during the ZOOM thing, but it wasn't clear to me. That first "spoiler nudge" was both enough to get me over the hump *and* to make me feel like an idiot for needing it. Getting used to that. The price I must pay for the fun. Have no idea where this places me relative to the furniture at this point.
As the contest seems to be delayed, did I hear Dr. Tom mention that he might have a meta floating around here somewhere this week?

Off the couch!
Wait. I don't want to be off the couch...I'm on vacation!
Okay, getting up...sitting back down.
Very nice, Mr. Abide.

Off the couch! This was my first MMM and I thought it was really clever. I always love holiday-themed puzzles
