More superbly constructed variety fun from PB. My sheet is a mess from so much erasing and re-entering. But all worth it for the very satisfying completion.

Definitely a satisfying payoff. Thanks PB!

Absolutely amazing! Quite the slog but was in total awe when completing the final step.

Loved it! Seemed almost like a meta puzzle, getting something extra at the end!

I agree with @ChrisKochmanski about a lot of erasing. At one point I had 12 empty spaces, not 10, but it finally came together. Actually used the final step of filling in the empty spaces to help pinpoint the 11th extra empty space.

I love the variety puzzles…such an enjoyable adventure and accomplishment.

Oh Patrick! That was a wonderful ending to a challenging puzzle. Thanks!

Fantastic puzzle!!

I am on a real Patrick Berry binge these days. I came late to the Containment Policy party and am slowly working my way through that - I'm currently midway through puzzle 9. I set that aside to work on his Middle of the Road cryptic; I finally finished the "first part" of that one earlier this week. (Not stuck, necessarily - just haven't got back to it.) And he was Matt's guest constructor last week on MGWCC. Mind you, I'm not complaining AT ALL. The man is a genius!

Oh, that was wonderful! I worked my way from the bottom left up. It helped that there were a fair number of proper nouns.

Yep, another excellent one! Same order as WW.
