Whoops! Submitted but not beamed up. Thought I had it even without a solid click (and sitting on it over night), and I still like my answer, but looking forward to seeing what the real answer is!

I had a similar feeling about my answer. But it seems from a few comments here (mine, Hector's, maybe others) that there's a glitch somewhere. My answer wasn't initially counted as correct, though it was eventually fixed. If you think you have a reasonable answer, just email Matt and he'll happily fix it. Or PM me or someone else who's solved for confirmation.

Very glad to see I’m not just being super-dense this week. I clearly have what everyone else has off the bat and wasn’t expecting to have to do anything else. Guess I’ll get back to it.

I have an answer, and while a case can be made that it fits the specs, it is so prosaic and unimaginative, that I will submit it only if I'm desperate.

I'm so happy to read the other comments. I got the first step and thought the answer would fall out easily. I have an idea but don't feel that comfortable with it.... I'll mull over it a bit more. I'm not at all familiar with cable channels.

I think I have it, but could argue a few other answers as well.

The problem with interpretive puzzles is that they are subject to multiple interpretations. I do not envy Matt this weekend.

Well it was a swing and a miss, at a week one no less. Interesting because my answer fits perfectly. Will be interesting to see answer on Tuesday.

At this moment I feel like a weak one.

I seem to have fallen into a highly localized distortion of the space-time continuum and am experiencing a week six.

Don’t know why I’m so lost this week. I’ve picked it up several times and almost immediately put it back down again. Grid was easy enough, but I’m stumped on the meta clues.

I finally got around to watching the Zoom chat with Matt, and I was inspired to finally join the MGWCC! I feel like maybe this wasn't the best week to join, though, since this Week 1 has been a real struggle. Like others I have the first step and nowhere else to go. Guess I'll keep staring!

Solved with a lot of help from my friend.
