Beam me up! Kinda tricky for a Week 1, IMO.
Getting nowhere on WSJCC and MMMM (even with the hint).

Beam me up! Maybe I’ll find the answers to the WSJ and the MMMM once I’m on board!

Way to go!! Congratulations!
I agree, a bit harder than week 1, but fun!

I delayed doing MGWCC until after dinner so that I could focus on WSJ and MMMM. Thankfully, MGWCC was far easier than WSJ --- and I doubt I'll EVER get M4!
Good luck, fellow Muggles!

Beaming. I think of Week One as entry level -- the kind of thing you could give to a complete novice, and they'd figure it out. But I agree with Jeremy Smith -- this one requires prior knowledge of some meta mechanisms, both for figuring out the key word and in submitting the right answer.

Flying high as I’m beaming up. Yes, that was a tall order for a week one.
Thanks, Matt. Loved it.
Here’s a tall plant I’d suggest you order
Conca D’or lily.

Beamed up at #238...fun one that was maybe more week 2, but that's fine because I can solve week 2s.
One rabbit hole I went in due to the title but managed to lift out of it easily enough...

Beamed up. Like others have said, it was more difficult than I anticipated. I needed a confidence builder and this one almost had the opposite effect. Amusing looking back at after solving.

Wow... one of those where I had the answer looooong before I was convinced I had the answer. Back to WSJ and MMMM now!

Requested to be BEAMED UP, but mistakenly forgot the prism I was holding might have resulted in me BUMMING DOWN.

Thank heavens for success on this one, even though it wasn't a typical Week 1. I'm struggling on almost all the others. Is it my imagination or are they all getting more difficult?

Started this evening, and somewhat quickly got step 1 (and 2), but can't figure out what to do now, since what I get is gibberish. :-/
