Based on the title, I had a guess what the answer would be. It was totally wrong.
Fun puzzle!

I got a late start on this since I was asleep at 7am when it was released in Hawaii time. It looked quite hard at first, but then one of the first things I tried worked, and I'm a bit surprised to have gotten it already (in at #23). Now what will I do with the rest of my week until Thursday?

#26 on the leaderboard. I remember this song well.
Good luck, fellow Muggles!

It's an embarrassment of meta riches these days.

Definitely not as difficult as last month. I think I may be singing the same song as @boharr

Got it. Not hard. But work meetings have TOTALLY interfered with my puzzling today.
I don't have the mega meta yet. Not sure when I can work on that. Or when it's "due."

Pete has put some stuff into the December puzzle that makes the Mega-Meta marginally easier. I got the Mega, so naturally it seems easy to me, but I encourage everyone to make a strong effort at it before the end-of-of-December final puzzle comes out (which is the due date for the Mega).

Thanks. Saw the hint. Haven't figured it out yet. But now at least I have time.stmv wrote: ↑Tue Dec 07, 2021 8:46 pmPete has put some stuff into the December puzzle that makes the Mega-Meta marginally easier.

Now for one final crack at the mega meta...
EDIT:
