Ashore with a nudge, definitely got sidetracked by red herrings! Now for wine and settling in for my area's first winter storm tonight.

Onshore….(I think). I submitted the name of a show and I’m confident with my answer, but I don’t think I have the entire mechanism. Now I’ll go back to staring at MGWCC.

Ashore.
Same as above. I believe I have it but not sure why.

On shore after too many nudges to allow me to submit my answer. Should have figured it out on my own,... especially since I love the show. Happy New Year to all!

I made it to the beach, with just under 6 hours to spare. I'll have another sazerac!
Happy New Year to this great community.

On shore with a joint effort with my husband. About 30 minutes ago I was going to post that I was giving up. Funny how you can see something new after looking at the puzzle for days.
Happy 2022 everyone!!

Still stuck on the ship! I thought I had found part of the mechanism, but just can't seem to make it work. I really haven't devoted much time to the meta this weekend because I chose to enjoy my granddaughter's company instead. What an imagination she has!
Happy New Year, everyone!

Enjoy your granddaughter while she is young. We will always have metas.

WOW ... back after a long period of computer issues. Strange -- but all worked out now. Just in time to ARRIVE AT THE BEACH! Drinks are on me for a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Finally on the beach. I had thrown in the towel after several attempts, and then thought of one last thing to try which worked! Celebrating with a Boulevard Sugarwood Baklava.

Gosh I hope not, crows are notoriously hard to cream together with the sugar and bitter to make a cake, but the do make a ice magpie....Flying_Burrito wrote: ↑Sun Jan 02, 2022 2:36 pmI do not count my Gaffneys until they hatch but I know what you mean - even after solving with a mechanism that makes perfect sense, I told myself that those red herrings on the grid had to serve a higher purpose, but to no avail. Who knows, it could be crow pound cake that is awaiting for us on Monday morning for breakfast instead of DrTom's pound cake.
NUDGES!I am always willing to give nudges where needed; metas should be about fun, not frustration. Send me what you have done so far because often you are closer than you think!

I'm just on shore at this late hour, but only just filled the grid this evening. Fairly satisfied with the answer and process.
