"Team Players" - May 29, 2022
From Will's email
This week's puzzle: Team Players
Difficulty: Easy
After a couple of really tough puzzles, I figured it was about time for an easier one.
The answer to this week's meta is a U.S. city.
(No Google!)

I’m out of the box, but “(No Google!)”? Will is definitely overestimating my knowledge of ******
If you want help with a meta, feel free to PM me. The more specific you are about what you have and what you want, the more likely I can help without spoiling.
(And if I help you win a mug, I’ll be especially delighted.)

Nice and smooth and doable -- thanks, Will!

People who don't know ****** are my kind of people.
I thought for a moment "well, even I know that" but then.... I didn't.
(My first guess was ********* even though ******** implied the correct answer. I did a "insurance google" and was rather surprised the other ones [especially ****** and *****] were associated with the correct answer, *********. I could have sworn they were all *********.)

Funny story. I was all set to enter Par for the course for the CrossHare midi contest for April but I mistakenly thought midi meant 7x 7 and not 11 x 11. Oops. Well.... Here's a complex but **small** meta on the subject of golf.

I had a hunch but definitely was in the "google required here" camp. Still, nice and easy!

Dinoed, but Google was definitely needed!
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta!
