Very cool. That definitely took a second (or third) look.
The site is just a web page, a meeting place, a clubhouse - it's the group that's special.

On the beach. Page one! G & T please.
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! :shock:

Oof, that was not so easy, but after a lot of putting it down and picking it back up, a light bulb went off and now I'm safely on the beach.
