No End in Sight -- November 2022

A monthly, music-themed meta crossword published at noon on the first Tuesday of every month. The puzzles increase in difficulty each month, and at year end there is a 13th puzzle (the "Mega-Meta") that invokes each of the 12 monthly puzzles. Currently available at https://pmxwords.com/, as well as through the Washington Post website here: MMMM at WaPo

Work was too busy for me to get to this for most of the day, but I'm finally on the board!

Thought for a while that the title might refer to my solving the grid :-)

Ditto. I recently started a seasonal part-time job, which is great fun, but it’s keeping me from doing my puzzles promptly. I may just have to call my new bosses and say, “Hey, it’s been a great ride, but …” 🙂 Anyway … on the board!

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:

OTB, right behind Ben. November MMMM came faster than MMM and MOAT, both of which I’m headed back to 😬

I really enjoyed this one. The grid hit that nice spot, as Pete often does, with tons of stuff I have no idea about, but enough that I could figure out that I started working through it and got the whole thing filled. And when I googled to double check, I didn't have a singe wrong square. The meta was fun and clever and not too hard. I think November came early for MMMM this year as this seemed more summery. And that hint about the mega meta was much appreciated.
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.)

On the board. Had the right idea from the start, but it took me coming back to it in order to actually find it. Happy to be back on track after failing to solve my first MMMM of the year last month.

Yay, nice Nov puzzle and enough of a hint to crack the meta meta.

On the board. I finally figured out what I was doing wrong. I was doing the right thing with “no end in sight” for a long time.
