Welcome to...

benchen71's Metas on a Tuesday (MOAT)

Can you storm the castle by getting across the MOAT? I just love the fact that Paul, at the start of the 3rd chapter to the Philippians says, "Finally, my brothers and sisters..." - and then continues on for another 2 chapters! (In fact, he says "Finally" again in Phil. 4:8, and at that point I think he really means it, because the letter is all over 15 verses later.) This is something that often happens during sermons or speeches: when someone says "And finally..." I am never sure how serious they are. Which brings me to this meta, in which you're looking for an adjective.

The easiest way to submit is on Crosshare (and you get instant feedback and unlimited attempts!) But you can also PM me with your submission. Either way, I'll compile a list of those who successfully solve the meta.

And Finally... - Online Form

Nudges are here.
The solution will be posted Monday.

While I'm posting, allow me to advertise my new puzzle release: the Rejected (Non-meta) MOAT Pack. Check out the announcement post here, and I look forward to processing your orders soon!

Castle stormed (or did the castle storm me?) Either way, done and done and really nice. Lots going on. But one thing for sure.

Moat's crossed.
Thanks for the puzzle!

Crossed the moat. Fun puzzle, Ben!

De-MOATed. Thank you, Ben.

Got it. TFTP!

the MOAT has been crossed. Nice fun puzzle and meta. Thanks

Crossed the moat!

I clippety-clopped across the moat. Nice puzzle!

I am happily across the MOAT! Nice job, Ben!

Across the moat. Enjoyed it. Just my speed.

Late start for me today, but I have crossed the moat. This was a fun one. Thanks, Ben!

Cast out the mote in my eye to see my way into the castle --

Pencil me in at 29… Enjoyed it Ben, cool challenge!

Crossed the Moat. Loved it, Ben...thanks!

Took too long but I finally got MOATivated enough to try somehting new and that worked. Another great issue from the land down under (which thankfully did not make me chunder!).
Ben, you are the master of disguise, took me forever to see what I needed to but then I could not look away. Thanks for an excellent puzzle as usual.

MOAT crossed! I was about to throw in the towel but Dr. Tom's post motivated me to look for something else to try and there it was.

Hopefully that will inspire me to get back to work on Dr. Tom's puzzle, which I currently am most unhappy about and I don't want it to end that way.

Crossed. Stormed.

Very nice!
