I hope these nudges will help. They start with one very similar to yesterday’s and get nudgier and nudgier.
Now we’re getting into what DrTom has characterized as not so much a nudge as a slap upside the head.

after dilly dallying around in the rabbit hole I was enjoying....nudge 3 launched me off the couch.
Great Meta, well done. Thanks for the puzzle.

I knew what the answer might be. I just didn't see it.
Until I did - after some of the nudges.
Off the couch - thanks for the puzzle!

I needed the nudges to get off of the couch. Thank you Jay
If I’ve solved and you need a nudge, you can PM me. Happy to pay it forward.

Yeah, no. I guess I'm just hopelessly dense on this one, but if anything, the nudges only left me more confused. Seems like my tush is going to be firmly planted on the couch for the duration. Oh well -- can't win 'em all.

Whew, needed all the nudges and quite a while studying them. Thanks, Jay! (Sometimes you see it, and sometimes you don't! ) If we had a Golden Rabbit Hole award for this one, I would surely be a nominee.

Looking at all the lovely, orange carrots down here! Now I know why the rabbits dig so many DEEP holes like the one I’m in now!

Needed the fourth (or fifth I guess counting yesterday's) nudge, but speedy after that. Fun puzzle, thanks.

Criminey -- needed all the nudges, and then had to read them about 100 times to finally get what they were hinting at. Made this one way too complex. Ah well, at least I'm finally off the couch. Thanks for the puzzle!

Off the couch after yesterday's and today's first 2 nudges. What an absolute delight! Thanks so much for the puzzle.
