A crunchy medium, very nicely done. Needed a confidence boost.
The site is just a web page, a meeting place, a clubhouse - it's the group that's special.

Happy birthday, Emma! And thanks to both of you for the fun puzzle. I'm out of the box.
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.)

I am out of the birthday box! Thanks for the puzzle.
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:
