Jumped out of the box after putting two theme answers in the blank grid. (But finished it anyway, because they're always fun puzzles.)

Very nice! I guess "Dino me", but I'm new and I don't know what that means, lol. Thank you!

lol confess that I was stumped on this one for a while. Knew the mechanism, obviously, but was having a hard time finding something that fit it. :)

Fun one, thanks Emma and Will.

See viewtopic.php?t=527&start=21#.
@oldjudge suggested "dino me!" as the "solved it!" metaphor for the Pandora's Blocks puzzles early on.

Dino me as well. Grid was a bit challenging as I ended up having to solve from the bottom up. Easy meta as advertised. Thanks
