MEOW #165 Unwanted Visitors
Posted: Wed Jan 24, 2024 12:00 am
This puzzle was constructed while I desperately tried to solve the last MGWCC of 2023. (If you recall, there were no successful solvers for more than 18 hours! I could have got the achievement "1-Across" - usually impossible when the puzzle drops at 4am my time - if only I'd managed to solve it before everyone else!) Anyway, to the puzzle at hand, I have a feeling the grid is going to be the biggest challenge you will face. The answer to the meta is a plural noun.
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.
Unwanted Visitors - Crosshare
Unwanted Visitors - PUZ
Unwanted Visitors - PDF - I recommend using pencil for this one!
Kitten
Calico
Persian
Puma
Lion
Nudges are here.
The solution is here.
(If you are wondering about the above image, I used Dall-E to extend the original cartoon in both directions; the resulting weirdness has absolutely nothing to do with the meta!)
And let's do the prize thing again! One successful solver will be selected at random and will receive the MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack (which, by the way, is available for purchase here. The winner (and purchasers!) will gain access to 14 metas (and a mega-meta, which no one has yet solved!) that will fit nicely into your spare moments, should you have any!
