The answer to the metapuzzle is a sweet drink you might want to order after completing this puzzle.

Good luck!

Had to choose between two natural answers. I could have waited & thought some more, but I'm spending too much time on these things as it is!

Sent my answer in just in time to download the MMMM... I'm 99% sure of my answer, but I've been wrong before.

Super satisfying! And honored to be on the "leaderboard" with the two folks above.

My wife will dig that I got this one - it pays to marry someone with complementary interests! (Say no more, say no more)

pgw is quietly compiling a "dossier" of excellent puzzles...but I digress...need to get back to the Indie Meta suite tonight....

No clue. Nada. Zip. Hoping I’ll get some "post enlightenment".

OK. I have something.....but I don’t feel like I’m all the way there. Yet.

Btw and to be clear to the broader group, my reference to “dossier” had nothing to do with either current events or this puzzle...it’s a nod to the Indie 500 meta suite...

Keep going, Meg!

I have absolutely nothing right now, but I'm looking forward to getting to know this puzzle for a while longer.

Ok I think I got this one! Not 100% sure, because I rarely have that confidence (not after an embarrassing word game mistake 40 years ago), but my answer was satisfying enough to submit.

Not seeing it this week. Have a good idea of what I’m supposed to do, but don’t see the path yet. Does Isaac have a bar on this ship?

The grid was difficult, and I haven't even a glimmer on the meta. Oh well...

Tough grid. And nothing yet on the meta. (Rabbit hole leading nowhere good.) But I'll return to this one during the weekend.

I agree that grid was hard, with some funny spellings, unless I have made mistakes, which is probably likely. Anyway, meta still a mystery.

I submitted an answer that I'm fairly confident in. We shall see. I have been in a PGW slump lately...

I have an answer that is good enough, so I'm considering it solved. I don't like sweet drinks however, so hoping I can substitute something else later this evening.

Excellent meta idea... I never came close to solving it! It seems that most of PGW's metas are out of my league but I'll keep trying.
