I'm with you -- my head is spinning trying to solve MGWCC.Bird Lives wrote: ↑Mon Feb 01, 2021 12:51 pm Briefly off the couch, but I will return there to spend the rest of the day looking at snow and fretting over not being able to solve MGWCC.
I have solved this one, though. Feels good to do it on the first day and with no nudges. Great puzzle!!

If I wasn't working so hard for you, my friends, I could have been spending more time trying to solve Matt's meta. Yeah... yeah, that's the ticket.cbarbee002 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 01, 2021 8:16 pm Ok, just knocked off my first MGWCC week 5 (yay!), so back here to get abused by Joshua/Al . . .
