XWord Muggles Forum

I see some things, but not enough things...

Edit: I think that’s my first post-enlightenment! Not confirmed yet, but beam me up!

Right now, I did the puzzle, and I'm like, "Okay, nice themeless." (Many metas do boil down to that!)

I'm still recovering, so I'm rather stumped at the moment. No nudges until much later in the game, of course, but several times, I've posted here saying I was stumped, and the post helped clear the cobwebs in the brain. Hoping that's true for this one!

Got it.
And started figuring out how to use Numbers as a solving aid on Mac computer (after seeing all the cool spreadsheet markups and reading Joe's how-tos for Excel).

Matt says I’m ready to taxi down the runway!
Goodby snow!

Submitted with confidence after initial frustrations.

Definitely a funny one that way! I gotta say, I love having this forum if only for the benign comments about how others' solves went, or to get people's take on how delighted they were with the answer. They don't give away a thing, but they can encourage a second look at something that was missed or assure me that I'm heading the right direction. Initial frustrations for sure, but I'm back on board!

Took me forever to get the first step. The rest came fairly quickly. Beam me up!

After a fail last week, it was nice to see the light early.

I think Matt was merciful with this week 4.

He said that it was more of a week 2.5, to make up for last week's week 5.

I’m stuck. I think I have the first and second steps toward the solution but can’t land the answer.

Haven't gotten confirmation yet, but this is a 100 percenter.

Energize and, if I'm wrong, scatter my atoms into space.

Pretty sure but haven’t submitted yet.

Hm. I see something, but nothing that spells anything, lol.

Pretty sure I got it, but it took me a long time! I was positive that something different was going on, but I guess it was a coincidence.

Logical step...five letter NON-word...maddening...

Beam me up! I feel confident but not confirmed so I hope I materialize in the transporter room.

EDIT: Confirmed! Aboard in one piece.

Step one took several hours.

Step two took considerably less time (but more Google research than I care to admit).

Submitted and awaiting judgment.

CONFIRMED, on the mother ship.

I was slow to find Step Two and then had to do some confirmatory Googling. The board isn't updated, but I'm sure I've got it. So beam me up. I'd be out of my gourd if I were left behind.

Update: Upbeamed, confirmed.

Beamed up. Feel like I should have gotten this sooner. My breakthrough was part "a-ha", part "d'oh!"

I wasn't 100% sure I got it right but the board just confirmed it, so now I get to go to bed. I'm grateful it wasn't harder than last week.

It's now time for Double Epiphany. Needed two of them to go the distance on this one!
