I'm self-promoting, so feel free to throw any tomatoes my way, haha.

Extending the deadline on my monthly meta if you haven't figured it out already, though a couple of people have cracked it! It might be playing more like a Week 4, though I figured it was a 2 or 3! As always, the reward is...the satisfaction of knowing you're an epic muggle (though I am doing drawings soon).

Have a great start to March!

Mike

Yipes! I didn't even see this when it came out... so much for resting after a MGWCC.

The grid destroyed me. I gave up once, but came back and got it.Then needed help to get the meta.

Solid puzzle and meta. Great job Mikey! Learned something new about the Simpsons actor.

Took me a little bit to see the path.

It was tough to avoid the spoiler temptation.

I hope you get on the calendar so I don't miss your puzzles.

Just got this one. Spent some time trying to twist out something that wasn’t really there before seeing what was. Very clever!

Came to this one late -- and glad I arrived.

Fun!

Grid was challenging. I stared at it, fruitlessly, for a while -- then got the meta in more or less a flash. Nice when that happens.

What Chris said.. Took some time to see the first step, then quick to finish. Fun!

I had been struggling with this puzzle, so had put it aside. But the comments above made me look at the puzzle again.
And like Chris, saw the meta in more or less a flash. Weird how that happens (but still nice that it does.)

This was completely enjoyable! Clues were refreshingly different, grid was tough but doable, meta had a nice aha.

I am beyond honored by all your kind words! Being a neophyte at the construction game, sometimes the grid might be less than savory in parts, but I try to make the cluing as enjoyable as I can. :)

I forget when the deadline for this one is. Probably soon. I promise I'm even less organized than it seems.
