Beamed!
I got help, but the experience was still very satisfying.
Thanks, Matt!

So…have logical steps, have an answer, have doubts. Anyone willing to confirm before I submit?

A wonderful group solve with @Joe Ross, @KayW, @Bob cruise director, @FKelly, and @Jade. Synergy at its best!
Good luck, fellow Muggles!

Fully acknowledging a lot of help from a "funky" compadre I'll declare a beam up to the mother ship. If I am being honest I do not find this the most satisfying of MG metas, but that is probably like saying it is my least favorite meal at Per Se. Now, full disclosure, I have never eaten there but I have eater=n at a Thomas Keller restaurant and based on that...repeat the above.
In at 78 - which is VERY good for me.

NUDGES!I am always willing to give nudges where needed; metas should be about fun, not frustration. Send me what you have done so far because often you are closer than you think!

With a rabbit-hole pruning nudge, I’m starting a new streak after being off a couple weeks. On my way to 245!

That was hideously difficult. I am not knocking the puzzle in any way by saying that. I'm in awe of its creation & of those freakily intelligent folk who solved it in mere minutes. WELL DONE!

Sorry I missed the group solve, but found my way to the beam-up spot alone. (At least I think so - will know after the next update, but quite confident.)
It was not the first thing I tried, or the second, or the third,...
Some stuff that I'd thought must be relevant turned out to be so, but not in the way I'd assumed.
I have two comments about non-meta things, but to avoid any trace of spoilage, I will be good and wait until Wednesday.

If you want help with a meta, feel free to PM me. The more specific you are about what you have and what you want, the more likely I can help without spoiling.
(And if I help you win a mug, I’ll be especially delighted.)

How about comments on meta things...or have you never meta thing you didn't like?BarbaraK wrote: ↑Sun Nov 27, 2022 10:39 pm Sorry I missed the group solve, but found my way to the beam-up spot alone. (At least I think so - will know after the next update, but quite confident.)

Never meta meta I didn’t like. (Well maybe one or two.) How about never meta muggle I didn’t like. That’s the winner!

Would love a nudge if anyone would be willing. Have been staring at this one without a good foothold for a couple of days.
