MGWCC #757 - “A League of Their Own”

[MikeyG]

I am a hybrid solver in sometimes I do a puzzle to get the meta (i.e., once I get the meta, I'm done) versus finding the meta and/or grokking what's going on but then enjoying the ride for the rest of it.

And this was the latter, since this was definitely one I wanted to complete. Pretty creative fun, from an initial, "What in the world is this?" to "Huhhh?" to "Ohhh, okay." Great start to December!

[Cinny]

Beamed up. So glad to have a week 1.

[HunterX]

Awaiting transporter beam. Glad it was a week one. I'm assuming the MMMM will drop soon. And I like a relaxing weekend.

[MMe]

MMMM is always the first Tuesday of the month.

[HunterX]

Not sure how specific to be in my submission… opted for simplicity. we shall see. i’ll declare myself beamed til proven otherwise.

I opted for specificity. But I can't imagine the simple answer wouldn't also suffice. Given you're on the board, it does.

[HunterX]

Beamed! Cute week one. Never saw two letter answers before!

And just where did you see two letter answers?

[HunterX]

MMMM is always the first Tuesday of the month.

Relaxing weekend... here I come!

[Joe]

MMMM is always the first Tuesday of the month.

Relaxing weekend... here I come!

Right there with you, HunterX!

Beamed up, fun puzzle and clever construction

[Cap'n Rick]

Beamed aboard! Fun one!

[Bob cruise director]

On the board. Fun one but some discussion may be had on Tuesday

[ky-mike]

Late start. Would have been top 30 if I had been home to start at noon instead of lower 200s.

Fun concept.

[woozy]

Okay... not a good week. 3 out of 6.... 4 out of 6 with Pun of a Kinds all *ten* nudges. But this and the WSJ were straightforward at least. But late start to both of them.

[jhseeman]

Geez....get stuck with work, don't get around to doing puzzle until 5pm....and Dang, realize last update at 4:07 and already at 228.....seems like there's a queue at the platform to get beamed up....

[SJMcK]

Beamed up at #251. Tricky grid, in my opinion.

[MikeyG]

4 out of 6 with Pun of a Kinds all *ten* nudges.

My apologies, haha. (It did play more like Level 4).

[Meg]

Late to the party. #161! Nicely constructed.

[KayW]

Beamed up.

[TeamDoubleTow]

While I knew the answer before filling in grid all the way... definitely seemed (to me at least) harder than a week 1. Very fun and worth filling in the grid all the way.

[Barney]

Wut the fresh hell is this puzzle?

Week 1‽

I’m done. Just done.
