We are always happy to get to know other muggles and help in any way! PM's are always welcome. The next best thing to winning a mug is helping a fellow muggle win a mug!

Ashore, with a little backfill and a confirmation from @ship4u! A couple of deep rabbit holes for me this week. Glad I finally saw the light!

Good Saturday morning muggles.
First a great welcome to our newest muggle @pacecar. Always great to have more muggles.\
A fun meta from Matt and we were up to the challenge. We have 2 muggles keeping Isaac company and helping with the inventory. And we have 223 on the shore crowding the Tiki Bar.
The crowd on the shore includes

Ashore! Grid was harder than the meta for me!
Overthinking is my super power.

I created a new topic in the Acapulco lounge. viewtopic.php?t=2744turbotron wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2024 5:06 pm The grid was pretty tough for me, and the metanism stayed hidden for quite a while too. I don't think I would've found the beach without some nudges.. so thanks to reliable Zoom crew for an assist this week!
Special props to @clonefitz for his brilliant and hilarious music video unveiling!
Will post video once it is complete. But for now the lyrics are there.

Sigh... after a few delightfully slight nudges from @BarbaraK, I am finally ashore. I had seen hints of the actual mechanic but hadn't looked at them thoroughly enough. Thanks for the suggestions to look closer!

For the record, Maggie and I are still keeping Isaac company. Maggie, in true bulldog fashion, is more interested in begging snacks than meta solving.
Too early to seek assistance. I'll move this from paper to spreadsheet to see if I can spot what has been hidden from my mind's eye.

Good luck to all for a successful solve. If you see that I'm ashore - rare occasion of late - message me if you'd like a nudge. Be sure to include your progress so I can know better how to assist.

Ashore quickly this week. Alas I wasn’t able to start until Saturday! I’ll take a cold beer

Ashore at last! I actually started down the correct solving path on Thursday afternoon, but abandoned that metanism when I came up with gibberish. I'm blaming it on the meds I've been taking after out-patient surgery on Wednesday. Yeh, yeh - that's the ticket. It's the meds, not me!

Quick solve by my standards. It went, hmm, interesting, oh, yeah, has to be. But wait, it's. . . Oh, you sneaky devil! Aha!
Happily ashore. Celebrated before the fact with some Glenlivet 15, hence the delay in solving. . .

I see we now have crawls and reverse video. Reminds me of my first web site.

Ashore, after giving up and then coming back to it. Unfortunately, I was under the weather for a couple of days and threw in the towel. Feeling much better today, I celebrated by giving the puzzle another look. It’s a truly different mechanism, although classic in certain ways. Different but classic – hats off to Matt for bringing us such a clever twist on things. Also, a lesson relearned: There may be multiple paths to solving a given meta, but giving up isn’t one of them. Even if we conclude we’re lost, our brain can continue solving in the background, and we’ll never know what it came up with if we don’t come back to it for another look.
