Pretty straightforward puzzle and solve this week. Might be another good intro puzzle for PGWCC newbies?

Nice puzzle. I like when I can do the grid without Google, and have heard, or sort of heard, of all the words in the grid. I did need to do some research for the meta, but the path was straightforward and fun.

I ... think I have it. We'll see. Nice grid. Guessing you won't be the only one needing to do "some research" for the meta, Toby!

I wish I knew what to research!
Well, I'll set this one aside for a while. There's time. Maybe I'll wake up with it.

I also wish I knew what to research. I wonder if this is one of those puzzles where you have to [REDACTED] or instead you have to [REDACTED]....

Ha, I prefer pre-enlightenment! Otherwise I won't be able to figure out the solution, hehe.

I haven’t decided if I want to even attempt this one this week. I gotta say - the answer to last week’s made no sense to me. If that is where he is coming from and the way his mind works - I’m not sure I want to get my mind in that space.

Well, I had the answer written out and didn’t see it until today. OK.

Took a circuitous path but finally got here. I generally try to avoid reading comments about a puzzle until I've solved it, but I gave in earlier today and looked to see whether it was likely that I was overcomplicating (yes). Nice one, now that I can appreciate it!

I've tried every "straightforward" path that comes to mind, but I guess I'm forgetting about one. Maybe I'll see the answer later in the week.
But yeah, the grid was exceptionally easy this week! Which actually scares me even more LOL.

I've made no progress on this one or Brian's latest. Maybe it's the lack of beer the past few weeks? My undulled brain keeps getting distracted by a million things, and I haven't been able to focus on these puzzles.

I think we're all distracted by current events. Go easy on yourself.FrankieHeck wrote: ↑Thu Apr 16, 2020 10:42 am I've made no progress on this one or Brian's latest.

I'm stumped too. I had a million clever ideas to chase down, only to infer from the posts in this thread that I'm probably overshooting it... again. Still have time and I've still got some more mechanisms to chase down.... but slowly.
