XWord Muggles Forum

I need a nudge here. Tired of beating my head against the wall.

Ashore with nudges from@ship4u. I did like this one in spite of looking in the wrong places at first.

At the top it says "Muggle Zoom Room". Just click on it and you're there!

Completed grid Thursday but not on shore til today while battling sickness. Stay safe and healthy all Muggles!

I don't think it's a "today" room. I think the link is always there and anyone can go there at anytime. It's just that if you go at an off hour it'll probably be only you. Unless someone else happens to be wandering about...

Been staring at this since Thursday and seeing nothing (well, Friday doesn't count, because I was in bed most of the day sleeping off a horrible cold/flu -- not COVID, thankfully, but still wiped me out). Looked again this afternoon and finally had the epiphany and am now firmly on shore. I'll have a hot tea with honey and lemon (throat is still a little sore from all the coughing).

I've since been informed I am not ashore, but aground on a reef. Regardless, I'm not getting underway on this deathtrap until next Thursday.

At sea. No hope for an attempt.

Good luck all.

Heading to Duke's on Sunday for a Modelo Negra draft or two.

I really don't like missing the wsj and I have a strong git feeling this is one I should get and I'll boot myself to Thursday when I find out what it is. Bit sometimes you just have to give up. I'll take a nudge if anyone wants to give one but I'm calling myself lost.

EDIT: okay. Nudged. I'm just going to say no-one should feel bad for not getting this. I may refer to these types of metas as "Mr. Left drove his car" problems in the future.

Off the reef and safely ashore thanks to the ship4u salvage team! I'm told The XWord Rabbit is going to want to hear about my ill-fated voyage on Monday...

Struggling. Just don’t see it. Anyone want to give me a hint feel free! At least I got amazing in spelling bee

I've paddled furiously but capsized on some pointy rocks...

Would love a nudge via DM please!


Update: Saved from Davey Jones' locker by some friendly nudges!

Will give nudges if you’re really stuck

Stuck!!!

Ashore with just a few hours left to go! Satisfying, though tricky for us. Had to revisit after a long break. Haven't seen this particular metanism before. H wants a Raspberry Lime Rickey, and J will have a Hot Chocolate with Heavy, Heavy Cream.

Shockingly on the beach thanks to a total team effort -- the Mrs spotted something today and I added the other part. Tricky Mike!

Since it's mid-day and dry January, I'm having Rooibos tea. Safe weekend (what's left of it) to all.

Carried ashore by a very patient @HunterX . No submission. Very logical, but too difficult for me.

Totally lost at sea here! Would love a nudge if anyone is willing

Woohoo! I finally got it!
I can cook dinner now, instead of getting on Last Call (although it's always nice to see people on zoom )

Whew!

Ashore! I pulled this one out last minute. I had all the clues since Thursday night but only parsed them correctly today. Glad to have the first meta of the New Year under my belt.

Late to the party on the beach, but here just the same, nudge free. Finally saw the connection. Nice meta.
