Woo-hoo, number 2! (And oh, now I see that I've not gotten a first solve, so close!)

#6! I'll beam up after Captain Kirk stops trembling. He had quite the experience yesterday!

Looks like a typical week 3. On the bright side, there are only 35000 ten letter words to review.

This one made me smile. More like a 3.5, in my opinion. Great puzzle, though!

Is this still page 1? Ironically there are 10 posts before me! Enjoyable and very logical puzzle!

Beam me up. Finally! Needed a bit of help and STILL stared for quite some time before seeing the way. Good one!

I'm just going to say Oh My God! Words cannot describe how in awe I am of this puzzle. It reminds me a bit of another multi, multi, multi step one a few years back, but this was brilliant. Not confirmed but really 100%. Oh, and I did not get there alone. Interestingly in the odd twist of Meta fate I gave someone my musings and they were able to solve using that, then I had to ask them what I had said!!! Who said there is no Karma....
Anyway, this is what I often feel will occur on a Monday evening ...

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!

Would love to join forces with anyone else who is yet to solve, or will also happily bounce some ideas if you have already beamed!

Enjoying a beverage at the Ten Forward. Only with the helpful nudge I got is there any way I would have gotten here. As others have said, wow.
Happy to give nudges. If you notice I've solved, please tell me about avenues you've explored so I can nudge you in the right direction and not off a cliff.

Got the idea (with a hint from Meg) while washing up our dinner dishes. And Mark says we need a new dishwasher -- pfft!
Good luck, fellow Muggles!
