Nice one from Pete, as always! My "first on the board" streak has reached 2 between this and last week's MGWCC!

Keep it up!

On the board at 15. A rare (for me) quick solve on the MMMM. Pete usually gets me good on these.

Tough (but fun) grid! Meta itself fell pretty quickly afterwards.

Got it. Went down a handful of rabbit holes before finally seeing it. Very clever!

Solved. This should provide great encouragement to all of you who have not solved; I usually struggle for days with Pete's puzzles.

On the board! I really tried to make a different mechanism work for a while, but finally happened on the right thing.
