Fun one! I'm on the board at #23, which I believe is a personal MGWCC best!

That was fun. Sure to be beamed aboard soon. Back to the WSJ..........
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.

Solved via group Discord effort. Shout out to @Jeremy Smith for the key insight!

Exact opposite for me.
What the ....? Makes no sense at all.
EDIT: Okay, got it. It's done. The world moves on and very quickly forgets. ... your mileage may vary.... (This one will not be making my top 80% list)
EDIT: There I am at #83.... And, oh, look.... I earned a 10 week badge.... be still my heart....
EDIT 3: Hmm.... I solved it. But judging by the way people are describing it, I must be missing something essential. When the deadline passes I hope someone will tell me what it is.

Funny story. I was all set to enter Par for the course for the CrossHare midi contest for April but I mistakenly thought midi meant 7x 7 and not 11 x 11. Oops. Well.... Here's a complex but **small** meta on the subject of golf.

Beamed at #100! One of my favorites in recent memory, just challenging enough to be fun.

#118. I spent about ten minutes with a wrong letter. I knew it had to be wrong, but the path leading to it was very amusing.

Beamed!
Good weekend for fun and challenging, but not TOO hard, metas — with this and WSJCC. Thanks, Mike and Matt!

I missed the discord group solve (which has been an easy crutch as of late) as I started late, so I just had to figure it out on my own. Awaiting the transport to wherever we get beamed to when we solve.
