Post enlightenment worked! Finally got the last step.
Whew, and wow!

If you want help with a meta, feel free to PM me. The more specific you are about what you have and what you want, the more likely I can help without spoiling.
(And if I help you win a mug, I’ll be especially delighted.)

Group solve on discord got me to the shore. Looking forward to an Old Fashioned later this evening.
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta!

Ashore with a nudge. Mind blown. The most dazzling meta I’ve seen in a long time!

If I’ve solved and you need a nudge, you can PM me. Happy to pay it forward.

Ashore. My niece walked up and suggested something to look at, and we followed it. It worked.

I feel like I have first step but can't go further. I welcome an affirmation/nudge.

Ashore after a nudge, a confirmation, and sleeping on the final step. Nice one, though well beyond my solo skills.

Solved! (...with the help of a co-solver...one of us saw the first part, and one of us saw the second part.) Whew.

Is there really a limit?? There shouldn’t be a limit. If you’ve never been on a Muggle zoom, you should try it. It’s very entertaining and fun! Plus you can get some meta help. Zooming Muggles are super friendly!Bob cruise director wrote: ↑Fri Nov 10, 2023 8:07 amThe 4:30 zoom call may reach the limit of 100 participants.

ASHORE4US! How did Mr. Berry come up with such an amazing mechanism? We finally got it after several cups of coffee and some persistent sleuthing.
We'll celebrate today with a nice pub lunch with a fire in the fireplace, a turkey BLT on toast, and a Smithwicks Red Ale! Cheers!

Done and done. 'Twasn't a rabbit hole after all.
If I'm around, I am willing to join the Muggle Zoom room at other times to lend a hand to those in need.

I have what MIGHT be a first step. Only it does not work for all of what I assume the themers to be.
