Welcome to...
benchen71's Metas on a Tuesday (MOAT)
Can you storm the castle by getting across the MOAT? I can't really say too much about this without giving the game away, so I won't. Enjoy!
PM me with your submissions or submit on Crosshare. Either way, I'll compile a list of those who successfully solve the meta.

I think I've found my way past the alligators. One small quibble, though.

The prompt appears on the PDF file: "The answer to the meta is a noun."

Across the MOAT and storming the castle! Just enough misdirection in the meta to make it interesting. I learned something new today.

Breached the castle! And agree with comments above, inc that I learned a few new things from it.

Stopped to smell the flowers on my way to storming the castle.
This may be one of your nicest so far. No extras; nor anything essential overly obfuscated. Everything there and simple presented; just enough.

Got it! Had to look up a few things due to my utter lack of knowledge of any (modern) sci-fi lit/flicks, but enjoyed the journey!

Crossed the crocodile-infested moat and breached the castle walls. Confirmed on Crosshare. Thanks, Ben!

I got it, though my first guess was wrong. Tried lots of wrong paths.
