New York Times Mini Crossword ⚔

Okay @Mert pointed out we shouldn’t pollute the Wordle so much with NYT Mini Crossword chat and he’s right isn’t he?

So here’s your thread for the game

Lol. Absolutely done by the first letter of 5 down and the end of 4 across. Heh

If there’s room for this then there’s also room for a separate thread for the whinging about it. Anyway…

Does feel a little like a small number of users deciding what is and isn’t allowed as a diversion within a thread but :man_shrugging:

I like the little jingle when you get it right, makes me feel like I’m in an episode of Frasier

I’d rather have rolling daily games in one thread rather than split apart. Seems like some mega posters just want to curate things exactly how they want rather than let things be organically.

Or rather it’s annoying to read something completely irrelevant to what the thread is about?
