New York Times Mini Crossword ⚔

Agreed. It’s also similarly easy to post in a separate thread to avoid others having to scroll past. Either way, it’s going to waste a few seconds of a group of user’s time. :man_shrugging: At least this way it is more opt in than opt out. It’s not the end of the world either way.

Let’s not lose sight of the fact that Theo was trying to do a nice helpful thing, as is his wont.

Where else is it happening?

I think I did that three times, so hardly ages, but okay. Not sure I’d define it as trolling either but that’s fine.

I don’t mind the crossword, I’ve done it a number of times.

I reckon that the Wordle thread should have become the all-in-one Puzzle thread, via a retitle, rather than the exclusive Wordle thread. That’s my take, because now I’m posting my NYT Mini in here, and the Wordle and the Nerdle in there. Some of them are going to fall away, so it makes sense to make a Daily Puzzle Thread, not three separate threads.

Anyway.

1.36 for me today; I think I am getting into the way of things if I can get the Snoring Clue in one, so that’s something.

What was the theme?

Have had the wordle thread muted for ages so would never have known about this other puzzle if it wasn’t for this new thread. How handy!

0:43 on 2022-01-28. Possibly a personal record.

Don’t mind the separate thread thing. Wordle as a game is still good but the thread’s of dwindling/marginal interest.

Plenty of scope for a daily rage about some clue or other in here for a good while yet, though.

Did this sneakily at work once and fucking panicked when I realised the computer volume was at full blast and that little jazzy piano was just blaring
