After solving over a thousand, this was the first non rebus puzzle I’ve enjoyed so little that I just hit the reveal button halfway through… blech, this was zero fun.
I wish you’d just make good crosswords instead of whatever this convoluted nonsense is.
I hate gimmick puzzles so much. I wish there was a standard crossword daily and these could be in a separate section for the people who enjoy them. At least label them so they could be more easily skipped.
@Anonymous I’ve contacted NYT asking them to please flag non standard puzzles so I can skip them. They’re not gonna do it. I hate these gimmicks but they’re popular. I just want to do a crossword with my coffee in the morning. I don’t mind the difficulty of the standard weekend puzzles but I don’t want a crossword with multiple layers of non-crossword complexity. And you’re right, the puzzle info spoils the puzzle. We’re just going to cancel our subscription I think.
