Okay, so no underline. But would it have been so difficult to make those letters lowercase rather than caps? Or italic rather than roman? ???
@BrianQ Verklempt is the Yiddish word — unless he created a new word starting with “perk” because… coffee.
Loved this! Except it reminded me of a past puzzle many commenters have referred to, but with a frightening follow-up: 6 = Joseph = Donald 5 = Biden = Trump Is someone on it ?
@Dave Strong agree. I thought that it would have been very helpful if we could have highlighted boxes in the escape word and the associated clue would turn yellow, too. Like when revealers and themers get highlighted together. (It was super frustrating doing this on my phone.)
@Craig Nevill-Manning Yes, funny about the vowel sharing. I’m glad it was SeaTac tho because lots of us in the DC flight path “informally” call that one “National.” (Apologies for two different uses of “” so close to each other.)
@Tom For “average” did you use the mean or the median? Median might be more interesting because it would give less weight to the Thursday “anomalies”. Also, some measure of variability would be interesting to see. Do Thursdays really have a lot more “spread” in the solving times than other puzzles ? Interesting stats. Thanks for posting.
