What's with the horrific new cursor feature?
I spent a good 45 seconds pondering what the theme answers had to do with sneezing and came up empty. I don't think another 45 minutes would have helped.
@Emma That was brutal; had to come here to look at the answer key after re-checking every clue.
@Dan Eels are slippery, leading to the expression "slippery as an eel."
@john ezra It's a coincidence that this started the day of a Scrabble-themed puzzle. I encourage anyone who dislikes this new feature to e-mail <a href="mailto:nytgames@nytimes.com">nytgames@nytimes.com</a>
@Joe Horton Per Wikipedia pulis is also an acceptable plural.
What a relief that the unwanted cursor feature when solving on computers has disappeared!
Good idea for a future puzzle.
Very strange that the AV Crossword (a subscription service) had the identical them about a week ago. Identical revealer (DOUBLEORNOTHING) and two of the same themers (BLOOM/BLOSSOM and SEAL/SEAEEL).
@B What does G.E. refer to?
@Dardanus I think you get to keep your streak. It's just that today's puzzle doesn't count toward it.
@Pagrisan Who does your comment refer to?
@abelsey My problem turned out to be I had NAETO instead of NIETO.
@Twangster I was wrong ... sorry about that.
@Tom Wow, I initially thought the comment referred to a celebrity but I get it now!
@Aaron Yes, I came here to find that out.
