This was a Tuesday puzzle!? To that I say BLEH, whatever that means.
Sorry, but this one was not fun.
And now, Hannah can take another seven years off.
I know less than nothing about Mario or Luigi so this puzzle was a slog for me. I am a classic kid, however, and have NEVER heard of a "toy" weapon called a potato gun. Sorry.
@HeathieJ And to think that only 10 of her nearly 1,800 poems were published during her lifetime.
I almost folded when I came to SCORIGAMI ... but kept at it anyway.
Nice one! Once I HAd the HAng of it, it fell into place.
HAYAO? NIHAO? OHNO!
I'm skeptical of that DEF/IFEVER crossing. Is "suresies" even a thing?
Sorry, but "slog" describes this one. Capped off by spelling CASBAH with a K ???
I was a full minute longer than my average - and I didn't think it was an overly difficult puzzle. So it must have been one that made me think, which is a good thing .. I'm not even upset with being over.
About 8:00 longer than average .. but I'm blaming Eala and Jovic for such a good US Open match on TV as my distraction.
@DYT I agree with you totally - rebuses should have worked and would have been completely fair.
@NYer in Exile I am right there with you. I had very little enjoyment trying to figure out this puzzle and solve it.
No idea how I finished about 2:30 better than my average ... because for most of this puzzle I was 41 ACROSS.
Nice Monday puzzle. The last time anyone actually used the word "HARKED" in any way, spoken or written, was in 1837. I looked it up.
Pondering the clue indicating that a scholar is erudite.
This puzzle was not the least bit fun for me. Sorry.
@Nanorama Same with me. I had the correct letters in the rebus but was told "UMNO" and had to try different ways to solve even with right letters. Boo hoo.
In recent memory, I cannot recall a daily puzzle I have enjoyed less than this one. Sorry.
Yes, it's "upsy". And "yowls"? No.
Amazing debut. And I was 1:30 longer than average so I should be upset .. but rather in a little awe.
SUMTO is "total"? Please.
I finished in less than my average ... and still don't get it.
@Darren You're not alone. I hated it, too ... and this was a Wednesday? Not hardly.
More than a minute longer than my usual Monday. I got done in by "ASHAME" (rare archaic word) and "MOMBASA".
@DawnW Like shutting down for no reason?
@Steve L You're right.GO HAM is awful.
@Kyla Someone needs to let The Clash know 🎵.
