Great puzzle, we crushed it sub-10 even though it was a "tricky Tuesday". Great theme that we didn't unlock until the revealer, but had it all in place. VINGRHAMES? Surely that's not a word. Well done. The best part is in the bottom right corner. I could go for some DIP n DOTs!

Great Sunday solve. After this week's brutal midweek puzzles, this one was actually fun. I thought the theme was subtle but well-constructed. As a Canadian, I appreciated all the hockey trivia, and was very proud to get Cam NEELY right away. OILUP was hilariously clued; NODISC is a great error for Blu-Ray (DVD!!!); SEEDY for dive bars cracked me up; and sneaking MAYA and INCA in there, for the same clue nonetheless, was impressive. CREAMALE was our "fiddlesticks" - we tried creamADE and creamANE, probably because we call it cream SODA up der in da Great White North eh. Well done sir, great debut!

Great job Luke! That was the most fun we've had solving a puzzle in a long time. The fact that it was a Sunday was even better because we got 45 minutes of enjoyment. The fill was very entertaining and had us stopping to groan and/or laugh all the time. I thought it was Shania TWAIN but luckily I solve with my genius and cultured girlfriend who reminded me about Mark TWAIN. But it's okay because I'm the sporty one who taught her it wasn't Han SOLO, but Hope SOLO. I also always for some unknown reason confuse Resivoir Dogs and The Usual Suspects. Kaiser Soze didn't fit, so I randomly chose a Mr. Colour. MRPINK was the one that fit, go Steve Buscemi. Anyways have fun at prom, stay hydrated and make good choices. Have fun and make good choices, in that order.
