I somehow completely forgot the theme clue until the Spangram and after my first few words was getting increasingly annoyed that animal wasn't a word, especially since there were at least two ways to get it.

Well for all except dalmatians they act as camouflage, and even for dalmatians I'm sure the genes come from older canine species that used them as camouflage.

Working the corners was not working for me, until after I spotted the spangram. I mean, I would never have guess hyena was how that y was used.

Seemed easy at first but I just couldn't see them after the first two.

I got a funny surprise when I entered "none," asked for a hint, and then it highlighted the exact four letters I had just entered. Neon. Didn't even notice lol.

Took a few weeks(?) off from this since it wasn't in my regular rotation and it feels like it's become much harder? I feel like the spangram used to be trivial. Just me or low sample size?

I got those first four very quickly, but the last two and spangram took a bit.

No, it's definitely become tougher. I remember the first couple were really obvious.

"It's lit!"



The spangram kinda jumped out at me which honestly made it super easy. Got the left side one after the other quickly. The right side I actually was having trouble with until I saw the word fish and from there angler fish came together and with only 1 word left lantern was obvious.

Probably would have been more challenging if I didn't get the spangram so quickly.

Midnight. If you change your system clock you can go back/forwards in time to do old/new puzzles.
