Welcome to the new format of [email protected]! Instead of the daily post focusing on the NYT crossword like on /r/crossword, we’re now open to discussion for all daily crosswords.
I request using Lemmy’s spoiler function if you plan on discussing answers - to avoid spoiling the crossword for others. It’s not something I plan on enforcing, just want everyone to extend courtesy to others. For those checking the comments, some spoilers may slip by, so please proceed into the comments with caution.
I aim to post these at 10 PM EST the day before, in line with the current post times.

Nyt 35s, included a typo so yay
- NYT: 0:23
- LA Times: x:xx - Revealed a letter. The 1A clue was kinda deceptive. Still got Reddit brain, I guess 😅
- USA Today: 0:23 yet again. Could’ve been faster had I not typo’d.
- WaPo: 1:53 - Brute forced my way through it.
- Telegraph: 0:39 - They really need to fix the UX of their puzzles. So annoying.
- Modern Crossword: 5:09 Brutal one today. Love the constructor commentary on it as usual.
NYT: 0:42, so easy lately.
30s on this one, couldn’t figure out 1 across until the end
Welcome!
Great score. Love seeing the Mini timings get competitive.
Thanks! 😁
- NYT: I was stuck on the NE and SE corners for the longest time. Figured out NE, then eventually figured out SE as well. Very pleased with completing the solve. Unfortunately the timer glitched out while moving from one device to the other, so it says 1:51:01 as my solve time, when in actuality its around 45 minutes.
Didn’t have time to complete any other crosswords.
