Gnome	7 December 2023, 22:32	That was hard! Nice job.
Titmouse	7 December 2023, 16:49	Same - and early on! And I still struggled a bit. But fun because I've been playing around with a new bit of logic I discovered a few days ago - nothing earth-shattering, but something I hadn't really considered in all these years of solving nonograms!
Smile	7 December 2023, 15:34	Welcome, new artist! Nice puzzle, and trickier than I expected without Xs.

Ghost	2 December 2023, 15:54	Cute! For those who need to build confidence solving larger puzzles with no Xs, this is a good one to start with - it practically solves itself!
Wave	1 December 2023, 20:30	I think it is...
Bull's Head	1 December 2023, 16:15	Great! I saw a saddle and a pelican and a bunch of other things at first...

Doggie	24 November 2023, 18:49	I don't time myself because I often do a puzzle for a few minutes here and there in between work. I also don't like to rush through something I'm enjoying! That's why I don't time myself on the NYT crossword every day. I treat it like a nice meal, something to be savored! :)
