@r.alph: Weird weird weird. Suddenly, when M&A clicks on a "**gruntz**" link, it just goes to an empty Down Home screen, with no puz associated with it. (This now happens on my Mac, but no such problem on my real old iPad.)
@r.alph: More bad news. When I try to upload a new runtpuz, all I get is a blank upload screen. So somethin new is definitely afoot. I tried a re-boot of my Mac, but didn't help anything.
p.s. Had to delete and repost this puppy, as it needed some TLC [Tender Luvin Corrections]. I think it might be a bit of a biter, even after these extra adjustments.
After that last pup left a hairy mess all over the house, we need a make-up puz. I personally like this fellah a lot, and hopefully it won't require any further house-breakin.
My typical comment applies here, Nice one, thanks!
I have been enjoying the steady stream of runts lately (yea, even the biters), since the runt-pen got fixed again. Tomorrow I fly to Europe for 3 weeks, so will be solving from a different time zone, when I'm not jet lagged.
@Kirk: Bon Voyage, dude. And yep, M&A has tried to catch up on runt-count, after the weeklong hiatus dealie. Plus, we'll be goin on an extended vacation trip ourselves, in June.
p.s. Looks like we'll be leavin town soon, for a 2-week+ roadtrip. M&A will try to post a "Runtpuz Rations List" of a few extra runtz, for y'all to gradually work thru, while I'm gone. Thanx.
Thanks! I am always surprised when I get a clean solve on these desperado runt puppies. @Bob, good idea to include the ration list number, otherwise I would get lost. PS, I solved #1, but skipped the blog entry.
Congratz in particular to @BobK., who's already finished up all the runtpuzs I'd left, except for the June 1st "On the Road Again" one. Spent most of today, back home at last, doin laundry and tryin to catch up on NYTPuzs -- one week down and a week to go, on those.
Dang -- after givin out extra solvequest minutes on the previous runt, only to have all the testsolvers conquer it in 4 minutes or less, this time I'm gonna ignore all my "potential biter" instincts…

Thanks! I am always surprised when I get a clean solve on these desperado runt puppies.
@Bob, good idea to include the ration list number, otherwise I would get lost.
PS, I solved #1, but skipped the blog entry.
