In the dropdown, click on July 11th, 2018 - "The Maze Ruiner"

It costs $1, but it's genuinely one of the best, most cleverly constructed puzzles I've ever done. Not for beginners, but it's fantastic.

FYI. I'm doing this incrementally.

It's a little easy to get stuck since the opening clues wrap around each other and theres no way to confirm later horizontal rows.

No clue on the meta theme yet

Yeah it's very hard. But really clever, and you can kind of semi-confirm parts of the rows by estimating where some of the maze clues fall.

**********SPOILER ALERT***********

so i cheated a little with some of the proper nouns. grid is complete and i'm stuck with the maze runner's path

it's something HEDGE FUND related i think

for the maze runner's path i have

1. hush money - HE

2. adage - DG

3. reel off - EF

4. tunes in?

5. sterile? idle?

anyone?

Correct!

Tunes in (might have been Tunes Into, can't remember): UN

Idle: D

So you need a "hedge fund" to repair everything, since the maze ruiner cut his way through the "hedge maze." Notice all the missing letters are at spots where he busted though the walls.

And yes Ben Tausig is a gigakike, but that's the world of shitlib crosswords for you

yah, it's into not in. that's where the N comes from and that's why i was having trouble.

yeah, i figured out the theme -- hedge fund to do the repairs. crazy shit.

much of the filler was way too obscure entertainment names for me. i hate xword puzzles with tons of filler based on stupid pop cultural references like minor reality tv figures. 180 theme, but it's 120 that he needed all these garbage clues to make it work. a lot of the clues were stupid low iq shit and i dont feel bad about looking up half that shit.

no, not crosswordese. puzzlers know crosswordese. it's gay but it's not a stumbling block.

it's the stupid entertainment shit: singer in fast and furious movies, social media star kicked off big brother, reinhart who plays betty on riverdale, "against interpretation" (100 yr old shitlib feminist bullshit apparently), william who wrote shrek, etc.

you cant logic any of that shit out. the grid is just dead if u dont know any of this shit.
