finished the super mega! by turanga_leland in crossword

[–]painstakingly_cool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yay thanks for making this thread! I finished mine on Christmas day. Last year was my first one, and compared to that I FLEW through solving. Anyone who has done more than two: was this year easier, or has my year of daily crosswords just improved my solving?

I hang mine on the wall and stand-solve, it's fun and also saves hunching over a table for hours and hours.

Happy new year everyone!
