I want to start with an apology for last week’s puzzle. While it is definitely solvable, it is harder – or at least more tedious – than I would prefer, especially for the first week of a puzzle set. The hint is up now, which will hopefully help anybody who got stuck on it. The solution to the November-December metapuzzle, The Missing Piece, has been posted as well. Well done to everybody who solved it, and a big thank you to all the people who solved during the last two months.
