Hey @Mistreil while we’re waiting for all of this to finish up, do you want to give us another puzzle/brain teaser to solve? It doesn’t have to be for points, just for fun!!!!

While I'd love to, I won't have time (or brainpower) to throw anything together!

On the other hand, you're free to make something for people (and me) to suffer through!
If you do, I'll do it when I'm free from my work suffering, so... next week. ish.

Much to my surprise, as soon as I started with A it worked. That's when I thought maybe it was Autumn Leaf, but apparently that was just a coincidence.

This is the answer I arrived at too!!! A happy accident for the both of us I guess. I was going to ask what autumn leaf had to do with AC since it's called maple leaf, but now I know I was just off. I don't think I would have ever actually solved Mitten Crab.

Bet. First to post complete puzzle (in a spoiler!) gets 10tbt cause I'm broke. I tried to do some easy and some harder questions (hopefully it is sufficient to occupy y'all for a little while at least) but they're all TBT related.
