I solved the Sunday 7/14/2024 New York Times Daily Crossword in 44:56!
Up with jet lag. What do you expect?
I only mention this, because (spoiler alert) a forum member actually appears in 63 across.
I never expected my past starring in Cinemax After Dark features to ever come out, let alone make The NY Times…

Had to look that one up in my archive. Sept 24,2023.
Did it, no cheats.
Today’s Sunday, hard. I have it 95% done But the south east corner has me stumped. I’ll wait another day before going into auto check mode.

Today’s puzzle had what was George Lucas original surname for Luke skywalker. I have no clue. I have a few letters but not enough to even guess.
Spark? Something or another

Well I got star killer and finished the southeast corner but it turned out I had a few letters off in other clues. Sundays can be a pain. Just too damn big.

I hate it when the NYT crossword does this: Put at least two letters in the space of one square.
By the way, the clue for 6 down is "Artificial Bronze."
