          This is my regular crossword stats for the month. Happy that I managed five in a row no
          Mistakes this month. Thursdays are tough. And even some Tuesdays and Wednesdays are a challenge. I don’t think I’ve missed a Monday in for ever.

          I usually don’t bother Fridays and Saturdays because they are impossible for me. (Remember I don’t use autocheck)

            The results I posted are without autocorrect.

            When I was working downtown, doing the NYT crossword was a group effort at about lunchtime.

              Minis or the regular one? Fridays and Saturdays are impossible.

                Regulars.

                ETA: If you auto-check, it doesn't count as a score.

                  Minis are extremely easy. The trick there is to beat one minute.

                        Took me 12:35 for todays - far from my fastest Monday.

                        Last week, 7:35.

                        Week before 8:21.
