I have a guest Lil AVCX!
I hope you find this puzzle as satisfying to solve as it was to construct 🩵
Tonight's puzzle is a 9x15 midi from roster alum Kaye Brown (@kayebrown.bsky.social) titled "By The Numbers." We're sure this one will be a hit among viewers of a certain 2000s TV series, but we also think it'll play well with nonviewers too!

It breaks my heart to tell you that we lost our home to the Altadena fires. It’s completely gone. Thankfully, we’re safe with our dog across town, hosted by some dear friends. I never thought this would be me, but a friend made us this GFM, which I post here with incredible humility:

Gosh, my final puzzle as part of the 2024 Lil AVCX roster.

I've loved every one of them and am grateful for the growth I've experienced as a constructor throughout this year.

This is a particularly personal and special puzzle. Please enjoy 🩵
Tonight's puzzle is a 13x10 midi from roster member @kaybart.bsky.social. Its title is "Self-Propelled Flowers," and it's a reminder that the only constant is change. 🦋

I think I've felt this way each time one of my Lils has dropped, but this one really is my favorite so far. I hope you like it 😊
Tonight we're bringing you a 12x12 puzzle from roster member @kaybart.bsky.social. It's titled "It's Like Red But Not Quite." Enjoy getting the hang of its acrosses and downs! 🩷

I’m obviously always excited to share my puzzles, but I’m particularly excited about this one! I feel like I really accomplished something here 🏆🙌
Tonight we bring you an 11x10 midi from roster member @kaybart.bsky.social titled "It's All Greek to Me!" This one will test your medal – er, mettle...🥇

Love the vibes of this one. Please solve! 🧡
We've got an 11x11 midi for you from roster member @kaybart.bsky.social called "June Gloom." We hope it helps you kick off the summer in an easy (but not too easy) manner. 😎
June 3, 2024 at 12:45 AM
I made this and I rather like it! Would be delightful to have you solve it 🥰
Tonight we're (hopefully) moving up in the world with a 6x17 midi from roster member @kaybart.bsky.social. It's called "Climbing the Corporate Ladder."🪜

So excited to kick off my Lil AVCX season! Hope you like it :)
Tonight's midi from roster member @kaybart.bsky.social is an 11x11 titled, Everything's Coming Up Roses." It might make you wonder where you are for a moment, but we're sure you'll get headed in the right direction.🌹

I still feel bad but I've had worse, so I would really love to finish Jess's Browser today! And then we just play it by ear. I don't have any afternoon meetings, so we can be flexible 🤸🏼

Starting shortly!
