Dear MGWCC Solver,

Despite my spending vast amounts of time over the past few days trying to make this cool Week 5 idea work, the crossword gods, fickle creatures that they are, had other plans for it. So I need to postpone today’s puzzle until tomorrow at noon ET.

In the meantime, give my WSJ meta from today a shot if you haven’t already:

Until soon,
