MGWCC #924 — Friday, February 13th, 2026 — “You’ve Seen This One”

LAST WEEK’S RESULTS:

Title: “A Time to Chill”
Prompt: This week’s contest answer is one of the sixteen sports at the Winter Olympics in Italy, which begins today.
Answer: SKI MOUNTAINEERING, found by 376 solvers, 343 of which were solo solves

Almost a Pi-Day theme! Our four themers were BEN ROETHLISBERGER, AGE DISCRIMINATION, THE AFOREMENTIONED, and DNA FINGERPRINTING. Those all have (3,14) enumerations, so what sport are we looking for? SKI MOUNTAINEERING, which fits the bill nicely…

…So nicely, in fact, that I did this theme 4 years ago at the previous Winter Olympics!! Solvers informed me of this; no memory of it. But we can all now look forward to the 2030 incarnation of this idea in MGWCC #1,131!

THIS WEEK’S INSTRUCTIONS:

Today’s puzzle is Week 2 of 4 in February. Prompt: This puzzle’s contest answer is a well-known romantic comedy.
