It has me 0:29 to complete today’s NYT Mini.
Another quick fix, so I’m glad about that. I got ROBOT, AMORE (thanks to the Dean Martin song), and TRYST on my first run through of the Across clues. These helped me fill in the gaps for all the Down clues.
I thought 2 Down had something to do with the auction before I saw the letters already filled in, and I probably wouldn’t have thought of EBONY otherwise. Plus, I thought 4 Down was a clever clue.
