Walkthrough for yesterday's Supersized Aqre: https://youtu.be/KfsCCz0rmY8
Waking up on a Sunday morning, even 2 hours of lying down sometimes fails to produce any sort of puzzling (or getting-out-of-bed) motivation. So I turn my trusty assistant chat-GPT 3.5 to produce something. This is what I receive...
A B C D E
/ 1 2 3 4 5 \
/ F G H I J K \
| L M N O P Q R |
\ S T U V W X /
\ Y Z 1 2 /
\ 3 4 /Rules:
1. Each letter (A to X) and number (1 to 4) must appear exactly once in the grid.
...
Perfect. That's exactly the push I needed.
Today's puzzle is a Slitherlink (Big Cells)!
Rules: Connect some pairs of orthogonally adjacent dots to form a single non-intersecting loop. Clues represent the number of edges drawn surrounding the clue. Some cells in the grid are larger than regular cells (and can have more than 4 edges).
Solving Note: In the selected mode, you can right click to mark edges with "x" markings. You may find it helpful to use these liberally.

And all solvers who complete the puzzle will be rewarded with an Quadrupled Quail-Plover 🐦
