Today's I stared at for ages and blew through hints as I just couldn't see it. And has that ugly 'cryptic crossword language' that I hate. Torturous and laboured. New puzzle only refreshes at 0900?!? Unplayable! I am outraged and my morning coffee is ruined. Edited May 13 by Chest Rockwell Quote

DiscoPistol Posted May 13 Posted May 13 (edited) Now the Non-League season is behind us I needed something to fill the hours - so I decided to try to write a Cryptic Clue instead of just getting confused by them - much harder than it looks! Minute Cryptic Clue Edited May 13 by DiscoPistol Expansion Quote
Just Some Guy Posted May 13 Posted May 13 I like the minute cryptic videos on youtube. Nice clue @DiscoPistol I'm hopeless at solving them by myself but have to tell you I got this very quickly. The definition makes it rather easy but then getting there via the word play afterwards was good fun. Quote

I did consider changing the definition but I don't mind getting the answer, and then working out how I got the answer - its the easiest way to learn I think. Quote
Members SuperBacon Posted May 18 Members Posted May 18 (edited) Always a treat to best their longest word in the daily Wordiply. It makes me feel smarter than the dictionary. My guesses: Spoiler Antidisestablishmentarianisms, ism, ists, ist and one other Edited May 18 by SuperBacon Quote
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted June 2 Paid Members Posted June 2 I got Brotato on Steam (yes, this is the third version across three platforms, the same number of versions as I own of Street Fighter 4) and managed to do a run at 100% difficulty. I've had to nudge it down on the Xbox and Switch versions, but actually managed using keyboard and mouse on Steam. Quote
DiscoPistol Posted June 3 Posted June 3 I'm not quite sure this is the right place, but I don't want to start a new thread as I don't want to come across as though I'm trying to sell something. And in the grand scheme of my life this certainly feels like a small triumph. My first Novella officially goes live on June 18th. A comedic noir set in Las Vegas, it follows a PI called Cal Chance, a man with a dubious moral compass as he tired to find a missing Elvis impersonator. I describe it as 'Part mystery, part misadventure and as dry as the desert air'. My two favourite reviews describe it as 'Easy to read. Hard to put down' and 'The best thing I've read from this author', which sounds great until you remember its my debut work 😁 If anyone is interested then please drop me a message (or reply and I'll leave the Amazon link) Anyway. I'm genuinely proud of it. Quote
