Hopefully this one’s a good one for the DA Tripleversary Cryptic Powwow tomorrow.
Give us your opinions here. (No spoilers on this particular thread until Monday)
Update: And it was quality:
RC’s worries proved prescient: having DA around only leads to performance anxiety. It was only after DA had left the building that RC and I got going, and Ian (IG) got us up to speed with a few before we combined our cryptic forces and put this one to the sword.
It was a very solid one too, although the three-pronged attack was certainly welcome on a few of the curlier clues. Very much enjoy the new moniker too: ARCADIANS is a glorious anagrammatic find.
Found this week’s slow going but nearly there. 3 to go. Aiming for the poolroom so no peeking for me yet on other thread.
Yea a toughie today, I found. DA will not have much time for that second java tomorrow. No-one down there will get 3D…heck, I didn’t.
I really liked 12A, 25A, 29A, 3D, 7D, 22D and 24D!!!! A big week.
Yes, a crossie to showcase the various tricks, and some of DA’s naughtiness and fun. I didn’t get 3D either without mentoring. Liked 9A, 13A, 11D, 4d, 11A, 10 A. 4A Melburnites!
hehe. 23A Melburnians!
And don’t 21A. The 1A is just a 9A. Melbourne you can do it!
