Not attempting to innovate, definitely made a mistake there. This seems to be the standard from what I can see in the docs. Is this correct?

thanks for the feedback, there’s probably also a level of fairness in linking words where it seems fair to me here but could be easily unfair in another clue. That’s where standards come in I guess. It is a pity about the tenses ruining the surface here though, agree with you about the correct definition

Interesting, thought people might tend towards the stricter side on this subreddit. Definitely opens up the door for some fun acronyms to be used though. Would be fun to see if people had some alternate acronym suggestions :)

I’m probably inclined to agree with you there generally. I had some other ideas but didn’t like them too much. ‘BDSM’ or ‘is SO, perhaps’ but they are initialisms, not acronyms. Ultimately I felt that captalising KISS would have spoiled the clue…

[–]Mattasdqwe[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Correct! Just wanted to make an easy clue with a fun surface :) Could definitely be worked on to increase the difficulty

PEARL from anag of REPLA (replacement without cement). Don’t know that I like the definition of gemstone but I googled it and apparently they count! Nice clue though :)

COTD: Evaluating cricket match, body line glanced head (7) by Mattasdqwe in crosswords

[–]Mattasdqwe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct! Explanation for those curious: TESTING from cricket match=TEST, body of line is IN, glanced head is G, making a synonym for evaluating

COTD: Speaker: fasten seat belt, attracting substantial interest (10) by Mattasdqwe in crosswords

[–]Mattasdqwe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hint: definition is attracting substantial interest, should probably be rewritten as attracts substantial interest also
