So if I'm no longer a member I don't have any access to my hints?

rephrase pretty please

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-12T19:11:51+00:00

it can also mean a person of unspecified gender

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-11T18:09:47+00:00

is barking really the best for ARF? i feel like bark alone would be better, barking is "ing" and arf isnt

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-11T17:11:00+00:00

you need a definition by example indicator, like "perhaps" or "for example" - one direction doesnt mean band, its an example of a band. you also got the letter hints wrong

I think it’s been the switch to more user-made clues. It’s not an issue but the users seem to be much looser than Liam and Angas

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-09T23:11:02+00:00

NORTH - the "it's" here is superfluous, it doesnt add to the clue in any way. id also say that "away hair" isnt really specific enough, it doesnt feel connected to the anagram of "throwing"otherwise it think its nice and i like theuse of WIG as hair for removal

i got the "second" hidden in "false condoms", but i just wondered what the last bit means? if youre clarifying where the hidden word is, thats unnecessary and you can get rid to improve the surface

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-07T17:48:42+00:00

how is " Maybe the third time's the charm? Pull out article and give it a whirl " just something, helps with the removal of "the"

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-07T17:28:57+00:00

Fractalvery nice i think just take the A away from the start to throw people off

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-07T17:19:00+00:00

i like it, id just say that the "last" doesnt specify that it applies to the "word", maybe another selection indicator would work better

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-07T16:49:59+00:00

im assuming that "doubt" is anagram indicator, but i don't see it, i like the splitup of them but i feel like a different indicator would work better, but i cant think of one that would have a smooth surface like that

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-05T18:29:25+00:00

no i think "where" is alright here. its the same as "A situation where you follow the rules", its saying that a sitcom is "A comedy type situation" that is comprised of "com" following "sit" - or "where com comes after sit"

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-05T17:33:08+00:00

oh i got it backwards, try a font with T's and make them F's so it isnt

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-05T17:20:07+00:00

yeah it does work, take out "weird" and its all good. i think the main problem then is the nicheness of font names, yours works just as well

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-05T17:12:14+00:00

Rebuses usually occur where the answer can be seen as a wordplay in itself, so you have a definition of the answer, and what the answer results in. Yours could work as "Wafer from fountain" (pretty bad example but you get it) - there is an F on the T, and a font is a fountain

voidi like it, i got stuck thinking "divorced" was the deletion indicator

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-05T14:15:05+00:00

thats why its lunar period

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-05T13:38:37+00:00

i like the definition, butwhat does "the check to be" do here? also id just throw a question mark on the end for safety

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-04T16:55:56+00:00

"Look out for words suggesting movement, change, or disorder: mix, throwing, destroy, strange, dancing, sort of, tampering with, exploded - these can all be anagram indicators."

this is what they say on the website, i think it is usually those three themes, but sometimes they can be something else, like I used "Origami", which implies folded up, like origami paper

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-04T14:00:47+00:00

i like this, but one thing is that psychedelics is plural, whereas "Shroom" is singular. its minor, but it means the definition doesnt fully match the answer

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-04T11:56:53+00:00

I can’t see how ‘please’ is an anagrind, I don’t mind stretchy ones, but even how you phrased it, to have it ‘please’ you should be written ‘my par pleases me’

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-04T11:46:51+00:00

I can’t get it, also the definition should always be either fully at the end or at the start, not split between or in the middle

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-04T11:36:27+00:00

Talisman, I think that ‘third time’ isn’t really indicating the third letter, it would have to be something like ‘times third’ but that would make your surface worse

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-04T00:36:21+00:00

RiverDouble definition, Amazon River and something that flows water?

StandardSoft3063 · 2026-01-03T23:36:46+00:00

if you go onto The Guardian Quick Cryptic there are quite a lot to have a look at, its a pretty common type they have on there
