| 1. | Is the definition 'tr'? I don't think that works…. Also, how is the 'er' clued? | | 2. | This makes no sense at all! | | 3. | I can't see a definition here. | | 4. | Newbie? Tim Moorey's book 'How to Crack Cryptic Crosswords' is an excellent introduction and rich in examples. Good luck! | | 5. | I don't think you've quite understood how cryptic clues work. | | 6. | Is there a clue here? | | 7. | If this is from a new competitor, I'd advise them to read up about how cryptic clues should work. | | 8. | The wordplay in 1 leads to 'laughttr' and lacks a definition. If the idea of submitting a meaningless clue was an attempt to elicit laught | | 9. | I understand L=50 and Zero = Aught, but how does "tr" yield "er" plus the definition? | | 10. | What does this mean? | | 11. | Hmmmm… |
