| 1. | Too unfair – A ECHO is given indirectly, and these letters must be plucked from different points in the phrase before making an anagram | | 2. | The indirect anagram subtraction is a cryptic step too far. Unsolvable in my view. | | 3. | AECHO* (anagrammed) is required not just A ECHO, also implying a pre-anag substition which is regarded as unfair. | | 4. | I am surprised to see an indirect anagram in this competition. | | 5. | 'Performance' not adequate as anagrind; also echo indirectly anagrammed |
