Thanks for that Syzygy, it's a good way to present the wordplay
But,
It's not a problem of how to present the wordplay, AB has it back to me in no time at all and it's good to go. What I'm on about is the time it takes for me to prepare it, obviously, I have to get all the wordplay to AB in some sort of order that is comprehendable and anonymous and I have maybe a hundred emails with messages, tweaks, feedback and suggestions for clues, sometimes me and a setter may correspond many times before a clue is ready to go in. What I do is copy and paste all the relevant information needed and leave out all the chat and the setters personal details like real name and email address because that is confidential and not for me to share without the members consent (no offence to AB).
It takes ages to do all this and it's the only part of the JE I dislike having to do.
HOWEVER,
now I've written all that, a thought has come to me. I use the private google email only for the Joint Effort with only the regulars having access to the email address, would it be outlandish to suggest that me and AB share this email (I mean give AB the password so that access can be made by AB too for the use of the wordplay file) This would mean that AB would be privy to the same information as me but also this would maybe be an extra help to me with difficult clues where I sometimes struggle to make decisions whether part of a clue would be deemed fair, it would be great to get a second opinion sometimes because I am by no means the expert, because, believe it or not, I have had a couple of (nearly serious) disagreements with regulars (NO NAMES MENTIONED)
More feedback would be welcome on this and I do appreciate if anyone disagrees with the sharing, I will honour their decision and respect their wishes.
Thanks all, Les40
