PEER REVIEW 46


This is a competition for clue setters. The idea (like CLUELESS) is to set a cryptic clue to a given word or phrase. Unlike Clueless you will be judged by your peers and not the setter of the clue word.

Multiple entries are welcome. You MUST post a clue for your vote to count. One vote per contestant – please state the post number you are voting for.

The entry with the most qualifying votes wins and sets next week’s PEER REVIEW. In the event of a tie the setter chooses the winner.

There is a (roughly) one day time frame. Your clue must be posted by 5pm UK time on Friday, when voting opens. Voting closes at 9pm UK time on Friday, the winner to be announced as soon as possible afterwards.

The setter donates an online prize and reserves the right to change the rules in order to deal with unforeseen circumstances.

Feel free to include an explanation of your clue if you think it would help solver-voters.
