I remember when we started this and tried the new search facility.I can only find this



Good evening All!

It was suggested by a much respected contributor to this site that we try a "reverse situation" quiz. The object is to set the answer to a cryptic clue and then try construct a clue to the word. The suggestion is that the word set is difficult to clue. One regular contributor ONLY will judge the efforts, this will be the previous week’s winner, who in turn will set the clue for the following week. A one-day timeframe is in place, (longer than this would be very difficult to cope with). The judge's decision is final (reasons given OR NOT).

Today’s word to be cryptically clued is…….
APOCALYPSE

Judgement is to close at 16.30 on Wed 6th. The winner will be announced at around about 17.00, together with the “prize” he/she will receive.

Enjoy!
Judge Mary


What was the first one?

I remember Mary was the first winner of clueless...

The original thread to win was ...I think set by Jolan, egged on by The joker, terry, Trevor probably you and others ( and me).

I remember " the boys" had been chatting about it for a. Bit...and I said something like...oh shut up and get on with it.....

AB at one point made a list of the first years winners...
