1. State the name (and number if available) of the puzzle in the thread title. "Stuck", "Help!!!" or "Last One" aren't very useful titles.

2. Give the clue number, the clue and the number of letters and please put this number in parentheses at the end of the clue. If no number of letters is given in the puzzle, then tell us. It also helps to know if the clue is cryptic or general knowledge.

3. Tell us which letters you already have. Try to use spaces around the character you choose for missing letters as it makes it much easier to read. Also try to ensure that the letters given match the stated number of letters in the clue.

Hi jazzy
I know that you have copied these from the site, but I wonder if #3 should be modified? I prefer specifically "?" used for missing letters, with NO spaces in between - these can then be pasted directly into word-finders such as Chambers Word Wizard (see here for those that don't know it: http://www.chambers.co.uk/word-wizard

hi Chrise
That has been suggested to admin. a few times, but it is worth another mention. Made a note to do so.

Yes, thanks are appreciated but there is no need to open a new thread to do so. Just use reply.
