Welcome to Clueless, our informal weekly clue-setting competition.

The idea is to compose a cryptic clue to a given word.

The winner of the previous week’s competition both sets the word to be clued and judges the entries for the current week.

The judge’s decision is final; reasons may or may not be given at the judge’s discretion. It is customary for the judge to donate a virtual prize to the winner.

To be fair to others, please do not make any comments on entries until after the winner has been declared.

Multiple entries may be submitted and new competitors are particularly welcome!

Feel free to add an explanation if you feel it will help.

Due to my personal schedule I am unable to judge tomorrow, however, after a little feedback I will announce the winner as early as possible on Thursday so feel free to post your clue entries until then. I will post a deadline when I get chance to start looking at the entries and be back to name the winner ASAP after that.

This week's word to be clued is: Priggish (8)
