Cryptic #11 - Call Me Maybe

◆ · Por jasonwestley · Publicado 2022-07-18T09:55:53.209Z

Constructor's Note
This is an unthemed cryptic, the first I've written for quite a while. The title is not a hint to anything!

        Very much enjoyed this one (though I must admit I don't quite get 12A!). Never seen a clue like 5D before. Great stuff, thanks.

          I think small is S, detective is PI, which you remove from spiritual (religious).

            Exactly right!
          • jasonwestley constructor · 2022-07-18T20:45:10.951Z
            Thanks Dorian! I was quite pleased with 5D. I also hadn't seen a clue construction like that before, although it wasn't particularly challenging I don't think.

            Great word choices for all those 11s, and the surfaces were very clean. I enjoyed “reproduced” in 3D, 5D was cute (I have seen it before, but very rarely), the repeated “I” structure of 13A made me chuckle, and 1A, 7A, and 9A are my favorites. I got 9A for the wrong reason, missing the double deletion, and I didn’t know 14D was pronounced that way (or maybe I just misparsed it)!
            • jasonwestley constructor · 2022-07-21T21:35:52.135Z
              Thanks for the extensive feedback Aaron. Much appreciated. I think 14D is fine in a British accent, but I'm not sure how well it works in others!
