Could you please stick to ONE thread.

It's a real pain having to browse though several pages & multiple threads.

That's why there is an Add Reply button. Please use it.

Then we won't have repeated queries about the same clue.
Added bonus: you won't have to retype the Subject line.
Remember, those who would like to help you will appreciate this.

And thank you to those who add the number, & mark the Jumbo with "cryptic" or "2".

I expect to see improvement next week.

You`re right - but you`re `on a hiding to nothing` as a new thread has been added since you wrote this one!

It seems to be worse on a weekend.

"Posting Tips" are not noticed, (or ignored) as this example from a thread posted yesterday:

""Answers to 16,18,26,51 across and 33 dn, if poss please. Many thanks.""

There were no clues, no letter count, no letters already placed. A kind person, however, provided all the answers.
Maybe the posting tips should be shown at the top of the Forum page permanently (there is a big white space there at the moment.
I'm just having a moan.

9 seperate threads for The Times today!

I guess that some people add new entries to show that they want a particular answer for a new query,feeling that if they just 'add reply' to an existing one it will be taken as an additional response to the old one.
