As you've probably seen in the CCC thread for today I would like your thoughts on extending the CCC whereby Fridays winner gets to set a theme for the next 5 CCC's. I inadvertently started a spinner them this week which was latched onto resulting in a whole week of spinner based clues which I thought was interesting - thoughts / ideas folks !

It could be fun - but it could make it harder for some to set the next question (it's difficult enough to get a "Good 'un" without extra constraints) while making the solution simpler.
How about a trial? One week only, starting next week to see how it goes?

Good idea, but I think it could help having a theme I find the hardest thing is thinking of a basis for a clue, as someone mentioned earlier though, maybe set the first clue and carry the theme on for the rest of the week

Im up for trying it (or at least watching the rest of you play  ), couple of questions though...
1. Will the first clue state what the theme is at time of posting, or after solving?
2. Will knowing the theme make solving the rest of the week too easy?

To the few of us that still do the CCC they are all too easy

Hold on!
Have you submitted the correct request forms to the CCCCC?
Well, what letters did you think "Change Committee" started with?

Well done - I thought I'd stick with the "spinner theme" we seem to have going, but put a "twist" on it ...

Just out of interest, what did you propose last time?
|
|

That we have a rota, with each setter getting a whole week, rather than a single day.
Apathy ruled ...

Not a bad idea.
Do we state a theme or just let it flow from Monday's clue?
e.g. do we have:
CCC Monday
Theme: "spinner"
Clue: Caution, sounds like a spinner! (4)
CCC Tuesday
Clue: Another spinner clue (x)
or
CCC Monday
Clue: Caution, sounds like a spinner! (4)
CCC Tuesday
Clue: Another clue that's either related to caution, spinner or warn (x)
CCC Wednesday
Clue: Another clue that's either related to caution, spinner or warn regardless of Tuesday's clue (x)
