    An opposing argument to deny a proposal with a penny and relation between things in the North (13) Sounds tough, but is all pretty straight forward. Well, almost. :) Clues given so far:

    • The answer starts with C and ends with N.
    • An opposing argument to deny a proposal is not "Counter", neither is it "Contro".
    • The answer is a mix of three words and a single alphabet (not necessarily in that order).
    • The answer rhymes with the word contradiction

        Excellent guess there. I see you have guessed the word "Counter" for "An opposing argument". But what about the rest of the word? Sorry, wrong guess. :)

          The correct answer has the same starting and ending alphabets as in your guess. :)

            Damn! ;) It was a bit of a guess anyway: deny a proposal = counter a = a penny = c ??? = tio north = n maybe I should have guessed at counteracting instead..!?!

            It definitely isn't definatley

              Excellent again, but a wrong guess ("Counter" does not exist in the answer). I gave a clue, the answer starts with c and ends with n. I think that this is a bit difficult? I have no idea, but I'll add more clues to the original post. :)

                  Nope. How do you explain the relationship with respect to this answer? "Contro" is a very good guess, but that is not the word. :)

                                That is my process:

                                Think -> Find all 13-letter-words having to do with the CCC -> Post guess.

                                I'm the wild guess type of guy. The usual process

                                Think -> Try to solve CCC using hints in the CCC -> Post guess

                                turned for me to be so inefficient that randomly throwing words has had more success for now. Yes, I reckon I s**k at CCC's, but I am probably missing the feminine genes it seem to require to be good at.

                                  He's doing this for weeks, so even if you woke up earlier today you are still copying. Show some fair play and discontinue your CCC's.

                                      I don't think I'm that good at the cryptic bit so I'm trying to figure out what the clue might mean instead. An opposing view (which I'm guessing the actual clue refers to) being the subject of the clue and then the rest of the clue being the cryptic part. Something like controversion would fit the meaning but I can't get it to fit into the cryptic part...

                                      It definitely isn't definatley

                                        He's doing this for weeks, so even if you woke up earlier today you are still copying. Show some fair play and discontinue your CCC's.

                                        After all, it looks like you have zero situational awareness of the Lounge. Dalek is away for a few days, and Ravel was posting CCC's daily. I posted one today. Surely, that is something that you have to make so much noise about?

                                          You are aware that the Ravel's CCC's were sent to him by Dave and that he posts them on the behalf of Dave, are you not?
