    It's fun. There is an option of not replying to it, if you don't want to play. This is the first time I posted something like this and someone's actually participating in it.

    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.

      OK, the answer - it rhymes well with this guess of yours.

        Nope, but I'd love to see the way you have connected it to the clues. :)

        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

          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?

              Could the both of you stop argumenting about that ? This is childish and has no point. Dave is the CCC guy, Rajesh makes an attempt while Dave is on vacation. I do not think that the Lounge is flood under CCCs, and if you do want to participate, ignore the post.

                    I've added the final clue. Put the clues together and that must get you to solve it. :)

                      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

                            Well done ! I think the CCC misses an hint on the complete answer, I see nothing that could point on "concentration" as a whole word.

                              Pssst! Sorry about that. So, that prevented you from answering? I would guess yes, having seen the way you crack complex ones. :)

                                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.
