ccc - Additional clue

[Rich Leyshon]

So, after a long battle between a short and elegant clue (but maybe too easy) or a long wordy one, I went for length (and none of this is a clue): Following a distorted representation of my surroundings, my very existence seems confused with an area beyond my vision. This will only increase! (9) Clue 2, still 9 letters! Pilfer! I am wicked and this will only increase!

universe ?

[Rich Leyshon]

Sadly, universe has only 8 letters.

Damn! I miscounted... :(

CONFUSION? Well, it's nine letters, and it's been increased since reading your clue ... :laugh:

Whilst "confusion" may be an accurate assessment, it is not the answer! (Apologies, I have to pop out soon but should be back by 10:30)

I have absolutely no idea :^)

This could be a major error on my part, the stress of doing another one might finish me off! All I can say is that, when broken down into small parts it looks do-able, but then again, it's easy when you know the answer. (And there are no subtle clues hidden in this response!)

They always look doable when you compose them - I ask a mate of mine what he thinks if I'm unsure of the doability - as I've said before composing a challenging but solvable clue is very difficult.

Sorry, no.
