Update by Aashwina – 12th March 2017 – A bit of a subdued response this time because of caps on the number of clues and a tough word to clue ( I think ).
Voting was subdued too ( I guess many were watching results of other voting!) – 16 of our members took time to vote which means that we have a close contest again.
Thanks to all of you who participated and submitted entries. You can view the entries received in this contest here.
Here are the results of our contest..
| Setter | Clue | Votes |
| Supriya Mithal | Appendix ruptured ,toxin seen | 10 |
| Paddy Craven | Demolished No.Sixteen for extra room | 2 |
| Amrita Majumdar | Addition of one, six perhaps divided by X | 5 |
| Guruswamy Natraj | After turning sixteen, there’s no turning back | 6 |
| Ashit Hegde | Add-on player has two perfect scores , partners get a zero | 3 |
| Chaturvasi | Head of Estates gets two numbers for Mumbai suburb’s additional building | 0 |
| Ganesh Nayak | 10:10? Uproar about going over into extra time | 9 |
| Mona Sogal | Leg Room | 4 |
| Ramki Krishnan | Next criminal in row, about to get additional time | 7 |
| Viresh Ratnakar | Expert throwing up for each point in tweet from The West Wing | 2 |
Ramki’s extension for the criminal picked up 7 points for the bronze. Ganesh Nayak’s uproar means he landed 9 points ( not 10 !) and Supriya’s infected appendix got 10 points !
This clue is now in our 1ACCWC Hall of Fame. Congrats to Supriya, Ganesh and Ramki!
