I have no sins to take, and no answer either!

Since Griff seems to be completely occupied with chocolate eggs, I'll give it a shot:
HEAT

And you sir, have hit the bull's eye!
Your turn tomorrow. Cheers!
You have just been Sharapova'd.

Thanks I guess I'll get better started figuring out one then
|

Good luck!
(They are harder than they look...or at least I find them easier to answer than set)

Yep, that's what I'd anticipated English being a foreign language doesn't make it easier but I guess I'll be able to come up with something. Thanks!

BTW, what does WSOCCC mean? God beware I post something tomorrow that actually doesn't comply with the rules!
|

OMG, it would've been so much easier if I hadn't asked! (CC's are pretty unknown here.)

You don't get Cryptic Crosswords in Germany?
I guess that makes some sense, since IIRC German encourages you to make one very long word out of shorter ones!
Donau-dampfschiffahrts-elektrizitäten-haupt-betriebswerk-bau-unterbeamten-gesellschaft (80) would get a little easy...

Yeah, we're good at that, especially our bureaucrats
The closest thing to a CC that I knew before are paraphrases. To clear up my understanding: Is the CCC given by Agent_007 today a true one? After reading up on it, I can't see how it would fit the "official" definition.

Yes:
There's a warmness in the atmosphere (4)
There's a warmness in tHE ATmosphere (4)
The "IN" implies (in this case) that the solution is inside the clue, and the first part tells you what to look for.

Thank you. Looks like my work is cut out for today
|

On a sidenote ...
... I derived another solution: There's a warmness in the atmosphere (4)
athe -> (scramble) -> heat ... my qustion is this (I don't do CCC's apart from voayering CP): are they equally good or is my thinking wrong in regard to description?

To use that solution, you'd need to add clues to remove the MOSP and RE - you can't just have a clue where you select four letters at random!
Have a look here: http://www.ukpuzzle.com/crypticxwordguide.htm[^] - it gives a (basic!) guide to solving them, which should help explain the structure and rules they need to observe.

I see what you mean, but in my (substandard) line of CCC thinking, I didn't think of "the" as part of the [in] clause, therefore my "solution" ... thanks for the tip anyway

Is like asking, do you like the CP user name with "Member ...." or the real user name?

Superb answer

Chalk and cheese; but personally I prefer pies.

It doesn't matter... as long as it makes use of CListCtrl
M.D.V.
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
