How are you today ?

Not too bad - slightly fuzzy in the head, but otherwise OK.
Thank you for asking!

Am I just being impatient?

I am holding a contest. I am thinking of a number between 1 and 1,000,000.

Now that’s using your imagination!
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

Apologies. We still haven't tracked down that bug. As soon as we do the contests will be back!
Thanks,

And when you do track it down, I still want to know who caused it and how they were punished!

Sounds a bit extreme!

Oh, I didn't realize there were technical difficulties. I'll stand by.

incomprehensible (def)
razing of (anag)
bruin bruin
citadel => castle
inscrutable I didn't think it would last an hour!

It's because the solver had to solve part of the clue and then include the answer in an anagram - bit naughty that

I thought that was fairly common.

Maybe it is in Canada Greg ( I know the US has a different rule set ) but in the UK razing of bruin citadel would indicate an anagram of bruin citadel, not an anagram of bruin and a synonym for citadel.

I doubt Canada has any rules for this. But from what little I've read, I'd put you firmly in the Ximenean camp.
Many of those posted here recently required mapping one word to another. Is this only naughty for anagrams?
The solution had 11 letters. But bruin citadel has 12, so one word must be a synonym. Bruin to bear fails. So it must be a 6-letter synonym for citadel.

|
|
If you indicate that the answer is an anagram then we expect to see all the letters present in the clue. It doesn't really make sense otherwise.
