Yes, and the measure of how well you hold them is called instability.

State a trap with key communication (9)
State = Mess
a trap = a gin
key = g
Communication = messaging

TELEGRAPH?
Just a guess based on "key communication" and STATE == TELL, but I don't think it's right.

We don't normally hint the CCC - the idea is that the clue is the hint - but what the heck - I never could get the hang of Thursdays.

I like to drop a hint if people are really struggling.
Either an alternative clue for the same answer or just a general push towards how the clue is broken between definition/wordplay. Nothing to give it away but enough to reduce the chances of having the same person setting it for days on end.

That's why I added the "three day rollback" to the original rules.

I think the two can work perfectly well together.
A hint here might have been something like "the state is not in America" - not a giveaway by any stretch but one that would have got me (and I dare say,one or two others) away from being stuck with the idea that it was going to start with a two letter U.S. state abbreviation.

BTW ... it's four hours, not three. Posting late doesn't shorten the time, just move the end time.
