As of today I'm offering 'broom services'

And to think, I always thought they were saying "room service" when they knocked the hotel room door.

It seems they were quite swept up in the topic.

hams reprogrammed stuck software automaton (8)
- Find a short word that substitutes for "software automaton".
- Twitter is full of #1. And if "software automaton" must be substituted, what does that tell you about hams? (Sorry, I just realized that this wouldn't necessarily be true, but it's a hint.)

Maybe setting cryptic clues isn't for you Greg

This actually made me laugh out loud

Yes, coming from Mr. Hendecad.

It was only because no one had heard of the word

Well,
For what it's worth... I solved your simple hendecad anagram clue. I didn't post the answer because I don't have time to be the daily setter. If you guys remove that requirement I would participate more.
Best Wishes,

I thought it was simple and was surprised nobody solved it - but you did !

Well,
I actually cheated and used a piece of software to generate anagrams and permutations of the head and tail of your clue. Apparently the word 'hendecad' is not in most dictionaries. I had to load an unabridged dictionary to get the answer.

I thought mine was simple too! It very much follows the pattern of yours from yesterday.
I will add another hint.
|
|

|

It was a good clue. Don't let them get to you. Your choice of 'reprogrammed' for the anagram indicator caused me to initially get stuck on HAM radio circuitry and associated jargon.

I'm pretty thick-skinned, but thanks. I actually thought it was good too, because it fit in with CP, much like my last one. I'd have gotten stuck on the technical angles too, but I have to stop with this risque stuff before everyone catches on to my shtick. I have another one that would result in a lifetime ban.
If you want to play but don't have time to set the next one, I'm sure you'll get volunteers.

MACHINES?
It sort of works for AUTOMATON (if pluralized) and it's got HAMS in it fro an anagram, but NICE / CINE I can't figure out ...

It's a 4-hour window, so you need to suffer for another 45 minutes. A good character builder!
