For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.My apologies for the oversight, NACW! Here are the crucial instructions accompanying this crossword:
Solvers must highlight three groups each of six contiguous cells, showing all but the final stage of a CAREER, completing it by filling the otherwise empty bottom row, so creating new words from crossing entries. One answer must be entered as a jumbled non-word to reveal a location, and a second needs some letters replacing by a representation. Numbers count cells used by answers. In each of four clues, the wordplay fails to give a consecutive pair of letters in its answer; each pair must be removed from one of four other clues before solving. The four pairs may be ordered to identify the adviser who suggested the CAREER. Chambers Dictionary ( 2016 ) is recommended.
Thanks, NMA. I am not a fan of the RTE clues, they are sometimes nonsensical!
This EV wasn't particularly difficult, but the various bits and pieces going on made it... slightly time-consuming. I know Matakari isn't a fan of missing or extra letters, so I thought the complicated bits with those would put him off this one!
