@Jafe if a white pawn moves to c4 and a black pawn is at either b4 or d4 and it's black's turn, black can respond with an en passant move, which is incidentally also (-m)en + pa's + ant (army member, as an ant is a soldier) getting (horrendou)s
@juicifer raisin toast = raisin' (proposin') + toast (to make percussion with flutes, where the flute here is a glass for wine perhaps and the percussion is the clinking of glasses)
Inspired by this. On each line to the left is the position of a word, and to the right is the "snyptic clue" not a cryptic clue (duh) for the word, along with the word's length. The 5x5x5 cube should be uniquely filled with letters. Maybe I'll add the specific rules as to how the position encodin...

But now that I think about it, there are probably several words like that that could mean both things. But that is not what is going on here.
I guess that's a common problem with short clues and short enumerations.
C4 hint: It is a ddef, but it is not a literal/figurative duality as described by msh210.
I am unhappy with the lack of thought I put into possible alternate solutions to this clue. I probably could have selected words that would have minimized the potential for alternate answers.
Well, no. I mean, if it were a literal/figurative duality (to steal your words), that wouldn't be such a good clue. I wouldn't exactly call that an alternate solution: I mean it is, but it's a weaker one.
So I think you're fine, assuming your answer is a better one than those.
According to Wikipedia, "When the CFL was formed, they were allowed to keep their long-standing names; Ottawa was frequently known as the "Eastern Riders" while Saskatchewan was referred to as either the "Western Riders" or "Green Riders". On four occasions, the two teams met in the Grey Cup (1951, 1966, 1969, and 1976)…. The Riders vs. Riders matchups were often confusing for fans. Errors were occasionally made on the official scoreboard and commentators often got confused."
Been struggling with the puzzle below and a few similar ones. Can’t seem to figure out the pattern. Could the geniuses of PSE help? Thanks!
Hmmm, looks like a good hand... I'm certain I can make a straight out of this! What should I call it? (6 2 8)
