Re: 2 Word Clue
Or maybe it’s a play on one of your old ones. T is the ending of just, and your old one was ‘Mr T’, Zhou Yuelong.

If it doesn’t involve a T, I assume I’m looking for the ending of a synonym of ‘just’

Re: 2 Word Clue
UST = United Standard Time
Time is something you’d find on a watch.
You know who’s one to watch?
That’s right:
Yan Bingtao

Re: 2 Word Clue
Judd Trump?
Mr. T as in the end of Just like Prop said.
The ending could also be the bottom, as in rump. T+rump.
I’m confident on this one.

So, I was getting there, but there’s no Ts, no Js, no Ss. That just leaves a U. Which technically is at the beginning of ‘just’, not the end.
I’m utterly bamboozled!

Re: 2 Word Clue
Hmm. No idea why UST became the focus, as T is clearly in the middle of the clue, it must be a grammar thing, so let's try forcing it:
Ending Ending

Yes, you quickly got Ding out the way, but then never looked at that route again, just had to take a couple more letters off.

Holy buck, I looked at that but convinced myself I was wrong. Too preoccupied with the end of ‘just’

I did the same but because I couldn’t see where On and Yee came into it! Almost immediately after posting a clue for Kyren’s first name only

You know what, I’m just glad it’s over
Taking nothing away from LDS’s clue though. It was a good one. One of those that makes perfect sense when you see it. Lateral thinking!-

That was one of probably only about three clues that could be devised for her.
