[NotFinishedYet]

I think I've got the answers but I can't work out the cryptics how to get there

3d)Time left on broadcast radio, kind of short
=ephemeral

4d)Many are outdone online, i.e. topped
=crowned

Thanks

3d FM (radio) ERA (time) L (left)

[shooty]

3d time = Ep hem (sounds like FM, radio) + era + L (eft)

Nearly got No 4. but not 100% as yet.

[shooty]

That took a lot of work to be 3 mins late : (

[shooty]

Best attempt

Many = C (100) + O(ut) of done = dne (on) line = row
put C and dne (ON LINE) i.e on ROW

[kayakamina]

Shooty could you please explain why out = O ?

[ubasses]

ephem sounds like fm era (tome) l for left

[shooty]

I can't K. thats why i put best attempt : /

[bert_h]

In case shooty's not there ...

Cricketing abbreviation? Don't think it's used on its own, but "n o" is used for "not out".

[kayakamina]

I wonder if we've been given the full clue?

[bibblebub]

many = C, are = R, outdone = OWNED - net slang http://www.noslang.co...ubmit=Search&st=owned
