Flats we never finished reading (WNFR)
Sometimes a flat is solvable after reading just the first line or two. Flats we never finished reading present only that first line or two. These shortened flats must be solvable based on only the information given, which often doesn’t include cuewords. This means that the clueing presented in the shortened verse must be complete.
WNFR should not be used just as a way to present bases that the composer didn’t feel inspired to versify. “Flats we never finished writing” are often uninteresting, and are likely to be underclued. Flats WNFR tend to work best with simpler bases, but the existence of WNFR as a type should not discourage composers from writing full flats on those bases.
Flats WNFR were introduced by Xemu.
