AGS Cryptic

Don't judge me on my serendipitously accurate logic, but on the final product of the process.

Spoiler

  Dave Gilbert? 

"top legal official" = da, and everything follows that.

"down-under spread" = vegemite (I wouldn't have known this without listening to the Blue Cup Tools podcast )

"zero-emission" = remove the word "emit" from vegemite, and "tail-less" means take off the final "e"; thus -> vegemite

"yourself" = I

"middle of everything" = L (possibly due to the word "ALL")

"Ernie's mate" = Bert (aka the "creepy one" who's into bottle caps and pigeons.... )

One of the most satisfying and logical figurings ever for a correct answer:

Well done Baron!

NEXT!

Cheer for the bright little one occupying a vast case of a humpy mammal (18)

AGS related.

Not sure if mentioned before! I demand an update on the list

[Mandle]

Hmmmm....Well I think:

Spoiler

The "humpy mammal" is probably either a camel or a rabbit but I'm steering more towards the more obvious camel for now...

This makes me think "Camelot" will be involved somehow...

The "vast case" makes me go for "chest" which might somehow be configured into "quest" through the other parts of the puzzle...

A "bright little one" might be a candle?

A cheer could be "yay"?

[close]

All I got for now. Not really asking for feedback from the puzzle-maker so much as just throwing ideas out there.

And thanks to AnasAbdin for throwing a puzzle out there! It takes quite a bit of effort to create a puzzle and quite a bit of bravery to post it...So cheers for that mate!

Camel yes Camelot no. Everything else is no

As for throwing a puzzle, you're welcome man the bravery will remain forever after you guys kill me when knowing the answer

[Baron]

Spoiler

Blast!  The fact that camel has already been confirmed robs me of the perfect opportunity for a "humpy mammal" Ponch joke!

I'm thinking the "vast case of a humpy mammal" (ie the camel) might be a cigarette box, or since it's vast maybe a "carton".  In this context "bright little one" might be a "match", and if it is "occupying" the word "carton" I guess that means we should smush it in there....  Carmatchton?  Camatchrton?  That doesn't seem right.  Hmmmmmm....

[close]

Spoiler

Maybe I'm splitting this up wrong.  Maybe "cheer for the bright" might mean some sort of geek celebratory noise, while "little one" means kid, infant, or baby.  That would lead to something like Nyahaha + carbabyton or Huzzah + cainfantrton or Snap + Cartkidon or....

Hold your head still! the answer is funny but not correct

MiteWiseacreLives! ? The "mite" might mean small little one, and it is camel case, but I couldn't figure out how it matches the rest of the clue.

Correct!

Spoiler

Mite = little one
Wise = bright
acre = occupying (an area) a vast
Lives! = cheer

[close]

So is it going to be a gun or a knife?

[MiteWiseacreLives!]

Hey what the heck?  I have to try a little harder on these 

[Baron]

I thought it was you earlier, but I couldn't make the clue work.  The letter count made it pretty obvious, though.

Be careful to try all possibilities, no matter how crazy they might seem.

Hmmmmm, is it:

Prick Peckard?

[Baron]

That has 12 letters.

But, as consolation, you will be happy to know that I consider yours to be by a large margin the best guess so far. 

[Mandle]

As for the "quick bee sting":

Do the letters:

Have anything to do with it?

[Baron]

Um, well....  four of them do, kinda.  But not the way you are thinking.
