Guest Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) ...This is hard... Lot's of people use word lists that they have either built or downloaded and some good ones are available, for example: Scrabble Word Lists This is an unusual but well known word, with a consonant blend that makes it very hard to guess - it's probably best to treat this like a math / logic puzzle. I would give more clues but it's hard to come up with one that wouldn't completely give it away. (I will double check my scoring thoroughly again - just in case) Edited March 29, 2011 by WombatBreath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Well all the words on my list have been eliminated long ago so i either get to add a new word or I've screwed up again while tossing out words (likely). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) Well its pointless for me to string it out any further then - no entertainment. The word is JODHPURS (Wiki) - the trousers people wear for horse riding Maquis and Perry - can one of you QM please as I'm off to bed very soon.

Guest Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Ok, thank you. I've added it to the list. Perry, you can take it. I find it's much more fun to guess than to be the wordmaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
