I mean no disrespect, Rich. I would genuinely much rather everyone picked words in the dictionary I selected at the start. I chose the one they use on Countdown, thinking this would be the best way.

I know the term estrin and I know upleapt.

But I set out the rules and, annoyingly, I'm bound to keep to them.

But trasher is ok right? Dictionary.com link already posted

Sorry, JS.

It's Oxford Dictionary of English only.

A bit of light relief.

I'm off to bed in a minute but look forward to the bit coming up.

Good stuff so far. I always like to picture TightEnd pacing around the room trying not to explode when reading these things Smiley

MintTrav gets a -1 for being the only person to pick a 7 letter word, the strongest contestant (by virtue of being at the bottom, holding everyone else up) picked exactly the same word as the front-runner and SEVEN - SEVEN - of you chose the same word.

2 rounds to go, so if someone could recommend a good bridge-builder, now would be a great time to speak up

Unless he manages to find a word that isn't in the OED, stato will win this.

It has been done. Saw it with my own eyes just the other day when he lost to Harry Styles on telly.
