Best fluke

[Charlie Reams]

It's always fun when you make up a random word and it turns out to be in. Here's my favourite example.

[Matt Morrison]

I did one of these just yesterday.

[Paul Howe]

Needed this one to fend off a disturbingly adept prune.

I speak about 4 words of Dutch, one of which is hemel as I come from Hemel Hempstead. I believe it means heaven.

[Chris Davies]

I completely made up this word.

[Liam Tiernan]

I completely made up this word.

Why no pencil? No longer alternative is given.

[Ryan Taylor]

I completely made up this word.

Why no pencil? No longer alternative is given.

Because it's a conundrum.

[Liam Tiernan]

Because it's a conundrum.

I'll have to start playing more variants.

[Gavin Chipper]

I remember Paul Gallen getting SUNDRIES thinking of SUN-DRIES. That was a bit jammy.

[Kirk Bevins]

I remember Paul Gallen getting SUNDRIES thinking of SUN-DRIES. That was a bit jammy.

Not really, he just couldn't pronounce it.

[Matt Morrison]

I had a shocking round recently, and couldn't see anything apart from COPIES. I hadn't seen it in terms of "copies of a document" though, I was declaring it as the plural of COPY (pronounced koh-pee), thinking a copy was some sort of animal or something.

That's not how I remember it.

[Charlie Reams]

I completely made up this word.

I remember letting that through on the basis that I liked it, rather than that I thought it was remotely fair. Certainly not the only example of that, either.

Was this http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/COYPUS what you were thinking of?

Haha, no, I wish it was that sensible. I've never heard of a COYPUS before as far as I know, and I was literally hoping it would mean something, the animal thing was pure optimistic speculation.

[Kirk Bevins]

I've never heard of a COYPUS before as far as I know,

Lol...you mean a COYPU.

[Marc Meakin]

Round 3 in this one was my most memorable http://www.apterous.org/viewgame.php?game=172017

haha see, dumb as fuck. every other word is a guess for me!

[Kai Laddiman]

This was a hopeless guess which amazingly worked. And then Velvet went and buzzed in on 0.7 seconds - talk about being HEARTLESS...

[Ian Volante]

Utterly stuck for a 5:

[JackHurst]

My first and only ever successful guess at a hyper conundrum/

[Dinos Sfyris]

My first and only ever successful guess at a hyper conundrum/

This is mine. Came up in a hyperunlimited duel and only meself, Paul Howe and Raccoon got it. I remember seeing APPARA- thinking that seems like a plausible prefix before thinking "Nope the rest of the letters don't make any sense I'll just pop them in in a semi-random order!"

[Dinos Sfyris]

Here I picked S for NARIYALS and nearly missed the 9! Also I got a new goatblitz personal best, although I don't think I'dve ever seen that we could've picked RAUWOLFIA! http://www.apterous.org/viewgame.php?game=245407

edit: I should point out it has the letter pickers the wrong way round

[James Robinson]

Easily the biggest fluke of all time.

An idiot like me leading Chris Davies from start to finish:

I had no idea that the big multiplication would be any good at all.

When I used to play bullet numbers all the time, I often took massive guesses that put me in the right place. I might have a look for some good ones.
