That just leaves BALMYRATION which must begin with A. I'll take a wild stab at AMBILANTORY?

Actually, I have a GCSE business studies exam coming up and PENETRATION pricing is business terminology I need to familiarise myself with. Therefore, that is why I have added it and not due to some of my "warped" thoughts

Thanks to all who contributed to this hyperconundrum alphabet

Another proper hyperconundrum alphabet will appear here this afternoon

Here is the first proper hyperconundrum by myself for forumites to get their teeth stuck into . There are 23 twelve letter conundrums to solve and apologies if these have been done by anyone before. There is no conundrum for X, Y and Z - for obvious reasons

N.B. Forumites are only permitted to solve a maximum of 5 hyperconundrums as this is not an individual effort and people are working to solve them as a team. Right Dinos The quota ban will be lifted on my say-so .

1. MALEMELODIES
2. AAEIOOOOPMNT
3. BRIGHTENAKAT
4. FAIREVICTION
5. NAGEROTICISM
6. BELUNYQUESTS
7. RAMPEDTALENT

18. HOTGOLDFIELD
19. TTTIIINNSOUR
20. GREEKTRADINN
21. UTEXARSEHOLE
22. OBLATESEQUIN
23. GETEXCARAVAN

The next "hyperconundrum" alphabet will be posted as soon as this one is complete with 23 thirteen letter words waiting to be solved next

No cheats please

I think the quota should only be 3, that way at least 8 people can partake .

12. LEAPFROGGING
13. COSMOPOLITAN
22. QUESTIONABLE

2. ONOMATOPOEIA
3. BREATHTAKING
23. EXTRAVAGANCE

All good so far . Well done to Ben and Joseph

Righty-o I'll stick to Joseph's suggestion (for now )

4. VERIFICATION
7. DEPARTMENTAL
13. COSMOPOLITAN

4 & 13 were both in 2 of my previous alphabets. There must be a shortage of 12 letter words!

Jason, a selection of answers to your current hyperconundrum alphabet are given directly below this paragraph. I hope I have made my intentions sufficiently clear

AROMATHERAPY
RHEUMATOLOGY (sp?)
MADEMOISELLE

TESTOSTERONE

Putting together our combined efforts these are the solutions so far. I've also added HETEROSEXUAL to the list because I previously submitted COSMOPOLITAN which Joseph had already solved.

NUTRITIONIST

All good so far. Just one to find which is very, very difficult IMO. I'm going to give the forum 2 clues

Clue 1 - it ends in two vowels
Clue 2 - it is the pluralised version of the name of a muscle

This is proving to be a difficult one to crack
NAGEROTICISM

Clue 3 ; this muscle appears in the leg

The answer to the last one...
NAGEROTICISM

is GASTROCNEMII (pl. of the leg muscle Gastrocnemius)

The next 13 letter alphabet will be revealed very shortly

Here is the third offering of my "elongated" conundrum alphabets. There are 23 thirteen letter word anagrams for the forum to solve. There is no anagrams for the letters X,Y and Z.

Cheers Charlie . Not only do they take me a long time to think of but the time it takes me to scramble them using real words is also very time consuming. But thanks for yours and Dinos' appreciation of my hard work. Much appreciated

I'll try not to disappoint next time Joseph

The best bit is that I solved it just before you stressed how hard it was and that no one would get it lol!

There must have been literally seconds in it because it was ironic that you got it just before I was about to "big-it-up" by saying how difficult it was

Well done Dinos they are all good . NATIONALISED is the one I was thinking of therefore desalination is not the word for the letter "D"
