Never heard of it. On to the next!

I see I have found your weakness, 7 letter words beginning with PE. :D

Ok, one to test a certain amount of verbosity

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (11 letters)

I suppose everyone has an Achilles heel.

Goddammit it feels like these are words like should be getting. One of my main man, Georges Perec (I spelled it right, no accent) used to complain all the time about how was such a crossword wiz but sucked at Scrabble....I don't know but I never was good at Scrabble even though probably should have been.

Lord knows enough loser assholes at school tried to play all the time. Just socially, but I should have been winning! So mad!

Sorry. This thread didn't show up on my watchlist.

I never knew there were so many 11 letter words beginning with 'C' - nice one EH, over to you.

That was a good one. One of these days I'll spend some time with my Funk & Wagnall's and win one -- then u will feel my wrath and I will stump you people. I agree congratulations are in order to EH for getting 'er done. My time is going to come! One of these days!

Thanks, CIAS! I should've been wearing my Starfleet hat the whole time. I might've guessed that sooner.

Jizzelbin, why don't you start the next round? You may take my turn.

Nice of you to invite. Honestly, I can't promise to do all the book-keeping needed in a timely manner, and I'd probably open up a Bill Gaddis novel and deliberately find about the nastiest word I could, and then spend the rest of the time berating everyone for being illiterate, even though I certainly am no Alex Trebek. Probably better I not be the game master.

C'mon, you can do it! Please?

Go ahead, Egon. You've earned it! No, seriously, I would just forget to do all that nice listing of the guessed words, and that kind of makes this game fun.

Plus, trust me, I would probably be somewhat an asshole about it, and I've been instructed to leave the insults out of the game threads, which I respect, so I probably shouldn't.

Oh yeah, sorry about calling you "donkey boy" -- but it's not insulting if you love the "cinema" of Robert Bresson as I do.

Oh, all right.
