Hyperconundrum alphabet!
Jason seems to have all the bases covered with standard conundrum alphabets so this week I thought I'd try something a little different. 12 letter conundrums! As usual there's one for each letter of the alphabet (apart from X - I couldnt think of one) Alas since I dont have an ODE2r let me know if any are invalid (but they're all pretty safe) I normally check them on CountMax, but obviously I couldnt with these as the max solution it will allow is 9. Anyway have fun with this variation and let me know what you think.

Re: Hyperconundrum alphabet!
Could 21 be BICENTENNEAL (sp?)
Re: Hyperconundrum alphabet!
16 is WISECRACKING. I thought I hade HONDODMURDER with rhododendrum, but then I realised the flower ends in -dron. Ah well.

Re: Hyperconundrum alphabet!
Sorry Paul, #16 only has 1 I and 2 S's. I think you're right though and Dinos may have said the wrong letters .Paul Howe wrote:16 is WISECRACKING. I thought I hade HONDODMURDER with rhododendrum, but then I realised the flower ends in -dron. Ah well.
Re: Hyperconundrum alphabet!
Ah so it does. Not my greatest effort ever.

Re: Hyperconundrum alphabet!
Oops! It should have been SCREWGINRACK. WISECRACKING is correct, and also I thought it was RHODODENDRUM

Re: Hyperconundrum alphabet!
Just to finish off the alphabet completely, I have had a look in the ODE2R and there is one 12-letter word beginning with 'X' .
