Could have stuck the S on MILEAGE.

I went for that but ODE3 says mass noun.Gavin Chipper wrote:Could have stuck the S on MILEAGE.
There were beaters in the PITEOUS/TOPPLES round though.

It is but it's found in the search bar. Some mass nouns are pluralisable and that's as good a reason as any for saying that this is. Especially since lots of them aren't found.Tony Atkins wrote:I went for that but ODE3 says mass noun.Gavin Chipper wrote:Could have stuck the S on MILEAGE.

Apterous allows it, but if Susie didn't get it then maybe she would not allow it.Gavin Chipper wrote:It is but it's found in the search bar.

LADRONE, however, is new in ODO and not in ODE3 nor apterous.

Nice to see Dan feeling better and only dropping 2 points all show. Not sure how Samantha could be described
as holding him back? Maybe less skilful on the letter selections?

MILEAGES was last disallowed in 2009 http://wiki.apterous.org/Episode_4927 but it was allowed
http://wiki.apterous.org/Episode_1187 in 1991. Not sure if the change to odo makes it okay again?

Nicely done again, Dan! It was only a matter of time before you got a big score like this.
PULPIEST for the round 4 beater. Also REGALISM (R1), DUENNAS (R2), FATWA (R10) and PADOUK (R11).
I had MILAGES allowed in my fourth game so I'd like to think that Susie would allow it with the extra E too, unless the dictionary definition has changed to suggest it should not be allowed. http://wiki.apterous.org/Episode_5401

Samantha is a returner, having appeared in Series 51, losing by just 10 that time. Great performance watching in the audience, Dan.
