Hey Hogmaster! Here's a neat twist. Since nobody here has the faintest notion whom or what is a "arudshield" why don't you just give us a little hint?

For example, let's say that the hogwash word is "dogdays". Your hint could be ogday aysday,then those of us well versed in american pig latin could win using only our intellectual prowesses without having to resort to making up phoney definitions to trick our fellow players.

Just a suggestion.

Of course, since the relative pronoun is the subject of the dependent clause is a(n) "arudshield", themilum, smartest man in Violent County, obviously meant "who" and we can relax now and treat this as your everyday typo.

Fee Fi, Annabanana, no one says "whom" anymore!

My dissonant use of "whom" was just a slight literarary device to tip the humorless towards the lighthearted humor intended by my post to the Hogmaster.

Have you been defrocked of all humor by some priggish Yankee?
