It's not that you're the only one playing this, it's just that you've posted almost all the words that I've found, and more.

Anyway, here's a couple you've missed:

FLOPS and TRIPS

Just under the wire: wofa, I'm assuming you had optic, since you listed optics. Did you get apse?
5: ensue, scrip

Must take exception to spoil, I'm afraid. Guess I'll have to allow baptise since this is an international board. I'll try to watch for Brtispeak spellings in the future.

I sure spioled that one, didn't I.

I've been leaving out the four-letter-words as too numerous to post, in general. (Also fives as four-plus-s. Guess it's the pedant in me.) Apse is a goodie. Maybe I"ll go back and see if I can find any more good-fours.

pice

Did you say you had an eight? Or was that unscript?

Edit: ignore same. I just looked at the original thread and there it is.

I actually agree to leaving out the fours, making the fives as the beginning so that:

a) You won't have a long list of words to post
b) Makes it JUST a little tougher

I'm pretty sure there would be a LOT of threes and fours, and boy, would WE have a list to go through! haha.....
