(A restriction in oral letter.match is "no proper names or abbreviations".
This has not come up yet, but davel's "gauss" came close. By the way, has
anyone else noticed a connection between the people and the words they
guess? :>)

Right. I thought about that before I responded. I decided that he meant
the unit of measure which qualifies as a legal word.
Ok here are the results:
worst 0 (robh)
eager 0 (chelsea)
place 0 (rcurl)
hmm...

fiery 5 (robh) Congratulations!! This must set some kind of record.
for completeness:
awful 0 (rcurl)
paste 0 (remmers)
stump 0 (chelsea)
And the baton passes to robh on the 5th test word, when none of
the earlier words got any matches.

How did you do that, robh?

response 162 of 1000:

On the assumption that robh will eventually think of a 5-letter word,
I'll start guessing:
curly
|
remmers

Words can include punctuation marks now?

Punctuation marks are not allowed. You have to take Er... back, remmmers.
Dave, you realize that it will not be possible for robh *to not think
of curly*, don't you? You have undoubtedly biased his selection of a new
word. Therefore, I will cancel your curly with
level

I'm waiting for robh. I want to make sure he doesn't use test words
to decide his secret word. (Not that it would matter much.)

Geez, the one time I don't sign on to Grex every three hours, and NOW I
win?
Actually, it was my amazing psychic powers that allowed me to figure
out the word so quickly. Well, okay, I called the "Psychic Friends
Help Line" too.
And lucky for you, srw, I already thought of a word, so...

Actually "curly" was asked by davel, not me.
Also rcurl made an unsuccessful attempt to cancel davel's "curly"
and substitute "level", but robh missed that.
*My* test word is "plane"

As usual, a copy of all clues can be found in /u/robh/letter.match.
