Okay, so this contest is going to be modeled after the Mensa invitational.  

In this contest, you have to create a new word (completely brand new word. You're making this word up - completely original. Can't be in any dictionary already) by taking a pre-existing word and either:
-Adding a letter
-Changing one letter
-Or Removing one letter

and then you have to make a definition for it, but the definition has to be related to the word...does that make sense?  Here is an example from the link:


Foreploy: Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of getting laid.

See what I mean? I think it would be fun challenge for all those wordsmiths out there.

There will be 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places, and I'm calling for about...hmm...3 judges?

Soo...let's have at it. Deadline is...hmm...let's make it December 22.

Judges
iBritt
Barnabas
UnusualOne
Emma19911

Okay, judges spot closed. hmm...I feel kind of bad since all the judges are female. So I'm adding one male judge. PM if you want to be included.

You can post up to 3 words.

"Who are you?" Sophie asked.
She received no response to this either, but felt a momentary
confusion as to whether it was she or her reflection who asked
the question.
