About
In response to the clamouring of the masses (ruzuzu and gangerh), I hereby declare open the fourth almost-annual "Identify the Word(ie)(nik)".
Gangerh compèred the last edition back in 2011, and in a fiercely-fought battle including allegations of foul play, stewards' enquiries, blood-doping etc., I emerged covered in filth but triumphantly brandishing my "molotov cocktail waitress" mug.
The inaugural "Identify the Wordie" was the brainchild of uselessness, in 2007, i.e. the mists of time. The sequel, Identify the Wordie part deux saw bilby varying the theme in his inimitable drongoid way.
If you are new, you can probably garner the gist of it by reviewing those storied tourneys of yore. When you're ready, email your word to idthewordienik13 at gmail and in due course, I will publish the list of words, along with a proportionate amount of (c)red herrings, and also a list of the participants, and you can put your thinking caps on and take your best shy at a sweet tooth fairy mug of your choice.

Does a tiara count as a thinking cap?

No, a thinking cap is one of those caps with yellow, red, blue and green segments to it and a flower or whirligig sprouting from the top.

Is there a deadline for this? (So I know when to give up thinking and send in a random word)

No deadline. I'm enjoying inferring things about people based on how long they agonise over their words.

Well after the initial rush of excitement, we have run into a doldrum. Come on, hurry up and submit words before I get busy again.

Normally I would not consider joining any clamouring masses, but the Eurovision contest is over and I am looking for something new to amuse me. Shall we begin?
