Aye, but I tried taking out words that are impossible to make out with what we have.

Apprantly, I took out create as well, though.

Um, yeah, but they were posting words that actually used the letters we have to work with

bubbajay424 · Post by **bubbajay424** » Tue Oct 03, 2006 9:32 pm

I used rhymezone as well, but I chose to exclude phrases which narrows it down by almost 3/4s. I then eliminated the ones we can't use.

did anyone take into account that it's no longer "eleven days"? it's 9...so maybe that line isn't "eleven days until my fate"

Sungkoo · Post by **Sungkoo** » Tue Oct 03, 2006 9:33 pm

voice in head cries wait

with OPSS left over

elDes · Post by **elDes** » Tue Oct 03, 2006 9:33 pm

is it possible that 'ELEVEN DAYS UNTIL MY FATE' can be anagrammed into something else?
