Same as the other games, but with even bigger, better words!

The rules are simple. Make a new word by switching two letters from the previous one.

No scrambles this time either, this is the real thing. A scrambled solution would be toasted to storage. A correct solution would be toasted to blasted.

I think you've managed to win the game! I've been trying to think of something for about 40 minutes and I'm still drawing a blank... I'll be really embarrassed if someone comes up with an obvious answer.

Maybe there should be a rule allowing us to choose the previous one if and only if 24 hours (or something) pass without a response?

On-topic...I have to pass on that one, no idea what to do. My best idea was ie->o and r->l to make vowels, but I imagine that breaks the rules (even though ie is one sound in the word).

Well, if "spoters" is a word, it can become "setters", and then that can become "seekers". And if "spoters" isn't a word, then "spewers" can go straight to "seekers".

So, either way,

seekers
