And here we

And here we go.

ACCELPRRSUU

A mere 11 letters. Should be easy.

A doddle. Not scrambled at all.

ACCELPRRSUU : what the highway patrol does if you drive past them too fast

Cheers, Mike.

I have made this letter longer than usual because I lack the time to make it shorter ...

*blink at einsteinians* I

*blink at einsteinians* I wonder how often something has to happen before a word is invented for it.

Laccurpurse - another way of saying you spilled nail varnish on your money receptacle.

*long stare* Must be less uncommon than I would have thought.

Casculepurr - series of small vibrations emitted from feline throat regions (often accompanied by twitching) specifically during a dream state

Sucurrplace - a word summing up being in the doghouse for something

CrucPerusal - olde englishe versione ov casting one's eye over an unsolveddy questionne

Scupularcer - the path taken through the air between the point at which a small cup is flung at you and the point at which it hits you

Usurperccal - the mystical phenomenon of apparently disappearing whilst in a queue and not knowing about it till someone barges in in front of you.

edit: hold on - will number list those for you then be back... and thank you for the clue... I ignored it for these...

There we go!

1. Laccurpurse
2. Casculepurr
3. Sucurrplace
4. CrucPerusal
5. Scupularcer
6. Usurperccal

Please wait here. Further instructions could pile up at any time. Thank you.

*blink back* Interesting question.

Initial analysis:
1 - 2
2 - 3
3 - 0
4 - 4
5 - 3
6 - 1

Furthermore, you have a lot of duplicates. Four letters are right twice and one three times, whereas only two are only right once. Those more mathematically inclined than I will have figured out in their heads that this leaves four not right at all; I am just math inclined enough that after counting them, I said "duh" to myself.

Finally, there are only two examples of adjacent pairs, and none of more.

You have the first letter right twice, and the last twice.

Of the three pairs of letters that there are two of, you have one pair both right one time.

You have a string of four that is off by three.

There, that's quite a bit of information and you should now get it straight away. *beam an Anniet beam at Anniet*

The classic was the guy stopped for speeding, and the laconic copper ambles up and says "So, who do you think you are, Stirling Moss?".

And it WAS!!! They let him off .... Absolutely true.

"Listen, three eyes, don't

"Listen, three eyes, don't try to outweird me. I get stranger things than you in my breakfast cereal."

"Well just who do you think you are, Zaphod Beeblebrox or something?"

"Count the heads."

"You ARE Zaphod Beeblebrox?"

"Yeah, but don't tell anybody or they'll all want one."

"THE Zaphod Beeblebrox?"

"No, just A Zaphod Beeblebrox. Didn't you hear, I come in six packs."

*flop eyelids to half mast* Was that before he was banned for a year for dangerous driving, or after?

:)

I get confused with those stories. I thought there was an incident where someone called Nigel Mansell (but not THE Nigel Mansell - who, incidentally, *flop eyelids to half mast again* had his license revoked too, for speeding) was pulled over and got the police rather annoyed when he gave them his name, because they thought he was taking the erm... urine... and then there's the one where Ayrton Senna got pulled over and was asked if he thought he was Nigel Mansell. Perhaps the police think they're saving time by trotting out with the name of the worst offending racing driver at any given time? :)

Anyway... I'm not here for that... I'm here to say crepuscular at David, meaning active at twilight - because he said:

which was sort of true after a fashion :)
