"AIM OF CODE IS BULL"
I wasn't sure if this was a submission or a cry of frustration.

I got one letter wrong and got STIVES as part of a message. If you look in the dictionary Chaucer used it in the Canterbury Tales and means a brothel. Thought no, must mean St Ives but of course it was neither.

I love that word! I don't think think its particularly unusual Mr Gatekeeper.
But maybe that says more for my vocabulary!

 The stalwart dictionary thwarts me yet again!
We must have the best spoken gatekeeper in world by now! I think you should rename this topic 'words needing to be in common usage' some of them are great!
"...this thread is just to remind solvers to that The Runes uses common language..."
oh yes I use a word on p11 all the time!

Hey, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought I was going to St Ives.....
Just one wrong letter can make all the difference!
