Duckdown
From Countdown
Duckdown is a variant played on Apterous.
Similarly to spoilage, the object is to play the longest word featuring none of the letters in the selection.
Nick Hewer played a set-up version of Duckdown (merely looking for lots of words, rather than a long word) in Episode 7469, with the round set up by Paul Zenon. In the event, Zenon counted up to five, and Hewer extended it to 12.
