Effin and blind
[MF] I don't think so - but I feel we're stuck with the single "F" which means:
The story Sofa
_ F _ _ _ _ _ A L
Guessed incorrectly: E, R
Guessed but still to be decided: T, O
Incorrect word guess: Officinal [MF] Is that a real word or perhaps a handy office urinal for executive stress relief?
State of hungness:

Officinal?
[blamelewis] I have one -- It's the box that Windows 2000 Advanced Server came in. :)
Aligning my Wah with the cosmic consciousness...
My babula-sense tells me that if there is only one A and only one F then I don't know what the word is. Especially if there's no E.
In that case...
Projoy's guess at an extra F must leave us with a new...
[blame] Yes, that's right
[blame] Yes, that's right
None
It's risky, but I feel certain this is an awkward one. I'm not going to suggest 'Q': although I do feel there's one in there I'd like to get your views first. A 'Q' would suggest a 'U' unless it has some Arabic origin.
ILOVEU
Yes, there is a U, and it goes in that place you're thinking of, too. I'll let you do the honours.
Still confused
Er - as Projoy set this, and he reckons there should be two Fs then surely there are two Fs - and in any case restating an already used letter should not incur a penalty - as all instances of the letter should be shown by the hangman at the time.
BTW Officinal certainly is a valid word, concerned with medicines, especially those that are kept ready for dispensing.

valid words
Very amused to hear Ian Wright, commenting on a football match, describe the play as "effervescent, is that a word?"
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
[IS,P!] Barry Cryer playing Scrabble:- "I've got A-W... O-R-D... is that a word?"
[Blob] But Projoy didn't set this, he just wrote out 9 dashes. The Collective Consciousness set it, and only the Collective Consciousness knows what it is. As for the extra F - well, the hangman didn't show two Fs immediately, and I thought the hangman's decision was final (otherwise we could just be changing letters around, or adding and discarding them, which would be a very different, if better, game). Anyway, no possible word exists in the language, even if there are two Fs. Unless it's something like the famed Astaire/Rogers vehicle, "O Funny Gal!"

I play... u. I'll leave the Q for anyone daring enough.
None
Does the Collective Consciousness consider that OFTOQUIAL might be a word?
