I've been dipping in and out of the world snooker finals over the last few days and it gave me an idea for a fun thread. When there are no matches in progress they ask fellow professionals to sum up a player in one word. You know, try and encapsulate their qualities, their stand out traits. It's tricky, one word doesn't leave you a lot to play with. I thought it might be a novel way of gauging the overall mood of the Aquitaine launch whilst getting people to put on their thinking caps.
So mine: intriguing

Mashup. And agree with Kickstarter too, in that you pay and then don't get the product until later.

Oversold
Time and money? I’ve spent most of mine on booze and women. The rest I just wasted…
