I object to the last step. It changes the pattern that has been established by the other clues and blatantly leaves part on the table. You should not end up with the answer you get.
[10] it was the best compromise I could come up with to eliminate a mildly offensive first version. I thought it was sneaky in a Tangaesque way. sorry.
[12] I'll take partial blame for redirecting you from your original method... though there's no telling whether you'd have received any less flack for that. lol

I end up with 8 letters, though I think it's supposed to be 9. And neither works.

[8] Yes, but that's the point. None of the other clues went by sound, although they could have. Why did this one break the pattern?

[9] You have the correct number of letters

I thought I did this right, but it's not going through. Hrm. I also have 8 letters, but it also feels wrong. I'm missing something.

For those still struggling... keep in mind that none of the clues have letters out of order... and I mean none of 'em.

Going step by step still gives adamanc

[21] Just get rid of "em", not "e" and "m".

I'm still doing something wrong, can't figure out what.

I can say I'm not getting adamanc, though. I might be interpreting one clue far too literally.

Ah, got it. I was following the third clue way too literally.
