It's not my task to do that challenge, but I do not see the problem.
(Hint: I would play "Disneyland", or "city" or "fair", or whatever place
in one word to close the sentence)

I would have challenged the position with a star (but it was not mine to
do, was it ?):

Pigswill Stilton has inadequately been to another casual, though *
eerily and * spooky

The challenger always starts the next sentence unless, of course, he/she
doesn't want to.
Samantha doesn't want to rub you up the wrong way so she has offered to
let you go first ;-)

BEEP! Incorrect grammar. 'eerily' is an adverb, 'spooky' is an adjective.


Unusually

BEEP - the challenged player failed to, within one post, produce a valid 
English sentence starting with the words already played.

You lose, no matter what derivative of the English language you claim to 
be using :-P

perfectly correct. But as it is, you are in Knapp.
