TIGG, I'm stumped.

I can find several anagrams, but they are not plays on the definition. The only thing that comes close is "elastic" but there's no 'c' and it's too many letters. Elasto maybe? Or Lastex? But neither seem satisfactory.

Tigg, you've stumped us all!

I'm afraid you're going to have to tell us the answer. :(

It will still be your turn since no one guessed it. :P
