I just got an idea for this, so here it goes.
In anti-hangman, you try to guess the wrong letters. If you guess a letter that is in the word, you get one mistake. You lose when you get the number of mistakes, depending on the length and amount of different letters in the word. Your goal is to try to guess every letter in the alphabet that is not in the word. If you do guess a letter that is in the word, it will fill in the blanks that have that letter.
Rules:
The number of mistakes depend on the word. You get to choose the amount, but the number has to be over 3, and there has to be a possibility of losing. For example, if your word has only 5 different letters and the amount of mistakes is 6 or more, then it would be impossible to lose.
Do not cheat, which includes:
Alright, I'll start:

# of Mistakes allowed: 6

This game is flawed because I can just play regular hangman, get all of the letters but one, know what the word is, and guess every other letter.
Sometimes it is not that easy. This word is 11 letters long (not nessisarily different letters) and you are only allowed 6 guesses.
How is someone supposed to get the entire alphabet with only six guesses?
You get a mistake when you guess a letter that is in the word. If the letter is not in the word, it is not a mistake.
Ok six mistakes, not six guesses. Got it.
