Boy, now I'm in deep trouble. I got tired of not gettomg complete answers on my M-W toolbar, so I bought into the Unabridged edition. I can get Unabridged, Collegiate + - all for $29.95 a year. Now I'll probably get deMaced all the time :0
Well, we've coined the word pipped if someone sneaks a post ahead of you, soooooo I thought deMaced ........

I have the new highpriced toolbar for quick and easy results, I think I will have more mistakes in the future <sigh> but, I will accept them gracefully

And here I was thinking that being "deMaced" had something to do with spraying pepper spray into the face of a potential mugger. (Can you tell I live in New York?)
According to freesearch.co.uk (yet another online dictionary), "pipped" is "UK informal" for "to beat someone either by a very small amount or right at the end of a competition." See:
