A game played with the traditional board game "guess who" but with slightly different rules. The difference is that a given question can only be asked once over a period of multiple games (usually for the whole weekend, or however long you're trapped in the cabin with nothing to do except play guess who, but possibly forever!).
If someone asks a repeat question, they lose.
Since the number of objective, declarative questions is rather finite, the later stages of No-Repeat Guess Who are similar to subjective guess who.
Questions are identified by their meaning - you can't change the word order, or add a trivial extra phrase, to ask what is essentially the same question twice.

Refers to da stressful/humiliating "sudsing" dat da residents of a particular area painfully go through over and over during each and every election year, whereby they hafta sufferingly listen to all of da different candidates' make yackety-yack a blue streak and spew lofty proclamations and promises, only to have most or all of said glistening concessions come crashing down and be forgotten after one of da candidates actually takes office. Or in da case of especially blatant campaign-promise-breaking and/or serious political misbehavior, dat last word could instead be "retreat", as in, running off and hiding somewhere in shame/guilt/fear, either by the elected official himself when he knows dat his citizenry is mad at him, or by da sector of citizens who had voted him in and had enthusiastically touted him during da campaign as being such a great guy who was gonna step in and save da day, only for him to just casually renege on all of dat wonderful clap-trap and "practice business as usual".
Da term "blather, wince, repeat" could also refer to da "financial shampooing" chicanery --- i.e., money-laundering of campaign contributions --- dat "comes out in da wash" during or after da election.

If you hear your friend say this word, and if you don't know it, then you have a good brain. It means that you repeat the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

An individual who repeats an error.
My Mother made me realize that there are people who continually repeat an action they were informed, know, and should remember is an error. They might repeat an error because they forgot it was wrong to do it, or due to some other mental incapacity. I realized she was an “error-repeater”, but that that term is new, so I decided to submitted it to this excellent website that is increasing the body of knowledge and improving everything.

When you force someone to repeat the question you were just asked. Using "it slipped my mind" as an excuse.
Gina: *asks question*
Ellie: *was tuned out* could you repeat the question?
Gina: ...
Ellie: I heard you, but it slipped my mind
Gina: yeah of course!
Jane: *in corner* sus
