quone coined in an episode of the TV show, Seinfeld -noun- a non-word played in the game of Scrabble; -verb-(quone, quoned, quoning) to play a non-word in Scrabble.

Note: I've actually submitted this definition to Hasbro and to Merriam Webster, the manufacturers of The Scrabble Players Dictionary. Your other definition entries are good, but obviously they cannot actually appear in any medical dictionary. However, it seems that this definition has an actual function and place in a dictionary because it describes a common real-life situation (such as "wipeout" in surfing and "misdeal" in cards, etc)...and there is currently no dictionary listing for the situation.
Dan: "You won that Scrabble game only because you got away with playing a quone, 'flabbergut' for 36 points!"

Bob: "Hey, quoning is part of playing Scrabble. Don't blame me if you're too chicken to challenge such an idiotic term!"

quote can

In the time of 300A.D., Indians would kick a Coca-Cola can around their villages or trailer-parks while shouting ridiculous and sometimes racist quotes with every kick. Spaniards were amazed with this awesome game of laughter that they slaughtered all of the Indians in possesion of it and took all of the Coca-cola cans back to Spain where they claimed to have invented the game themselves! The game never really caught on till April of 2006… Now it is a world Olympic event.
