I thought of CONTRACT but the clue stated the answer was 7 characters long whereas CONTRACT has 8. I also thought of CONDUCT but that didn't fit the definition.

You'll have to ask Pete - I didn't notice the length difference ... :-O

I was counting in base idiot. If you're not proficient in it, you'll never get the answer. Rejoice in your base 10 victory.
