Quite a number of examples of “recrewt†and “recrewted†on web pages (for “recruit†and “recruitedâ€). Enlisting new recruits is a way of re-crewing.
Gamer site: “When you join a group tell the person who is the leader of the group that I recrewted you.â€
Web journal: “I recrewted Scott and Ed, both who love to explore old tunnels here on O`ahu, to go along and seek out the Poamoho Tunnel.â€
Web fiction: “I teliported back to my home in Bolton, and all my friend’s were there, waiting for me. I had recrewted several of my old high school friends in to the Death Vally, my organization name.â€
More gamers: “And since you missing quite a few characters, you should be able to recrewt like at leat 5-6 or something monsters.â€
Hatching new language, one eggcorn at a time.
