Pieces of 8

1 2 3 4
5 6 7
8 9 10 11

All clues lead to an eight-letter answer that must entered wrapping around one of the black squares, either clockwise or counterclockwise, beginning anywhere. The starting square and the direction can be determined by the overlapping answers. Answers to numbered clues go around that same-numbered black square; where to place the other answers must be determined.

  1. Winter driving hazard (2 wds)
  2. Absolute highest point
  3. Catastrophe
  4. Thing changed in addition to attitude in a Jimmy Buffett song
  5. Move to a new city, say
  6. One saying no
  7. Condition not actually defined as doing the same thing but expecting different results
  8. The quality of being brazenly obvious
  9. Measuring devices commonly found in The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion (but not Skyrim)
  10. Mull over
  11. Out of the ordinary
