[Dixonary] Round 2311: bunyip - Announcement

[Christopher Carson]

Urk! This is becoming entirely too habitual.

Barring too many DQs, the word for round 2311 will be:

*
***
*****
*******
*********
*********** B U N Y I P
*********
*******
*****
***
*

Capitalization is not significant.

I"m going to fiddle the deadlines a bit, since as usual my schedule is
complicated. Friday morning I have a job interview via Skype (how cutting
edge!) and Friday afternoon a session at the hospital for another thyroid
biopsy. Therefore, I'm going to try and sandwich the deadline between the
two. If that doesn't work, I'll post the defs after the biopsy, probably
late Friday afternoon. The players' forebearance is appreciated.

Please submit your fake definitions for this word, by _email_, on or
before the deadline, which is:

11:00 AM EDT on Friday, June 08, 2012, or 8:00 AM PDT ., or for the
International Set 4:00 PM BST .

If you are DQ, please advise promptly so I can find a replacement.

Chris,

Please disqualify me on this one. I've spent a good deal of time in Australia over the years and heard it there.

OOOPS -

My sincere apologies as a newbie - I thought I was replying privately but this seems to have gone to the entire group. I really hope I didn't screw things up too much.

My face is redder than you can believe. It won't happen again.

Efrem - not to worry. As it turns out you were just one of several to recognize the bunyip as a mythical Aussie beastie. I'll post a new word as soon as I can later today.

That's a relief, Chris, but I won't do it again anyhow!

Thanks, Efrem
