Sorry about that. There seems to be some confusion, at least in my mind, about where to find a
current word list; the ones I found at www.dixonary.net, linking to John Barrs site, show updated on
11 March, but seem to be older than that.

Let's try again. The word for this round is

*************
* *
* KOLLYVA *
* *
*************

As usual, no indication of capitalisation or otherwise is implied.

New players are welcome. Don't look in a dictionary. If you know the word, let me know soon, by
email (if too many people know it, we'll pick another word).

Think up a creative, intriguing, funny or genuine looking definition that will entice your fellow
players to vote for it. Send it BY EMAIL (not as a public forum message) to me at dixonary at siam
dot co dot uk, before the deadline, which is 8 am GMT (or UTC) on Saturday 16th March. That's
probably 4 am in New York and 1 am in LA, if I've got right the effect of summer time; I'm sure the
rest of you can work it out at least as well as I can.

Full rules, if you're curious, are at www.dixonary.net.

Best wishes,
Tim Bourne.

Sorry about the confusion. The "updated" was when I actually changed the
links to John's files, which were newer than the version that was on
there, but the files still were a few months old.

I'm not sure how often John updates them, or if there's a newer source
than the one I linked to.

Re word files:

I uploaded correctly and I always delete original before uploading new. As
I always do I checked after uploading that they went to the correct round
number and last word (If you remember I had been spurred to get it right
because it had been about 3 months since I had last done it, so I was
annoyed with myself and was very careful.... What is there now is not what
I last uploaded . so I don't know what happened.

I also see that what is there now is from Dan and that it doesn't include
the zip file and that Dan's claim to be March 11 (mine were March 4) but
they too do not contain the latest rounds

I will redo them tomorrow
