Well, with 14 votes cast --- all of them falling into this one
"thread" in my e-mail (for the very first time!?) --- one future
dealer stands out with SIX natural points ~~~ ladies and gentlemen
please welcome to the stage Efrem Mallach!
In the blessed "Real Winnah" spot is Dave "FiveNatch" Cunningham!
And if all of my double-checking was correct, your lame-duck-deity
scores the Star-Wars-themed {r2}D2! My first d0 looked good for the
first 5 votes, but without checking the "Great Guesser" stats - i
think this round's correct voters (take a bow, Jim and Johnny!) are
very high up there indeed!
It has been an honour to deal (and at least get the real def into the
list!). Please let us all know if the calculations of my [sore]
eye[s] are incorrect.
Take it away, with my con«gratu»dolences - Efrem!
