Here are 14 definitions brought to you at great expense of wit and
wisdom by our esteemed panel of experts. Now your job is to decide which
is the definition that was submitted by a dictionary (even if it doesn't
look like it they are sorted by number of characters)

Vote for TWO definitions, as a public forum or group message (in reply
to this one), before the deadline..

9:00 pm on Friday, 17 Feb 2017 in the UK
4:00 pm on East Coast USA
1:00 pm on West Coast USA
7:30 am on 18 Feb in parts of Oz

New Players are welcome, even if you didn't submit a definition you may
vote.

JohnnyB

1. shiny

2. to tingle or quiver

3. to cry like a gander

4. to taper off; dwindle

6. stream in jets, of liquids

8. [joc.] to put ice into a drink

I hate it when I narrow it down to three (but most likely none of them are correct anyhow!).

I'll settle for these:

2. to tingle or quiver

11. [Sl.] to stare overly long in a mirror at oneself

Interesting. My phone helpfully suggested to add a calendar event based on this email.

Unfortunately it picked the 7:30am Oz time rather than the real deadline.

And it assumed a subject line of "Drinks". So maybe it knows the woid and I should vote for the drink on the rocks or the wine.

8 and 9 please

I think it's a verb. (A smart player will immediately eliminate all verbs as possibilities.) That said, which one? Let's try 5 and 11.
