Fellow players,
In another bounce-back, Shani Naylor's melancholy/gay musical piece (def. #8), which received five votes, earns her the next deal. She was tied with John Barrs (Creole potatoes, def. #1) on points, but two of his came from voting for the correct definition (#5). He was the only player to vote for it, and is the traditional "winnah."
Should anyone be curious, a tatouay looks like this:
Full results:
1. [Creole] potatoes. From Barrs, J. who voted 3, *5*. Voted for by: Madnick, J.; Shefler, M.; Bourne, T. Score: 5.

8. an alternately melancholy and gay piece of music, found chiefly in the work of Spanish composers. From Naylor, S. who voted 6, 9. Voted for by: Shepherdson, N.; Lodge, T.; Widdis, D.; Carson, C.; Hale, K. Score: 5.
9. a bed consisting of a wooden frame strung with interlaced cords or webbing, used chiefly in South Asia. From Carson, C. who voted 8, 13. Voted for by: Shepherdson, N.; Naylor, S. Score: 2.
