All submitters having voted, I'm closing the polls early. The real
winner of this round is Tim Lodge, with a natural 4. Dan Widdis gets
the honor of the next deal by virtue of fooling 3 of you and also
guessing the correct def, which was the first shoots. Tim Bourne poured
salt in the "lost D0" wound by also picking the correct one.
I had to adjust the scores manually because I probably made an entry
error somewhere while inputting votes. I'm sure you'll all let me know
if I've messed up too badly. :)
