Ok-- strange round to the end. Must be a full moon or
sumpin'. Autodealer refused to let me enter votes for
#14, telling me there were only 13 defs, even though
it printed out 14! I hope I repaired it right.
To get to the bottom line, unless I made more
mistakes, the next dealer is Scott Crom, with an
unnatural 8. His fellow chatterbox, Tim Lodge, ties
with the turbulent and confused Suzanne Selby for
"real winner" position with an unnatural 6.
The gory details: no fewer than THREE of you
submitted definitions that implied that you thought
that I wouldn't but others would think that I would do
a fake-out and just choose a word with an alternate
spelling. And Paul was SO confused he voted for his
own def. Sorta... the wording was different enough
that I guess it fooled him.
And there was even another combo, the ever-popular
number 9, the incessant talker def.
And FIVE of you guessed that it was a Scots word for
pouring unsteadily. Seemed pretty unlikely to me, but
what do I know?
Takeitaway, Scott!
