This was a nailbiting round for the dealer, who hates ties! This time,
Chris, Dodi, Nancy, and Russ each had 4 points. Because Dodi voted for
the real definition, she lucked out. Nancy was lowest in the rolling
scores, leaving a tie between Chris and Russ and forcing the dealer to
go to the total scores. Russ, with 4092 (not counting this round) is
the winner, and Dodi, Nancy, and Chris can breathe a sigh of relief,
as can I.
In addition to the tie, my tapcis.com Email was down when I logged on
to wrap everything up. I checked both the tapcis.com forum and the
Coryphaeus group, and found votes for everyone except Wayne.
Take it away, Russ!
