[Dixonary] Rnd 1815 - New Word FALDING

[Christopher Carson]

As unaccustomed as I am ... no, that's probably not right. Anyway, I'm using the new version of Cory, freshly installed and I see that Paul has included new message templates so excuse any glitches due to my not being diligent in checking and personalizing the templates. Now to business.

Barring excessive DQs, the word for round 1815 is

**
***
****
***** F A L D I N G
****
***
**
*

Capitalization is not significant.

Please concoct a fake definition for this word that you think your fellow players will find plausible, or entertaining, or both.

Newcomers to the game are always welcome: your task is to induce the other
players to vote for your fake definition rather than the real one. You will
find the full rules at http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/coryphaeus/files
but they can be summarized thus:
1. Don't look the word up.
2. Make up a fake definition and email it to me.
3. Check back here after the deadline.

I am extending the deadline a bit. I have to spend the day Wednesday at Princeton and I'm skeptical about the possibility of email access. Therefore, the deadline for submissions will be Wednesday, June 06, 2007 at

6:00 PM PDT
7:00 PM MDT
8:00 PM CDT
9:00 PM EDT

and on Thursday, June 07, 2007 at

1:00 AM UTC
2:00 AM BST

You can use the email address ccarson (AT) ix (DOT) netcom.com to submit definitions. To help my email program deal appropriately with your email, please put "1815" or "FALDING" in the subject line.

FYI: On my screen, Chris's announcement of the new word (which came through
fine) was followed by a no-text message from Mike indicating that there
were not one but two binary attachments.

Did you send this (whatever it was; I didn't send for the attachments)
differently from the messages you posted in connection with the last deal,
the announcement of rolling scores, etc., Mike? (All of those came through
fine.)
