[Dixonary] Round 1941: New word - HEREN

[Tony Abell]

Sorry about the delay. I work during the day and have no access to, or time for,
the game when I'm at work. It figures that the only other player to tie my score
is even lower in rolling scores than I am, even though I'm fifth from the
bottom.

The word for round 1941 shall be:

+
++
+++
++++
+++++ HEREN
++++
+++
++
+

or heren, case being irrelevant. If you know the word, notify me of your DQ
status as soon as possible.

Please send your made-up, fictitious, fallacious or hilarious definitions to me
by email at hello * isanybodyhome.com before the deadline, below. If you're new
to the game and are interested in playing, do NOT look up or google the word.
Instead, read the rules in the Coryphaeus Yahoogroups file area or the sticky
messages in tapcis.com's The Parlor section.

The deadline for definition submissions shall be:

Saturday, 10:00am EDT 27-Sep-2008
Saturday, 07:00am PDT 27-Sep-2008
Saturday, 03:00pm BST 27-Sep-2008
Sunday, 12:00am AEST 28-Sep-2008

Would you please clarify your e-mail address? Is it just the underlined phrase or does it include the previous line?

I'm afraid I have no idea. The mail I send from this account is utterly plain
text in the ISO 8859-1 character set. There are no underlines; any such
decorations are added by whatever you are using to view the mail. The address is

hello isanybodyhome.com

except that the space should be replaced by the at sign. The reason for
obscuring the email address in the body of the message is my lingering doubts
over whether it will be obscured properly in the various web-accessible places
that the list may appear on.

Wayne, for clarification of any player's address, please look at the list I
sent you the other day.

I don't know about the Tapcis.com site, but the Google groups website
actually does a better job of hiding your email address than you just did.
:)

Google group recognises email addresses and will automatically obscure them
for non-members viewing the web site. I'm not sure how "regular" members are
handled; moderators (such as I am one) do get to see the complete address.
So if a message contains, for instance, "someone (AT) somewhere (DOT) com", then this
will be displayed as "someone@s...". It will be a clickable link, allowing
people (IIRC) to send mail to you without your address being exposed (the
mail will be sent by Gogole groups on their behalf, allowing you to contact
them or not as you see fit).

Of course, the way you handled it results in Google groups not recognising
it as an email address, so if a more intelligent 'bot harvests the site it
will be able to construct your email address.

Best, Hugo

That clarifies what puzzled me.
Thanks, Wayne

Wayne, there have been NO quotebacks in your last three messages. How on
earth can one tell what you're responding to????
