[Dixonary] Round 3104: GRA [Results]
The real winner of this round, with a spectacular 8 votes, was the OED.
No fewer than 4 players tied for second place, with 4 points each: Dan Widdis, Efrem Mallach, Judy Madnick, and Tim Lodge. None of those scores was a natural, so the leader in the rolling scores takes the next deal. With 15 points from the last 5 rounds, including this one, that is Efrem Mallach. 1 A shard or fragment Votes from Shani Naylor, Tim Bourne Nancy Shepherdson 2 A sneeze of contempt John Barrs 3 The coarse outer hair of llamas, used for rugs, wall-hangings, and lead ropes Votes from Dan Widdis, Debbie Embler Tim Lodge 4 A critical bug in a computer program, resulting from a minor and understandable but still really bad mistake, that can take hours to figure out and fix Debbie Embler 5 To burble or make a gurgling noise, said of a stream Vote from John Barrs Shani Naylor 6 Obs. or Scot.
