[Dixonary] Round 2789 Pledget Results

I waited a bit past the deadline hoping that Duncan and Chris would
vote, but they didn't.

Dan, John and the dictionary were tied with 5 points each. The
dictionary cannot deal, and John guessed the correct definition, so the
next dealer is Dan Widdis with 5 natural points. So take it away, Dan!
