[Philately] a stamp printed using a fugitive ink which has been completely removed to simulate a "color omitted" variety. 7. the larva of the bean-fly. 8. also called Nodie.js: an open-source, cross-platform JavaScript run-time environment that executes JavaScript code server-side. 9. a sixpence. 10. in computer games, a player who goes to a location that other players are expected to visit and waits there.

Re: [Dixonary] Round 2907 vote for nodie
I vote for 6 and 7.
Guerri P.S. I hope the short list means it's summer and people are outdoors and not sitting by their computers, rather than a shrinking pool of players.

RE: [Dixonary] Round 2907 vote for nodie
I'll take the two "one of" definitions:
3. one of several species of grass whose stems are without geniculation. 4. one of three pressure-sensitive failsafe switches on an industrial log-splitting machine.

[Dixonary] Round 2907 vote for nodie
It's one of those rounds where I wish I could vote for three.
1 & 8 and an honorable mention to the roadie. > 1. [Obs.

Re: [Dixonary] Round 2907 vote for nodie
None of them are plausible, including my own. After eliminating a few that I think are even more implausible than the others, thus almost certainly also eliminating the real definition, I'll go for 1 and 9.

Whoops. Missed the definition deadline.
I'll invoke *Oliver! *and ask for more gruel, while singing a song of sixpence. 2 and 9. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Dixonary" group.
