Default [Dixonary] Rd.2866: Ottavino results

Hi all, (Sorry for the tech crash delay)

I thought I was safe when none of you DQed including Johnny. Then Tim
Lodge submitted a def so close to the real one that I felt I needed to
combine them and give him a DQ. Mistake. Tim and I earned a big 8 points
for the type of flute; the piccolo. Still it's not my highest total on
dealing. That would be a D11 for wapentake.

Our next dealer is Effrem Mallach, whose flutelike organ stop earned him an
unnatural 9! The aforementioned Johnny Barrs earns the coveted runner-up
with his falsetto voice bringing in an unnatural 8.

So take it away, Effrem. Please.

Nancy
