[Dixonary] Rd. 2988: ANTA results
 
Hi all,

I am thankful for a relatively drama-less round. I'm not sure Efrem
Mallach will be thankful for his runaway win, an unnatural 7 for his eave
decorations. Runners up, with 4 unnatural, were Johnny Barrs and his
mushroom and Dave Cunningham and his theater entrance. Chris Carson earned
4 natural for his ridge and so it the real winner.

The first three all voted for the real def, the architectural pier, below.
The As point to the antas.
