Default Re: [Dixonary] Rnd 3074 The Results

Alan,

Comparing the old and new lists would identify the one that wasn't in the old list as fake.

No?

Three messages with defs ended up unchecked in my Junk folder and the fourth error was a mix up of the two Tims. If it weren’t a tad early, I’d go downstairs and have tot of Jameson’s and do penance. In retrospect, I probably should have scrapped the round and started over. I think I (or someone) may actually have done that once. Anyway, the new dealer is Efrem with his Scottish def. I’m sure his deal will go more smoothly.
