Default [Dixonary] Round 3085 QUINSELL Results

We've got a three-way tie to be the winner of this round: Shani Naylor,
Ryan McGill, and Dan Widdis all scored 4 points. Two of Dan's were for
gussing the true def, and Ryan is ahead of Shani in the rolling scores, so
Ryan becomes the new dealer. Johnny Barrs and Debbie Embler also guessed
that a QUINSELL is a rein for a horse.

I understand you've got some sort of celebration on the other side of the
pond today, so have a good day! Here, we're celebrating the pubs
reopening, although I think I shall leave it a day or two before going to
one.

Over to you, Ryan, for a back-to-back deal.
