[Dixonary] NEW WORD
>> Now it looks like Wayne Scott may send a word. What to do? What
>> to do? It appears that Wayne HAS posted a word. I don't know, Fran. The rules say only that if the person who should be the next dealer hasn't announced a new word after a full 24 hours, the next in line (that's you) is the dealer. Wayne posted a word around 40 hours after the end of the last round--and of course meanwhile, you had posted one (well, two, in fact!). I guess Wayne never saw your word; don't know why! I don't recall this ever coming up since I've been playing. Maybe somebody who's been in the game longer can say what happens in such a case. My own judgment (if that somehow counts since I was the last dealer) is that, Wayne having defaulted, and you having become the dealer by announcing a new word--you are in fact the dealer and Wayne should reserve his word and we are all honor-bound (or, as the case may be with some of us, honour-bound) not to look it up, so he can use it next time he's the dealer. But let's see what the group thinks. Now, I gotta go watch "Jeopardy". --Dodi --Dodi ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo!
