Default [Dixonary] Round 3158 GARGYSE Results

As everyone who submitted a def has voted - in a remarkably short time -
I'm going to close the round early. Alan Mallach is our new dealer, with 6
votes for his Greek grotesque, a clear 3 ahead of the runners-up, Judy
Madnicj and Shani Naylor, who scored 3 each. Only Deb Fein guseed that
GARGYSE was a disease in cattle.

Over to you, Alan.
