Default [Dixonary] 3037 SITH results

Hi all!

Please forgive my tardiness. When the deadline came, I was knee deep in
Buena Noche preparations, and if you're not familiar with Buena Noche, it
tends to stay busy up until (and past) midnight. Despite listing times in
UTC, I live in Oregon, so . . .

Here are your results for round 3037 for the word SITH. I combined the
definitions from Cunningham and Merriam-Webster due to their similarity,
which, for my second deal in a row, was nearly word-for-word. (I did not
check with Cunningham if this was intended to be a DQ, as if it were not,
it would automatically become an unintended DQ. Cunningham's vote confirmed
this to be a good gamble.)

Because only 2 voters did not vote for the combined definition, including
Cunningham, we get to share a rare combined Natural 9 and D9, making
Cunningham Da Winnah and me a rather astonished dealer. Of course, the real
winners are Mallach and Widdis, who each scored an aberrant 5. Should
Cunningham be unable to deal, Mallach is highest in rolling scores.

Now, for our tabulation:

1. a brimless cap. — defined by Stevens, who voted for 5 & 7, scoring an
aberrant 4.
Votes from Embler & Widdis.

2. easily procured. [Not used.] — defined by Widdis, who voted for 1 & 7,
scoring an aberrant 5.
Votes from Abell, Evans, & Madnick.

3. the eighth chakra in the Buddhist meditation system, corresponding to
the moment just before achievement of nirvana. — defined by Shefler, who
voted for 5 & 7, scoring an aberrant 4.
Votes from Mallach & Shepherdson.

4. a group of ornamental ponds arranged in a formal design. — defined by
Naylor, who voted for 5 & 6, scoring a natural 1.
Vote from Cunningham.

5. [Bot.] in a flower, the point at which the anther attaches to the
filament. — defined by Mallach, who voted for 3 & 7, scoring an aberrant 5.
Votes from Naylor, Shefler, & Stevens.

6. a name for plants of the genus Nigella - especially N sativa; sometimes
applied to the corncockle Agrostemma githago. — defined by Barrs, who was
DQ, scoring a natural 2.
Votes from Cunningham & Naylor.

7. [rare] variant of since. — defined by Cunningham & Merriam-Webster, who
voted for 4 & 6, scoring a natural 9.
Votes from Abell, Embler, Evans, Madnick, Mallach, Shefler, Shepherdson,
Stephens, & Widdis.

Lodge, who was DQ, defined sith as, [Obs.] immediately; without delay. It
was read by Google's filters to be some sort of promotional email, which
scores Lodge 2 Dealer Points.

Those who did not submit a definition all voted for the crowd favorite, and
their results are as follows:
Abell voted for 2 & 7, scoring an aberrant 2.
Embler voted for 1 & 7, scoring an aberrant 2.
Evans voted for 2 & 7, scoring an aberrant 2.
Madnick voted for 2 & 7, scoring an aberrant 2.
Shepherdson voted for 3 & 7, scoring an aberrant 2.

As you can see, everyone who participated in this round scored. I'm not
sure if that's a metric Shefler tracks, but I don't recall encountering it
so far in my tenure here, so it seems worth mentioning.

Anyway, I'm off to wrap up some tamales and then maybe sleep. If you're the
sort that celebrate today, I hope it's a good one, and I hope you get some
high-quality deposits in your memory banks.

Take it away, Cunningham!

Rx.
