The deadline extension only produced one further def, so here we have 12

4:00 PM EDT in New York
1:00 PM PDT in California

New players are welcome - just don't look up the word until after you've
voted.

The votes so far seem mostly concentrated on about four definitions. Who am I to disagree with the collective wisdom? Of those, I’ll randomly pick 4 and 12.
