Default [Dixonary] Round 2943 -- Clepsydras -- Results

I am going to need help declaring a winner as there is a 4 way tie.
Apparently my real definition sounded too real! Here are the results:

*This life is temporary. This life is short. When this life is over, our
bodies will die and become empty shells, but our souls will continue to
live forever. Where will the “real you” live? Will you live for all
eternity separated from God? Or will you spend eternity in the presence of
God in heaven? Learn more so you can make your most important decision:

Of the four winners, Shani Naylor is ahead of the others by a
nose-length - Pinocchio style.
That makes her the next dealer and the other three the "real winners".

Thanks, Hugo. I thought so but needed someone to confirm since I am fairly
new here. And I don't believe I've met you until now. Howdy!

Hugo is right and I'm wrong. I left Shani out of the rolling scores (now reposted with correction).

The last four not counting this one, or the last five counting this one. They amount to the same thing since all the tied players have the same score in this one.

If there's still a tie on that basis, total scores since the beginning of time are the next (and hopefully final) tiebreaker.
