Default [Dixonary] Round 3191 - KOLEK Results

Alan Mallach is the runaway winner and next dealer with 7 unnatural votes. Mike Shefler is the real winner with 5 natural. Four players guessed the rectangular-sailed boat, whose definition seemed to me like a typical made-up one, but it didn't fool very many.

Take it away, Alan!
