Default [Dixonary] 3086 POLTOPHAGY full results

Hi all!

Here are your results for round 3086 for the word POLTOPHAGY, which is the
thorough chewing of food until it becomes like porridge. I scored a D2; no
one was DQ, a first for me.

Da Winnah is Nancy Shepherdson, who received an aberrant 8 for some lichen
action. "Real" winner honors go to Tony Abell, who received a natural 5 for
parasitic microorganisms.

Now, for our tabulation. If for some reason it is wrong, please accept my
apologies. Things have come up, and I'm likely to be unreachable for a
couple days. I'll address it Sunday.

by Naylor, who voted for 10 & 11, scoring a natural 1.
