Default [Dixonary] Rnd 2784 RESULTS: DRAGOMAN

Hm. Something about the timing i chose? It is now the voting deadline,
and only 5 votes have come in. I think i have correctly checked the
message board, and see the same. 5 + 4 DQs = 9, so that isn't a record low
turnout, exactly.

Wow - that was a lot of Dixonary Match-making for Shani and Efrem!
{All} *4-and-a-half
pairs of votes 9+11!*
I think the only reason that Shani Naylor didn't vote for the unstoppable
military duo of 9 & 11 is that 9 was hers.
Which was rather cunning of her, because it just edged her down into the
"real winnah" spot by one. (I kid, she could have voted with the throng
with the same result, but no chance at getting the correct one ... so ....)

I know we are all focusing on Judy (i've shared my wishes earlier, my own
quad bypass 9 years ago went rather well.) so i will just announce that the
poor soul who must take up the deal yet again in Efrem, while Shani basks
in the middle score, with another DQ in 3rd place: number 4 in your
program, number 3 in your heart - Tim Lodge.

Well, my deals *always *go oddly. Obviously, i should have redealt even
with my late realisation.
*I will NOT feel right taking a D1 in these conditions*. I wanna get a
real one. Definition #5 is the real stuff.

Over to Efrem, with my congrat-*dolences *on your dealing win.
