Default [Dixonary] Round 2932 HIRANYAGARBHA results

Greetings all,

Per Wiktionary (which had the most concise and understandable definition),
HIRANYAGARBHA is a name of Brahma, so called because he was born from a
golden egg.

This was a rather close rounds, with all the forerunners scoring 4.

The deal will be passed to Madnick, whose score was natural.

The true winners, as tradition dictates, are Abell, Mallach, and Widdis,
each of whose scores were unnatural.

The dealt definition scored a D5. I'm not sure if that's a victory or a
shame.

Also, please accept my apologies for the inconsistent formatting in the
definitions. I may have mentioned before that my work, home, and personal
lives are busier in the last couple weeks than they've been in almost a
year, and as such, I neglected the edit. If this affected your vote, please
let me know, so I can improve on my future deals.

Scoring is as follows:

1 by Barrs, who voted 5 & 12 for a score of 2, voted for by Madnick, for an
unnatural 3.

sacred mountain"]

There were no DQs or anomalous votes this round. Though I did see that I
missed a definition from Shepherdson for my last deal, so if I can award 2
retroactive dealer points, I'd like to. As such, any tips or tricks for
managing inbox clutter for the purpose of Dixonary deals would be greatly
appreciated. The normal gmail filters don't seem to be effective.

I've attached the tabulation as before, in case there are any issues with
my summary.

Enjoy!

Ryan
