Default [Dixonary] Round 2831 Results: CLUEY

Interesting round, and that adjective is acquiring an edge these days
- or is it just me?

I got the deadline date wrong, it was today, 3 September.
They moved the call time of the competion, so here are your results!

Shani Naylor ran away with it with *7 *unspeakable points, she is our
next dealer. The dictionary is the real winnah at D6, but our
sentient real winnah is Tony Abell, at 4 natch. Dave Cunningham
swings along close at *4.

Nancy Shepherdson def did arrive before the deadline, but my last
second search failed to find it. Please note 2 dealah points for her!

Take the reins, please Shani -( you probably already figured it out).
