Default [Dixonary] Round 2975 - ZAGUAN Results

I’ve stumbled through a forest of error messages and I think have accumulated a correct scoring total for all. I missed Judy’s definition through the initial chaos and so I’ve attempted to enter two dealer points for her, giving her a total of 4. I’m sure if I missed any other votes, someone will catch it and post the corrections for Mike, our scoring guru.

In round 2975, 3 players earned top spot with 5 points: they were John Barrs, Tim Bourne and Ryan McGill. Ryan McGill's definition "A woven pattern characterized by alternating bars and chevrons." earned its author the deal, and the others can heave a sigh of relief that their defs did not earn one more vote.

Shani Naylor takes runner-up position with 4 points.

The true definition was 4: "A roofed entryway, especially one leading to the patio of a house." (AHD 5th), which 5 perceptive players guessed.
