I'll vote for 1 and 13:

> 13. (Bot.) a circle of two or more leaves, flowers, or other organs, about
> the same part or joint of a stem.

And while I'm at it, allow me to apologize to the players for disappearing for
a couple weeks. Work pressures and time constraints were taking a toll, and I
had to leave the Dixonary folder alone for a while. It never occurred to me
that I might have won a deal...I didn't discover the slip-up until days after
Ryan McGill finally stepped in with a word. I owe him one.

9's illegal these days, especially for Tim B.

And 12 should be a word.

I know this is just in jest and I perhaps should not even post a serious response here, but this is a pet peeve of mine.
I wish Americans would stop leaving out the adjective before "citizen".
As far as I know, Tim is not stateless, which means he definitely is citizen of at least one country.

I do agree that he's not an American citizen, though.
