Rd 3087: Muley defs up

[nancygoat]

I know it's Saturday here, but I had so many meetings that this is a late posting,  Sorry!

There are a healthy 15 defs below for you to vote for, picking your two favorites.  People who didn't submit a def can also vote for two.

Deadline for voting is a little extended.  Might as well be because I'll probably be late on that, too.

Please vote by 3 a.m. EDT on Monday July 13, 8 a.m. GMT.  I'll be posting the vote, I hope, before I go to my Zumba class (via Zoom) Monday morning.

Good luck and happy voting!

Nancy

Does everybody know they can vote now?  Or have I completely confused everyone including myself?

[Daniel B Widdis]

I’m waiting for you to post a list that includes the real def, since none of the options can possibly be true.

I'll go for 1 and 11.

[amal...@comcast.net]

I too am utterly unconvinced by any of them. However, I am less unconvinced by a few. For no particular reason, I’ll try #6 and #11.

4 & 11 for me. 

[nancygoat]

Don't wait forever, Daniel.  

[Daniel B Widdis]

11 and 5, with a nod to Guy Fawkes.

 

[Efrem G Mallach]

I agree with the consensus that the real definition was inadvertently left off the list. However, I can still give points to two players. I'll give them to the authors of definitions 12 and 14.

Hi Nancy,

Whooops, I see I'm a bit late. Hopefully not too late.

My votes are for two agricultural defs. Not planned this way, these were just the two defs that remained after repeated shortening of my shortlist.

4. [Midwest sl.] a poor farmer.

11. A tractor used to move railroad cars in paved areas such as docks.

Cheers,
Hugo
