Sorry, Tim, I've seen no trace of your def, and I've checked all my spam filters.  I'll let you know if it turns up.

I’d like to vote for 9 twice, but failing that I suppose 2 is strange enough to earn my second vote.

Your def message turned up at 18:07 BST today - it appears to have been held up at the mail server which redirects mail from the address I use for Dixonary to another one of mine.  You get 2 DP..

[France International/Mike Shefler]

I didn't really intend to give you quite so long to vote - it looks as though I tried to add 1½ days to Friday and got Sunday instead of Saturday.  No matter, I won't change the deadline.  However, if those of you who have submitted a def but haven't yet voted would like to do so, I might be able to close the round early under Rule 8(a)(2).

--  Tim L

[Efrem G Mallach]

I'll do my part toward an early closing: 5 and 12.
