Presented forthwith are 10 definitions for FINEER, nine of which are the objects of players’ imaginations and one of which came from a reputable dictionary.
I’ll set a 36-hour deadline which is noon on Friday PDT, 3pm EDT, 19:00 UTC, 8pm BST, 9pm CEST, and Saturday 5am AEST and 7am NZST. Seems we have more time zones than players these days…

3. Fermented goat cheese.
4. Flexible veneer.
5. Obs. veneer.

7. An Indonesian dessert made with coconut milk, rice flour, and pandan leaves, also called bubur sum-sum.
