Corrected (I hope) with a tie between Mallach and Carson

Sorry

For which Efrem seems to now have taken the deal, probably a relief to Chris.

I was about to write the same thing. We're tied at 4 points each, both our scores are natural, and I'm ahead in the rolling scores. 

Barring someone coming up with yet another change to the scores, new word this evening (eastern U.S. time).

And a happy New Year to all!
