Paul,I, for one, don't have a problem with it. In fact, I did the same once when the results were beyond question and their posting was delayed for some reason. I see it as a reasonable way to keep the game moving, and I'm glad you did it.Should you be attacked for this, which I hope doesn't happen, I'll be on your side.Sleep well 😴,Efrem========================

It appears that Ryan has been unavoidably delayed.
In round 3203, the correct definition (so Google tells me) was 3, which one player voted for (me). My definition was 7 which 5 players voted for, but one of those players was me, so it got 4 usable votes.
Since there was only one vote for the real definition, the scores for the other nine players can be read directly from the votes for their , which were
Definition Votes Score 1 1 1 2 1 1 3 1 D1 4 1 1 5 3 3 6 2 2 7 4 (+ 1 not counted) 4 + 2 = 6 8 2 2 9 1 1 10 1 1 11 - Total 18
That is 18 votes from 9 ballots (by timestamp: Judy, Tim, me, Shani, Mike, you, Ann, Efrem, Tony). If the authors of the other definitions will identify themselves we can resolve the round scoring while Ryan is busy with whatever is engaging his attention.
If I have got something wrong here, I'm sure that Mike will set me straight.
Regards
