My apologies for the late results posting.  Last round I resolved to set up an Excel sheet to score the deal  and unfortunately I procrastinated right past the deal falling to me again.  Therefore, I had to do a manual scoring job.  Any mistakes are clearly the dealers fault, mea culpa.

 

The winner of Round 3026 was the American Heritage Dictionary, who unfortunately cannot deal.  Therefore, Tim Cunningham wins the deal with his unnatural 4.  The runners up who each scored 3; Bourne, Embler, Mallach, and Naylor can heave a sigh of relief and enjoy their weekend..

 

The true definition was 8: "A rich heavy silk fabric with a corded effect." (AHD 5), which 5 perceptive players guessed.

 

1. A nut substitute made from a soybean soaked in water,

    drained, and then baked or roasted.     No votes

    Submitted by: Madnick, who scores 0 + 2, total 2.

2. A nest box [poss. from Fr. oiseau].     Votes from:   Abell, Shefler and Widdis

    Submitted by: Bourne, who scores natural 3.

3. A variant of Baroque music q.v.     Votes from:  Abell and Embler

    Submitted by: Cunningham, who scores 2 + 2, total 4.

4. (Arch.) The bell or vase of the Corinthian capital.

    [Improperly so used]     Vote from:    Cunningham 

    Submitted by: Widdis, who scores natural 1.

5. A Kentucky marinade of moonshine and savory spices.    Vote From:  McGill

    Submitted by: Embler. Who scores 1+2, total 3.

6. A Peruvian dish of stewed guinea pig.     Votes from: Naylor and Widdis

    Submitted by: Lodge, Who scores a natural 2

7. A kind of scummy particulate found in brackish pools;

    notable components usually include rust and pollen.     Vote from:    Shefler

    Submitted by: McGill, who scores natural 1.

8. A rich heavy silk fabric with a corded effect.     Votes from:   Cunningham, Embler, Madnick, Mallach, and Naylor
     Real definition from AHD 5 which scores a 5

9. The right of the lord of a manor to try anyone accused

    of theft within his domain.     Vote from McGill

   Submitted by: Efrem, who scores 1+2, total 3

10. A light leather saddle used by the Spaniards in the

    American southwest.     Votes from:   Bourne and Madnick

    Submitted by: Shefler, who scores natural 2.

11. Etching, inscription; [Etruscan  atu'azui = "tablet writing"] --     Votes from:   Bourne and Naylor

    Submitted by: Dixon, who scores natural 2.

    Submitted by: Naylor, who scores 1+2, total 3

I see another Tim has joined the game!  I remember referring to Dave Cunningham as Mike on one occasion, so he's probabbly used to it by now.

By the way, you left me off your scoring table.  Also I was DQ.
