Round 3604: Besaiel results

[nancygoat]

(Reposted with proper round number)

I thought I was safe when Johnny Barrs didn’t DQ, but then he was the only one who guessed real definition, ruining my D0! (I forgive you, Johnny.) 

Besaiel actually is, illogically to me, an obsolete term for great-grandfather (#2), which is still sometimes used in legal writing, according to the OED.  Who would have guessed?(Only Johnny...) Voting was pretty widespread as a result, and ended in a three-way tie with of players with 4 natural points: Paul Keating, Shani Naylor and Tim Bourne.

Paul is currently first in the rolling scores, so gets the deal. (I would never have thought his footless bird would get ANY votes, but the patently weird def attracts votes from us all the time.)

Also, excuse me “Chowie” and Glenn. I don’t deal enough anymore to remember your real full names, as you will see in the summary below. Sorry in advance if there are any mistakes.

Take it away, Paul!
