There's a lot o' slop 'bout these hogs, W'on. Truth be known, this be 'bout the sloppiest Hogwash (unregistered) ever was.

Me, I'm jes' bidin' my time till Jackie and Dody vote. They may as well vote randomly.

I hope somebody will come up with a creepy, crawly hog for October to play.

Did y'all ever read the Kai Lung books, by Ernest Bramah?
"Entrancing as it is to wander in this garden of bright images, are we not neglecting something of almost equal importance." (Could that be voting?) Wonderful! Kai Lung had something appropriate for every occasion.

WAIT! DON'T CLOSE THEM POLLS!...huuh...huuh...(give me a minute, I'm out of breath)...huuh...huuh, OK, thats better, ...now let me tell you the good news. I just got off the phone with Jackie and just plain Dody. They are vacationing off the coast of the Tam`bere`nee Islands and won't be able to get back in time to vote. They have given me their proxy.

Just plain Dody votes for # 7 - before death.

And Jackie votes for # 5 - an ousted group leader.(such as former Hogmaster tsuwm.)

Please hurry and post the results, Hogmisstress, now that all the votes are in we can experience closure and move on to Creepy-Crawley Hogwash for Halloween. Yea!

Sorry, milum.

Rhubarb ain't voted yet either. So, we gotta wait till he plays the last tune in this limping little operetta before I paste the results.

Rhubarb: We wait the red-purple cast of your vote.

Jackie: Is milum telling the truth? Did you really want to vote for #5?

Best regards,
WW

OK. If milum is telling the truth, then the results are as follows:

1. Just Plain Jody's definition = No votes, but I liked the definitions.

2. Real definition (the spheroid one that tsuwm and Cap Kiwi gave away) = 2 votes

3. AnnaS's definition = 2 votes; 2 points

4. Wolfaholic's definition = 1 vote (his own); no points

5. Jackie's definition = 2 votes (1 her own if milum told the truth); 1 point

6. Fish's definition = 2 votes (1 was Fish's own); 1 point

7. milum's definition = 3 votes (1 was the contender's own); 2 points

8. Rhubarb's definition = 0 votes

9. scalawag's definition = 0 votes

10. W'on's definition = 1 vote; 1 point



Results and Co-Winners:

Ms. Annastrophic with 2 points;

Mr. Milum with 2 points

Some dictionary [I forgot which one] with 2 points

Congratulations to the tri-winners.


Now, tsuwm, will you please run the next Hogwash and make it a registered round with rules posted. Also, will you please find a very nice, creepy-crawly obscure word for OCTOBER

Best regards,
One exhausted Wordwind

P.S. Edit: I thought prolate was a very cool word its being football season and all that. Not that I've ever watched a football game...

You might have used to have a round a week--and that sounds like great fun to me--but it takes a week to get definitions in and another week for shepherding in votes.

I agree with ASp#1: Jazzo--why don't you run a round or two between now and the creepy-crawly one?

Best regards,
WW

Oh yes Wordless Pigmaster,

I hesitate to mention that you concluded this odd round of
Hogwash Unauthorizento as you began it;

You failed in the end to assign definitions to your contributors as you
promised in the complete form as they were written. Remember?

Instead you assigned them numbers.

Why Dear Post Pig?
Is "Hogwash The Game" beyond you and all others that
by sex and nature are cursed with a gentle demeanor?
