it looks like we be needing only votes from Faldo and beck123 to complete this round in record time (but who's keeping track?).
by the bye, I posted this under my 'normal' rubric just to remind people that I are the hogmaster® - evidently someone is upset around discovery of my use of multiple IDs; I've been using 'hogmaster' here for hogwash™ games for over five(5) years. no ruse intended.

p.s. - Avy, "6"?? like in.. (counting..) 'f'?

Don't start without me!!! I vote for E, because there's only one among them that I'm SURE is wrong, and all the others sound like gibberish to me!
