while there were fourteen(14) very good def'ns this time, there were only eleven(11) votes. the def'ns must have been *too good. therefore, and to wit, I am going to execute the powers not so far vested in me and award bonus points for this round:

most convoluted def'n - milum (1 point)
best connection to reality - Bingley (1 point) http://www.vtour.ch/fasnacht/fasnacht.html
best use of word in a citation - jmh (1 point)
best assist by hogmaster™ - tsuwm (.17 point) [allowing for teD's misspell, frasgolia]
least likely def'n lifted intact from another word - tsuwm (.17 point) [from gyrus fasciolaris, fasciola]
most timely bluff (own vote) - Sparteye (-.42 point)
