I did not recieve 3 definitions, but time is up! So, PM me your guess: which of the following is the real meaning of

Xebec

1. Unexpected praise or unwanted compliments

2. A crossbeam used in barn construction

3. A weakness or eccentricity in someone's character

4. A small Mediterranean ship with three masts

5. A curly horned goat
Between being a full-time college student and working 20+ hours per week, I'm not able to be involved at LV these days, but I remain a loyal fan and look forward to a triumphant return sometime in the (probably distant) future.

I can't view the scoresheet. Google docs wants me to login.

Dramatic Readings of Bible passages


Some reason I decided to try to write fiction. And it sucked me far away from LibriVox into the world of writing, editing and blogging.

OK, here we go.

Xebec

1. (catrose) Unexpected praise or unwanted compliments (guessed by SarahParshall)

2. (LibriFoxy) A crossbeam used in barn construction

3. (SarahParshall) A weakness or eccentricity in someone's character (guessed by prwells32)

4. (REAL) A small Mediterranean ship with three masts (guessed by LibriFoxy, Breeze, and catrose)

5. (Breeze) A curly horned goat

I'm losing track of the score, so if someone less confused wants to update it that would be good...

Updated with the new score. :) I also added in the scoring rules so the person updating it can quickly refer to them. :clap:

Cat is STILL in the lead, great job! Anyone who'd like can head on over to the score sheet to see where we all stand, and if I missed one of your points just add it in. :roll:

Thanks to LibriFoxy, for setting this up!

Patrick (prwells32), your go. :mrgreen:

Enjoy Tom Swift? Perhaps you would enjoy a book about him meeting up with some Diamond Makers
Or perhaps you'd rather talk about music with children.
