I've sent one.

Now you know why I get so frustrated!

I take some blame in this one. And, besides, so what? Four, plus Proof's and the real definition make six anyway. We can go with that.

Here are the choices for the definition of "debulliated". Make your selections beginning..........
NOW!
1. Concerning an unsealed proclamation.
2. To become dropped from the list of debutantes.
3. When a liquid is precipitated violently from the confines of a vessel.
4. To remove bullae (blisters that are more than 5 mm in diameter with thin walls and filled with serous fluid) from the lungs.
5. Having had one's larynx damaged or removed.
6. The sad result of a substandard corrida.
7. Describing a stock that has suffered substantial losses due to a recession.

Doesn't mean you can't pick a number. If any new members want to make a guess about which is the correct definition, just post your number here. No fair looking the word up, as if it can be found easily.

I'll guess 5, and sorry I didn't submit one. We were all preoccupied with visiting the new grandchild!

Wow. I was only guessing randomly but with all this support, including arnie, looks like it might have been a pretty good guess.

Well, I am sure it's 3, but I'll select 1 just to be cantankerous.
Hab, it's great to see you playing again!

Isn't cantankerous what you are when you have chancre?

Let's put this game out of its misery. The word wasn't as hard to figure out as I thought.
1. Concerning an unsealed proclamation opened by Arnie and read incorrectly by Kalleh.
2. To become dropped from the list of debutantes. No one fell for Asa’s entry.
3. A liquid precipitated violently from the confines of a vessel. I’m steamed that Asa, BobHale, Arnie and Haberdasher knew this defined the word.
4. To remove bullae (blisters that are more than 5 mm in diameter with thin walls and filled with serous fluid) from the lungs. Kalleh turned off everyone with this one.
5. Having had one’s larynx damaged or removed. BobHale muted Wordmatic with this one.
6. The sad result of a substandard corrida. This was bull by me.
7. Describing a stock that has suffered substantial losses due to a recession. And this piece of bull was also by me.
So let's move on to Kalleh's word, which cannot possible be as easy as this one.

Yes, please send me your daffys!
As for my daffy, except for those in health care, I think it could have fooled people. However, clearly my use of the parentheses was a problem. Thanks, Proof. Nice word!
