Some slight tweaks to the comp for 2020... 

Every week we're going to have a poll about the definition of a forgotten or obscure word. From the four options pick the definition you believe to be the correct one. Voters who pick the correct definition go into the draw for an El Pres Sampler!!  :party: (Drawn Tuesday morning, Brisbane time. Please note: Polls don't show on Tapatalk, but you can participate via a web version of the site)

NO GOOGLING OR DICTIONARY USE! We're using the honour system. It's just a bit of fun. If you know, you know. If you don't, have a stab in the dark or an educated guess (if you prefer that term). ;)

You may elaborate about your choice in the topic thread below if you wish but no posting of any official definitions, etc., that will give away the game for others. 

Now you know the drill, vote away! :thumbsup: Good luck and may this comp prove to be a fun palaestra that turns us all into better word-grubbers, if you know what I mean...

Yes! Always nice when deduction yields the right results.

Can’t even explain how or why I guessed that right. None of that matters, though, I don’t ever expect to see this word again.:D

Thanks to a college course I took a few years ago, this one stood out to me as the answer.

Rob does forget to flush time and again, usually when he's not bluffing at the poker table. Never does...

Always moving my Vegemite and spouting off about some planet we can't see.

What an antichthon!

 

If it's the poker thing then I am an anti-antichthon!
