[Fictionary] ballot -- DJENT! AMBERAT!

[fictioneric at inbox.com]

Fictioneers --

My sincere apologies, I pestered y'all for timely definitions and 
then didn't get the ballot out for weeks.

But we have a lovely crop of definitions! Please submit one two-point 
vote and one one-point vote, either of them for a djent definition 
and the other for an amberat definition.

Votes due by end of day next Saturday, 3 September?

Enjoy!
