Well, there is a clear leader in the voting, but with three setters left to vote, it's not quite decided. About 2 1/2 hours left. I'll be back shortly after with the results and prizes.

Well, time is up, and as we have one clue well in the lead, I'm going to declare a winner. I was amazed at the quality of the clues for an unusual word. So many better than the Guardian's. Runner-up this week is Buddy @11 with two votes and several seconds/mentions. The winner is Jimmy with his subtractive anagram:

With no resistance the Ultras run riot in US city (5)

Congratulations. Ironically, Jimmy was one of the non-voters. Oh well, we all get distracted sometimes. I hope he checks in to find out he won.

Anyway, here are his prizes:

First a very serious look at the Tulsa Race Massacre,

Not quite as heavy, but this was my daughter's dance class. She's not in the video though.

And of course the moment you've been waiting for:

I was on a flight back here once, and it was delayed in Denver for a couple of hours. They played Tulsa Time over the PA.

Nice one jimmy. Thanks for hosting mprs (tho the version of Tulsa Time I posted in #32 is better, because it involves looking at Sheryl Crow).

Congrats jimmy.
Thanks darla. I had heard of the Tulsa Race Massacre, though (strangely) only a month or two ago.

Forgot to thank Paul for the (undeserved!) mention.
