I say to you - thanks and thanks and ever thanks : )
I had to google ‘suffle’ in order to find your site and it’s definition. I refer you to Shakespeare’s ‘Twelfth Night’, act III:

My kind Antonio,
I can no other answer make but thanks,
And thanks, and ever thanks, and oft good turns
Are suffled off with such uncurrent pay;
But, were my worth as is my conscious firm,
You should find better dealing.

It should read... "One who shuffles" See the last line on http://tergiversate.word.sytes.org/

Thank you for using my dictionary site.

Clearly, the word suffle is suffling - practising evasion. It's a self-defining word.

Andy - I think a lot of online dictionaries use the same source. The mystery begins when you try to define suffle:
