KM Links Game - January week 5 results
13 Answers
Good morning everyone, as we round out the contest for the first month of the new year and if that's any indication of how fast the year's going to go, I'll start my Christmas shopping tomorrow and maybe I'll be organised just in time !!! I know, weird Aussie sense of humour, not funny at all !!!
Well, it was a very good month as the Leader Board will show - lots of points to lots of people and the matches this week were -
Bass Clef
Speed Boat
Lincoln Green
Hatchet Man
and needless to say, Speed Boat was the one where most tripped up - only three very astute players managed to grab the points for that one - namely ulysses100, cliffyg and Rose Maybud.
However there were no real 'hot shots' for the game, but 15 entries picked up 3 points each for their two correct matches and a further 27 picked up 1 point.
Ok there were a few who weren't able to score this week, but only a couple who, as mentioned last week, make an art form of this particular side of the contest and it's probably best just to let them get on with what they enjoy doing - but there'll be more on that later.
So I'll finish by saying Congratulations to all those who scored all those points this month and get this posted. Well done, everyone..........S

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.As we are at the end of the month, I thought I'd print up a complete list of points scores and I'd like to print the names of our comparative newcomers in capitals - to say welcome and also well done, because you are !!
The LEADER BOARD and the winner again this month, but she's not sharing,
with 12 points - chriss
close behind, on 11 points - evsajo, cliffyg & wickedtongue
10 points - Eiggam & MrsE
9 points - seekeerz & tearinghair
8 points - london_lassy, beejay1124, Elspeth, Prescott, keyboardix & nabob
7 points - lysander, deecee131, centrino, jobjockey, ROSE MAYBUD, KAWAKIRI &
HANDBAGLADY
6 points - jan1956, patchett, BRYHER, ulysses100, grannydi, chiefpanda, gen2, crofter, HIS LORDSHIP, Maygar & cpfcrosiel.
5 points - JRB, Grenmus, ShazzaHewat, ANGLER & Cleocima
4 points - SANDY- WROE, roslyn251254, joto, miss meg, devadiva, LADYH, stevie & eccles
3 points - mirandasmum, Fibonacci, BARB7771, ROCKFORDILL & teacher1
2 points - Strix, ladyalex, Mr & Mrs O, MIDDLESTUMP & ANIKOMO
1 point - Christiana, Dustybun, Aquagility, ChrisHewat, x-ray & twix123
and the winner of the free fall club for the month of January is kettledrum !!!
Most of you will remember the free fall club - bit like bungey jumping but without the ropes - I believe my near neighbours across the Tasman are responsible for the safe version, but there are a few ABers who, missing the adrenalin thrill of being in with the correct matches on the dot of 7.00am, now choose a different kind of thrill - how obscure can their answers be without completely jeopardising their chances of points - in other words, getting through the month scoring no points at all - strange, but true !!
More to come .......

Hell, I wish it would tell you how many letters you've used !!!!! Now I can't remember what I wrote - this is not good.
Perhaps I'll just go with the closing thoughts - have a good week everyone, and we shall reconvene here next Saturday morning, same time, same place for the fun and frivolity of a brand new month.....till then, cheers, Steff

Congratulations to chriss and kettledrum for topping and tailing the month.
Ya Boo Sucks to Strix! How careless of me to have scored one point!
Thanks Steff. I'm sorry you lost some of your spiel ~ we are the poorer for its loss. However . . . . on a practical note, when I do a longish blurb anywhere and because I too got caught out once too often, now, before I submit anything anywhere, I copy and paste it onto a blank e-mail and send it to myself. It has turned up trumps for me on a few occasions when I haven't had to try and remember Wot I Wrote!! :0)
