MM and KM Links February 2012 Week [1]

[gen2]

ATTENTION PLEASE - CALLING CENTRINO: - Please See Below

Forgive me, but the MM links game has a minor crisis at the moment.
At the end of January, there were three players tied at the top. In order of decreasing time since they were last setter, they were:
Lysander (Apr 2008)
Centrino (Feb 2010)
Beejay (Mar 2011)

Lysander declined the offer for understandable reasons.
I then offered the crown to Centrino, but he never contacted me. Centrino - please email me before the close of this weekend's game (7pm Sunday) to get in touch on

Beejay, please stand by as a reserve.

The game will start as usual tomorrow morning at 8:45 with the introduction and the four challenge words will follow at 9:00.
It is the start of a new month so everyone's scores have been reset to zero - a level playing field for February. Every match you can guess scores a point and an extra bonus point goes to the first discoverer of each link and also to anyone else guessing the same answer within 2 minutes of that discovery. Anyone can play and new players are welcome. Just look out for the MM Links Game thread in Q&P tomorrow.

Why not also try your hand at our sister game of the KM Links (based on the Daily Telegraph GK Crosswords) which is launched by Seekeerz early on Saturday in Q&P. No time-sensitive bonus points there to no rush is necessary.

Talking of 'rushes' I have sent the bouncers home early (the bank balance is getting low) so when the shrubbery gates are opened (ie now) I expect an orderly queue and not a mad rush. Sorry my free drinks weren't to your liking last Friday ;-) blame the same bank balance.
Maybe we could raise funds by offering hints to the links?

Tomorrow's links will be on the subject of . . .
Maybe not - I think my email account has been hacked by The NOTW and there may well be Paparazzi lurking behind every bush.

The Shrubbery gates are now open.

Goodnight Kay.

I went out today after playing golf (on ice!) and bought a kingsize duvet being fed up with the normal double not having enough overhang and leaving gaps for the air to get in ;-)

Well I am going to sneak past you all...crawl inside and lie in wait, with my hot water bottle and crossword. :-))
See you all in the morning. x
Last one standing...please put the fire out, by whatever means you feel fit! :-))
