Mm Links Results June 2013 Week 2

[gen2]

The game has now closed and I can reveal that Manx Queenie's chosen pairings were

PROPERTY MARKET
HALL MARK
DRESS CIRCLE
FAMILY TREE

Were those your choices?
Over 40 points were awarded - were you one of them? Find out how you did below.

The first link to fall went to the first player, Ulysses100, who was quick to leave his mark with HALL MARK. Tearinghair and Strix were also in time for a bonus point.

Fortunately, BigMac then recalled his days in the theatre and opted for DRESS CIRCLE, for which Cliffyg was also in time to claim a bonus point.

Strix then remembered where he was perching and who owned it - it was his FAMILY TREE. Roslyn151254, owllady, Aquagility and cliffyg were all within the two-minute window for a bonus.

Still with the clock at 9:02. the final link of PROPERTY MARKET was claimed by Owllady.

On such a prolific week it was not surprising to find SEVEN double-hitters. Not only that, we had TWO triple-hitters. I cannot choose between them - both were for 3 single points and both were for the same three links so therefore we have joint hotshots this weekend.

Oh. I missed quiz completely :'(

[gen2]

Pixie, We are always in Q&P on Sat 9 am with an intro at 8:45.

Handbaglady. Were you right to stick with your answers or should you have changed?

[tearinghair]

Thanks Manx Queenie and Gen2. I read your Friday evening post just after I'd entered, and thought you'd dropped some fairly large hints; I would have chosen Dress Circle and Family Planning, so only part right!

[lysander]

Many thanks for the joint honour. My Saturday routine has changed over the past few weeks so I am not around at 9am and often have to miss playing the MM game. Despite entering late I was lucky to pick three winners.Regards Lysander

[Handbaglady]

Woop woop 2 whole points. Well done triple and double scorers.

[Psybbo]

Failed miserably this month :-(
Thanks gen2 and Manx Queenie

[pixie373]

Ok. Thanks gen2 x

[gen2]

Yes tearinghair, (It was yourself rather than handbaglady to whom I referred.)
Hints? Me? Any connection between my Friday post and the game answers is purely coincidental.
