MM Links Game Solutions February 2007 [Week 4]

[crofter]

In a dramatic race for the Links Crown, the last four links chosen by Barbara (aka rogerr) with a TV theme are as follows:

News AGENT (or AGENCY)
Play GROUND
CLING Film
SOFT Soap

You lot must be tuning into the preferences of the setter, since all four links were spotted by the first FOUR entrants and the game was virtually over by 9.05am (after only five minutes of play!).

The "one minute man" lector claimed the first hit with PLAYGROUND and picked up the first of the bonus points. The same link (and the same recorded time) was claimed by wickedtongue AND (from the other side of the globe) by seekeerz.
Well done you three!

There's more! The sinister-sounding wickedtongue also brought in CLING FILM to claim a second double pointer! A real coup! This mysterious ABer has been scoring well on a consistent basis. By 9.03 came in Entrant #4 in the form of FoxLee claim SOFT SOAP and more bonus points.

The last link to fall was NEWS AGENT which managed to survive until 9.05 when Entrant #8, london_lassy, arrived on the scene in her usual perceptive manner!

All bonus points claimed, we move on.

Over the renaining field points were generally picked up as singles with the following exceptions. Special mention goes to Aquagility, Arabesque, gardenknowin and Paul21455, all of whom had double hits!

Most surprising is the SHOCK HORROR PROBE that our three front runners in evsajo, samurite & cliffyg all failed to add to their previous scores!

Hence the Hot Shot of the Week must be ***wickedtongue***

And well done you Slaney for the honourable mention in the league table. I think there's more to come from you! You're just warming to the task ! You and I could play havoc with links like BELL=FAST, LEPER=CORN, BAND=SHE and LOCK=KNEE

A disappointed Jetski who failed to get null points by getting soft soap, nearly went for cling film too.
Thanks rogerr and crofter,look forward to pitting wit with wickedtongue next week

Hi Rob ~ well done!
I'll respond tonight by e-mail from home. In the meantime if you can begin to set up at least two thematic sets of four words with possible links, we can move this part of the process forward at a brisk pace!

Hello Rob , welcome !
Looking forward to your words in March.


Very good, crofter; but I'm going to have to smarten myself up a bit before any danger of me setting the words -- Irish themed or not !
