MM & KM Links Games

[crofter]

This will be the fourth week of the reign of gen2 and several of you have been able to nail him once, but no-one has really been consistent in hurting him TWICE. Surely this week we shall see a hopeful contender for the July crown pull ahead of the pack!

And what a pack it is! I can see no fewer than EIGHT with an excellent chance of striking for home ~ namely Alibobs, bangor, JMR27, Dinkypuzzled, FoxLee, Jules001, kettledrum & lysander. Have you ever seen such an open contest? To make matters worse, there are eleven others only one point behind. More than once has the winner come with a late burst from this chasing group.

Lately, the Shrubbery Squad have done rather well by scoring double points for "first strikes" and this still appears as the optimal tactic for the aspiring champions! Let us see what happens tomorrow at 09.00 hours!

I am curious to see what hints are set out tomorrow. Last week there were more clues than an Agatha Christie detective story ~ and all were overlooked on the whole! Dare gen2 attempt to be so cavalier again? Only time will tell!

Don't forget the international sister game of KM Links, in which entrants try to anticipate the words in the Herculis Crossword. This is organised by seekerz from the land of Oz and starts at about 07.15am every Saturday morning! (Yes, that's am)

Until tomorrow then, this is crofter wishing you all "Good Luck"!

LONG LIVE THE SPIRIT OF THE MM LINKERS!!

Now we all know where pauline is tonight. :o)

[sarumite]

Nice one mazie ... should we tell her she's been spotted ?

[gen2]

No Mazie, all you'll get tonight are a few teasers / red herrings (and maybe a hangover). The real competitin starts with a new thread at 8:45 tomorrow morning.

But watch out - anything could be lurking in the shrubbery!

[mazie]

thank you jan, that looks grand. Mind you I dont think I should, I have to stay sharp for the links. I also thin k I may have to go to bed before all the fun starts :o(

[mazie]

Ah, I see. I have, however, been swatting up on the Auld Alliance. I'm out all morning, will I still get the chance to have a go at lunchtime tomorrow?

[mazie]

Hi sarumire, don't tell her it was me that spotted her, my running shoes are at the menders :o)

[gen2]

You can partake of as much as you like Mazie. All you need is one of these to clear your breath. The come highly recommended by my pal Andy.

I hitched a ride with the Snowbirds to check on the goings on, but can't see through all that cloud cover.

this is very cunning stuff, but I must away.

See you tomorrow xxxx

The game is open to any entrant up until 7 pm on Sunday but the early birds will pick up bonus points for being first with any correct answer. That is not necessary to win as I won in May without a single bonus point all month.

[sarumite]

Ont-ice ... what IS going on .. that's both you and gen2 who have posted censored piccies tonight !! lol (S0

[jan1956]

[Christiana]

I' m afraid this is hello and goodbye until tomorrow for me - busy day today and the same tomorrow, so settling for the indoor life this week - all the best to those in the shrubbery and have fun

[Ont-ice]

Bless you Sarumite. Where did you find that beauty? It was something like that I was hunting for but couldn't find.

[sarumite]

They are all around us Ont-ice ... here's a whole skyful of them ... http://fotodj.com/wallpaper/images/Snowbirds%2 02%20-%20Oceana%202002.jpg

Just enter "Snowbirds" on google Images and hey presto they fall from the sky !!

Like Christina it's hello and goodbye from me too. I am doing a stall at the church summer fayre tomorrow morning and was going to get everything ready tonight when I had unexpected visitors who have only just left, so I have got to start now when I just feel like going to bed!!Hope you are not too wet in the shrubbery and the camp fire keeps you warm. I will just have to suffer in my nice warm bed tonight!!!! See you all bright and early tomorrow (unless it's not too late when I finish tonight) Best wishes Kay

[Ont-ice]

Wonderful Sarumite. I did Google, but that was the best on offer on this side of the pond.
Evsajo. I'll be watching out for you in the morning. Enjoy your bed and awake refreshed.

Postscript to anyone who reads this:
O'm having problems with the site tonight. I type and nothing happens and I move my curser and nothing happens - there is a pregnant pause and then I'm back again. Is this happening to anyone else?
