KM Links Game - September week 2 Results

[seekeerz]

Good morning all - this week we're on deck and all organised bright and early and ready for action, in fact quite over the moon after discovering I actually scored a point on the MM Links - wonders will never cease !!!

[sarumite]

Good morning Steff ... trust you are back on top form.
Well I scored zilch on MM links and I'm keeping up the good work with another complete failure today, so won't be bothering your counting beads!!

Links today are:

PATIO ROSE
SCOOP NECK
WATER MEADOW
HARVEST MOUSE

So it's over to you young lady ! See you later (S)

[bridgenut]

Thanks Sarumite , I won't be bothering the abacus this week . What rotten words .

[seekeerz]

would you like to check that again, me old china - I remember there was a Pipit in there somewhere, so where did it go ????

[bridgenut]

words were
Patio
Scoop
Pipit
and
Harvest

[seekeerz]

yes, thanks, bridgenut, that's what I thought - looks like the bird has flown lol

[sarumite]

Oh dear .. I'm losing it ... scrap Water Meadow, it should be MEADOW PIPIT !!
Without wishing to confuse you I put in "water" from one of my guesses on Saturday !!

makes no difference to my score, still a big fat zero
thanks for the links S and to steff for the scoring, hope others did better than me

it's ok sarumite, I know it's early in the morning -gee, I'm glad I'm here, I can feel a clip on the ear coming on !!!


actually, I thougtht that's what it might be but figured I'd better wait and check before scoring

[sarumite]

I shall stand in the corner with the big pointy "D" hat, and write 100 times " Could do better" :O(

[seekeerz]

oh cheer up and you looked much better in the nurses uniform - trouble was the knobbly knees !!!

funny thing - they said "tends to fiddle and play" when I was at school !!!

[seekeerz]

Have now sorted the abacus - I've inherited crofter's second hand one, think it blew a fuse at some stage - and the worry beads out, so here goes for this week -

All Kate's matches were quite popular with the possible exception of Patio Rose, which I should have thought of, having just managed to kill one off, with TLC.
The three others all went very quickly with Meadow Pipit being the first to go with ulysses100 & cliffyg taking bonus points.

Next to go was Scoop Neck with slaney & then lysander who really did well, collecting bonus points for Harvest Mouse as well.

Bit of a lull then till JMR27 came through with Patio Rose to take the last of the bonus points for the morning.

A steady number of good guesses gained two points for DizzyLizzie, Magyar, cpfcrosiel, fordward, rogerr, paulineward, wickedtongue, Paul21455, ShazzaHewit, MeadowLane, brizzer, Elspeth & eccles. and quite a few rounded off the scoring with one point each.

more to follow......................

[seekeerz]

Moving right along - now to the leaderboard -

on top with 7 points is slaney adding 3 points to last weeks score of 4
next with 6 - DizzyLizzie & lysander
on 5 points is bridgenut
on 4 points - ulysses100, cliffyg, freebi2 & MeadowLane
and on 3 points - wickedtongue, rogerr, JMR27, Paul21455, ShazzaHewit & eccles

This could prove to be a very interesting comp with a number jostling for the top of the heap position - congratulations everyone, and roll on next weekend.

Well I managed 1 first for ages I think. - Thanks Steff for the scoring and your Herculis should be there now.

[JMR27]

Good morning to all. I managed to get 2 right - quite a boost after being a complete duffer for ages.

Well done to everyone who scored and many thanks to Sarumite and to Steff for doing the sums.

[kettledrum]

Well, it's no score for me again, but I'm a happy bunny all the same this week as Gen2 has named me as Hot Shot of the Week on the MM game. Well done Slaney for increasing your lead, and thanks to Sarumite and Seekeerz without whom this lovely game wouldn't happen.

[slaney]

Pleased to get some points to make up for my total lack of success on the MM links!
Thanks to Steff for keeping tally, and to sarumite for his early words.

[Ont-ice]

Well done, Slaney.
Steff. Sorry to hear that you inherited Crofter's abacus. We've been trying for that as the boobie prize for the longest time ever and still in the running with zilch points this week, too. Wonder what the new boobie prize is now that the abacus is gone?
Thanks Steff for keeping score and thanks Sarumite for giving us the words we didn't actually have.

Hi Steff, SHAZZA here! Thanks for the plaudits, however, we will not be able to make it next week - off down South for a long w/e but will be with you all in spirit and back in 2 weeks time, God willing!!
