MM & KM Links December 2007 [Week 4]

[gen2]

This is the FINAL WEEK in the reign of Queen Kay the Proficient who has now mastered the complex art of launching the MM link words and who will capably demonstrate that last week wasn't just a fluke. Hopefully you have all enjoyed guessing the links as much as Queen Kay has enjoyed setting them.

Remember: The thread should be opened by Queen Kay at about 8.45 am. The MM Link Game should then be officially launched when she sets her four words to be linked at 9.00am.

The international version of this same game is called KM Links and kicks off at the unearthly hour of about 06.30am! Look out for seekeerz from Oz who provides the entertainment, refreshments and rule of law when dealing with that parallel game. In this case, the choice of words and their links are out of our control. They are the grey words chosen by Kate Mepham in her Crosswords in the Daily Telegraph on Saturday and Monday!

As you see, I have declared this to be the FINAL WEEK of this month's game - even though the calendar has 5 weekends. The setters and scorers deserve a break and many players may be otherwise occupied over the festive period. The sharp eyed amongst you will also have noticed that this wasn't posted by crofter which means that he is otherwise involved again this weekend and I, gen2, will be in charge of his abacus for the crucial climax of the December game - I just hope the beads don't get caught up in the tinsel.

I now have a few questions:- Will Psychic Pauline be able to hold onto her narrow lead? Will her head be clear enough to pick up the vibes after tonight's revelry? Will BigMac or slaney manage a sprint finish to overtake? Or maybe even an outsider?

I now declare the 'Shrubbery' open, and in the words of 'Aqua' "Lets go Party!"

Yes Strix, we certainly have to be wary of the Laydees - this is how I ended up last time:

and BigMac - does that Lem-Sip comment mean you will be hors-de-combat this weekend, leaving the field wide open?

[gen2]

This is more like what I need.

If you are thinking of coming for me, I think you had better be warned - I have an angry side to my nature.

I've just had a thought. Shouldn't there be five weeks in Queen Kay's reign as it is still December next Saturday too?

[paulineward]

I think they're taking a week off next week. Giving the abacus a rest! Kay's lying low tonight..no hints from her then!...I need to think of something to keep my lead!

[Strix]

Seekeerz had this pointed out to her at the beginning of this week relative to KM links and had adjusted accordingly.

But, let's be relaxed, it's like the lottery getting the link words right!

[Magyar]

Just as I was hoping for a couple of weeks to chase the current leader....whoever she may be !

[BigMac]

gen2 et al -

You just carry on having a good time......

I'll try and struggle through the used tissues to the newsagent in the morning for the KM game.... I can just about reach the PC to enter the MM game on time to try and grab a bonus point

<exits coughing and spluttering>

[paulineward]

BigMac.. I think you should have a long lie in tomorrow!
Take care of that cold...well at least until I have posted my links!! :-))
