MM & KM Links September 2008 [Week 2]

[crofter]

Tomorrow morning brings the start of Round 2 in the Reign of King Wickedtongue the Generous during which I believe the points will flow [as last week] in ample numbers. Once again, the (Para)Olympics are well underway and I am filled with admiration for the competitors. Their endeavours have inspired me to embark on my next DIY project and decorate the third bedroom in the Croft. This will be my first return to DIY in over three years ~ so wish me well!

With the excessive amount of rain and mud about, I wonder if there will ever be an Olympic Sport of Extreme Shrubbery Mud Wrestling. Tonight will be cold and wet around the Buddleias, but I have every faith that the Shrubbery Squad will brave the elements and contend for the bonus points for being first (or within two minutes) to predict a correct link word. This contest should be opened at 08.45 and the chosen words to be linked declared at 09.00 tomorrow morning. I honestly think that the extra effort will be worth it!

For the REALLY early birds, look out for seekeerz who hails from Down Under in the Land of Oz and volunteered about two years ago to score the sister game (called KM Links) which will be nearly two hours old by the MM launch time! Yes, that's right ~ the KM Links Game kicks off about 07.00am and attracts its special set of nutters, alcoholics and insomniacs in equal numbers!

Me? I'm crofter keeper of the scores for MM Links for my sins.

With a couple of entrants already on 6 points, you cannot afford to miss the start of Link Game. Newcomers are always welcome. You don't have to be insane ~ but it is a definite advantage!

Good luck for tomorrow.

What a good man you've got there...........I'm drinking mine whilst watching Johnny Cash on Sky Arts, he's been on most of the evening which has been brilliant. Another deary departed friend.

Whoops - should have been "dearly departed friend"

As for the links, going by my first efforts last week, trying for the obscure rather than the obvious, I won't be troubling the scoreboard again, should I get a chance to log on before going out partying!
