Question Author
The next nine entrants (once again) all proved pointless before Magyar shuffled the deck and produced the last link with FACE CARD for the final award of TWO POINTS. With seven entrants tying for a top score of Two Points, I single out Magyar for correctly predicting the very last link-word and so Magyar becomes eligible for the title of HOT SHOT OF THE WEEK.
*** Let trumpets sound and canons roar ***
*** The peasants cheer and shout “Encore” ***
The League Table after this second week is:
SIX POINTS: Aquagility, lysander, owllady, patchett & tearinghair
FOUR POINTS: cliffyg, Dustybun & paulineward
THREE POINTS: Magyar, teacher1 & wickedtongue
TWO POINTS: beejay1124, centrino, Dinkypuzzled, Elspeth, gen2, Grenmus, jan1956, jobjockey, joto, mirandasmum, slaney, Strix & x-ray
Ten others are on ONE POINT.
If anything, the field of front-runners has begun to bunch together in preparation for the long sprint home. The top of the leader-board reads like a “Who’s Who in MM Linkland” ~ with the single exception of relative new-comer owllady. Has she got the “here withall” to put this game to bed? Will she fulfil her early promise? Why don’t you tune in next week to find out?
For now, this is crofter signing off.
Until we meet up again: HAPPY LINKING!
