MM & KM Link Games September 2011 Week 3
23 Answers
Welcome to The Shrubbery - the place for schemers, plotters and planners. Those just wanting to have a good time are welcome as well as long as the empties are cleared away afterwards.
We are now into week 3 of Manx Queenie's challenges for the MM Links Game. She will once again reveal some biographical details before revealing her 4 challenge words. Some of her links have been rather elusive so far and players are struggling to get on her wavelength. Maybe this week will be the one where you click?
The introduction will be posted at 8:45am in Q&P, followed at 9:00 with her 4 challenge words. You have to guess what words he has chosen to pair with these to form a well-known word or phrase. To make it easier, they are all from 4 to 8 letters long. Anyone can play, so join in whenever you want to but early players stand more chance of bonus points.
My role in this is as coordinator and scorer for the MM game, but that nearly didn't happen last weekend because I was struck down by a nasty 'flu' bug and spent several days in bed. I am now mostly recovered and should be on top of things once again. Looking back, I am surprised that I managed as well as I did under the circumstances - just a couple of bonus points missed off which will be remedied on Sunday's scoreboard.
Dont forget our sister game, the KM Links based on Kate Mepham's GK crosswords in the Saturday/Monday Telegraph. That game is run by Seekeerz from Australia and kicks off at 7am. Don't worry about the early start there, the bonus points are not time-sensitive in that game.
The shrubbery is now open - there is no bar, so it is strictly BYOB. For those with pockets extending beyond 'screwtops', they will find a corkscrew behind the Heliconia (where else?).
