Question Author
True to form, the first player, Roslyn, found two of them for 4 points.
Rockfordill, deecee131, fordward, beejay1124, owllady, Christiana and Brenden were all within the permitted 2-minute window for a bonus point so 2 points each for MARCH HARE.
Beejay1124, owllady and Brenden likewise collect 2 points for CLOUD BURST.
Brenden went one better than that, being first to find RAIN GAUGE as well (2 pts) making a total of 6 points and making her the highest scorer this weekend.
The final link lasted until 9:27 when player #17, Jobjockey, decided that Princess Diana didn't like marzipan (so no Marchpane and no Simnel Cake) and instead opted for FRUIT CAKE (2 points)
Nobody matched it within 2 minutes.
From there on it was single points with a few scoring double hits but a worthy mention for a second treble hitter - Kawakiri - but only for 3 points I'm afraid.
For being the highest scorer AND a treble hitter, I therefore declare:
**** THE HOTSHOT ****
*** OF THIS WEEK ***
**** IS BRENDEN ****
