MM Links Results September 2012 Week 2

[gen2]

(Yes, I got the title right this time)

The MM Links game has now closed an I can reveal that King Fordward's choices were:

GREEN FINGERS
JACK HIGH
FIELD HOSPITAL
PLAIN SAILING

Yes, all links were found - eventually - and nearly twice as many points were awarded compared with last week. Details below.

[gen2]

Roslyn had a false start this week so it was the second player, Beejay1124 who found the most popular link of PLAIN SAILING and 2 points were gained by BJ himself along with tearinghair, rockfordill, Manxiemo, Strix and Christiana.

Beejay1124 was not just content with bagging one link and also laid claim to JACK HIGH for another 2 points.

The third link of lasted 9 minutes until Mr Albaqwerty came along for his 2 points.

The final link proved rather elusive and wasn't picked up until nearly 6pm when relative newcomer, 2unicorns, suggested FIELD HOSPITAL, a pairing that was never repeated.

Ten single points were later collected for 'Plain Sailing', 6 for 'Jack High' and 2 for 'Green Fingers'.


There is an obvious choice this week for 'Hotshot'.

*** HOTSHOT FOR ***
*** THIS WEEK IS ***
**** BEEJAY1124 ****
** CONGRATULATIONS **

. . . for being the highest scorer this week and one of just three double-hitters.
(the other two, kawakiri and seekeerz, also deserve a mention.

In summary then, this week's scorers were:

4 beejay1124
2 2unicorns
2 albaqwerty (Mr)
2 Aquagility
2 kawakiri
2 Manxiemo
2 rockfordill
2 seekeerz
2 Strix
2 tearinghair
1 albaqwerty (Mrs)
1 Brenden
1 Elspeth
1 Euphemia
1 jobjockey
1 Nibble
1 Ont-Ice(Mr)
1 patchett
1 paulineward
1 regward
1 Sheenamf
1 sibton
1 teacher1
1 x-ray

Apologies for the mixup over Manxiemo's points last Sunday. I have been doing eye exercises to train my eyes to travel in a straight line when traversing a spreadsheet page. Does it work? I doubt it.

[gen2]

That leaves the leaderboard looking like this:

6 beejay1124
4 albaqwerty (Mr)
4 rockfordill
3 albaqwerty (Mrs)
3 paulineward
12 on 2 points
12 on 1 point


Plenty of time for an 'also ran' to come through on the outside so be sure to tune in again next weekend.
Same time
Same place
Happy Linking

Thank you gen2, just glad to have 1 point, well done to beejat and all

[Christiana]

Hate to say this Gen2 but it's my turn for wrong points this week - alas I have not any! Your listing is correct, but not the 'mentioned in despatches'. Hope you didn't give me someone else's.

[gen2]

I've been out all day Christiana and didn't get home until 20 to 6 so these were done in a bit of a rush. I'll go and take a more leisurely check.

[gen2]

OK Christiana.

The list of point-scorers is correct. That is a direct copy - pasted from the spreadsheet - and you correctly don't feature in that.

The problem is the same as last week because the points column is over a foot (30cm to you newbies) from the names column. Obviously the eye exercises haven't helped. Those points belonged to our sailor, Aquagility, (one row below you) who obviously opted for 'Plain Sailing'. SORRY AQUA. Aquagility's points appeared correctly in the tables.

The tables are correct. I is just my waffle that went astray.

[tearinghair]

Thanks King Fordward and Gen2, and well done to all scorers especially Beejay1124.

[Aquagility]

I didn't say a word, Gen2! Anyhow, it's the points that count, not the plaudits.

[Handbaglady]

What a swizz this week - from joint HOTSHOT to zero points in one fell swoop. Well done to one and all.
