Question Author
Roslyn was first out of the traps (again!) and immediately picked up two of the links for 4 points : COUNTY COUNCIL (which also earned bonus points for Christiana, ulysses100 & middlestump) and CLASS ROOM.
The fourth player, fordward, was the only player over the whole weekend to think of the music providers for social gatherings and choose DANCE BAND.
*** Congratulations *** (but not hotshot)
Tearinghair lived up to her name this week when frustrated by loss of her internet connection, missed out on a bonus point by just one minute.
The final link of HEART BEAT, clocked in at the fifth minute of play, was claimed by Brenden.
In all there were 5 double-hitters and I was wondering how I would choose between the for hotshot. I needn't have worried because around half past 1 on Sunday, the penultimate player, '2unicorns' swept up THREE links as the only triple hitter.
**** HOTSHOT FOR ****
**** THIS WEEK IS ****
* **** 2 unicorns **** *
** CONGRATULATIONS **
In summary, this week's point scorers were:
4 roslyn251254
3 2unicorns
2 albaqwerty (Mr)
2 Aquagility
2 Brenden
2 Christiana
2 fordward
2 kawakiri
2 middlestump
2 teacher1
2 ulysses100
2 x-ray
1 baza
1 ChrisHewat (Chris)
1 cliffyg
1 deecee131
1 Elspeth
1 joto
1 seekeerz
1 tearinghair
so the leaderboard now looks like this:
6 2unicorns
6 Brenden
5 Elspeth
4 Aquagility
4 kawakiri
4 middlestump
4 roslyn251254
4 ulysses100
3 Christiana
3 sibton
3 tearinghair
3 x-ray
11 on 2 points and
11 on 1 point
Still no clear leader so any of the above-named 12 players could come out on top after the final round next weekend. In fact, someone making an early clean sweep (10 points) could conceivably come from nowhere to claim the title. Who will it be?
All the more reason to play next Saturday and in particular, to play early.
Until then:
Same time (9am)
Same place (Q&P)
Happy Linking
