The final round of May's game has now closed and I can reveal that BigMac's chosen links were:

SCRUM DOWN (Yes ladies, I had to look it up too!)
GOLD MEDAL
SQUARE ROOT
TEST MATCH

Two of those were very popular with players but the other two were more elusive. Even so, it was a high-scoring game with 47 points distributed.

Did anyone come close to challenging Manxiemo?
Who will be the setter for June?

See below to find out.

Firstly though, a big thank you to BigMac for agreeing to set the links this month although work pressures made it difficult at times.
We appreciate your input to the continuing success of this game.

All links were discovered in the first two minutes of play.

Ulysses100 was first with GOLD MEDAL with Manxiemo, beejay1124, fordward & middlestump ill in time for the bonus point.

Deecee131 then opted for the other popular link of TEST MATCH. Grannydi, rockfordill, Brenden, Manxiemo, Christiana & fordward all found the same link within the bonus window.

The clock was still at 9:02 when Rockfordill and Strix claimed their bonuses on SCRUM DOWN.

Strix also picked up the final link of SQUARE ROOT

There were 8 double-hitters this week with 5 of them achieving it with bonuses giving me a dilemma when choosing the hotshot.
Just one of them made their 4 points with the two most elusive links so for that reason I declare:

***** HOTSHOT FOR *****
***** THIS WEEK IS *****
*** S T R I X nebulosa ****
*** CONGRATULATIONS ***

In summary, this week's point scorers were:
4 fordward
4 grannydi
4 Manxiemo
4 rockfordill
4 Strix
2 beejay1124
2 Brenden
2 Christiana
2 deecee131
2 jobjockey
2 middlestump
2 seekeerz
2 twix123
2 ulysses100
1 2unicorns
1 baza
1 Handbaglady
1 kawakiri
1 kettledrum
1 regward
1 tonyav
1 wickedtongue
1 x-ray

Last weekend, Manxiemo was out on top with 12 points (6 ahead of the pack). As you see, she has added a further 4 points and thus remains 6 points clear of her rivals. A really convincing win, so without hesitation

*** CHAMPION FOR ***
***** M A Y * I S *****
* * * MANXIEMO * * * *
* CONGRATULATIONS **

The full results for May are:

16 Manxiemo

10 grannydi & rockfordill

8 Christiana & Strix

7 deecee131 & jobjockey

6 cliffyg, middlestump, roslyn251254, seekeerz & tearinghair

5 fordward

4 Brenden, patchett, twix123, ulysses100 & x-ray

3 2unicorns, Aquagility, Elspeth, Handbaglady, kettledrum & tonyav

2 beejay1124, cupid04, owllady & wickedtongue

1 Baza, boxtops, CHRIS-Hewat, evsajo, kawakiri, lysander, regward & SHAZZA-Hewat



So, with such an outstanding lead, I cannot do other than offer the position of setter to MANXIEMO who will return next week from Tavira for a double celebration, hopefully in time to set the links before Saturday.

*** THE SETTER FOR ***
*** J U N E WILL BE ***

We look forward to your contributions over the following (5-weekend) month.

Until next Saturday then,
Same time (9am)
Same place (Q&P)
Happy Linking

Thanks BigMac and gen2. That's six points more than last month for me... Well done to all scorers, particularly those in double figures. Amazing!
Thank you Gen2.
I look forward to Manxie the Mo's tail-less suggestions for next month!
Thanks gen.
Well, well! BigMac, sports fanatic, versus Manxiemo, knowing nothing at all about sport! Nevertheless, thanks BigMac, that I seemed to be on your wavelength this month.
Gen2, I shall not be back home until after next weekend - we are staying with Pauline for a few days on our return from Tavira - so I shall be asking you to post for me, please. Needless to say, Reg, Pauline and Christiana will not be able to join in next weekend either!
See you all next month - good luck to everyone!
Well done all, especially Mo, thanks BigMac and gen2 a good month for me, far better than KM
