MM and KM Links November 2009 [Week 3]
26 Answers
Good Evening AB Linkers, everywhere!
Oh dear, the unthinkable has happened, Crofter has abandoned his post and gone AWOL - right in the middle of his own month! Furthermore (prepare to feel jealous), I understand he will be soaking up the sun for a WHOLE week in Tenerife! Consequently the cavalry has been called in and I will do my best to supervise the MM game this weekend (+ opening the 'shrubbery' again next weekend). However, the game is still Crofter's - he has provided me with the files and all I have to do is post them at the appropriate times (providing my ISP is co-operative).
Assuming I don't sleep in, I shall be posting Crofter's opening remarks in Q & P at 8.45am tomorrow and the four words to be linked should be declared at 9.00am, when the MM Links game kicks off in earnest. Remember, play early if possible because first hits can gain bonus points!
The last few days have been hectic for me. My colour laser printer malfunctioned on Wednesday and (with the help of a 260 page service manual downloaded from the internet) I have had it in bits over the attic floor. The problem was with escaped toner getting where it shouldn't. Dyson proved too powerful and swallowed two screws in the process. It is now 2/3 back together but which screw goes where? Will it work ever again? Who Knows? Will let you know.

Remember, this is also the third round in the international version of this same game which is called KM Links and kicks off at 7:00 am (or very soon thereafter). In that game, the timing of your posting is deemed to be irrelevant ~ only the number of hits you are able to register. The regular organiser of KM Links comes all the way from Oz and goes by the name of “seekeerz”. As I always say ~ “Why not chance your arm at both Link Games?” They both remain open for most of the weekend and all entries are scored and entered on to master scoreboards.
Until I see you tomorrow ~ “Happy Linking”!
