MM Links Results May 2012 Week 1

[gen2]

Firstly a BigCheer for BigMac. He stepped into the breach at the last moment and greated the agreed post in record time.

Now the game has closed, I can reveal that BigMac's chosen links were:

WORK MATE(S)
PLAY STATION
RESTLESS
BEAUTY SLEEP

I feel sorry for those who had the right idea but who sadly missed the mark: Sibton who opted for 'Work Station' and 'Play Mates' and tearinghair who went for 'Sleepless'.

With so many possible links for all the challenge words, it was not surprising that this was a low-scoring week - just 13 points in total. Were you one of them?
See below to find out.

Three links fell early on.

Deecee131 claimed to be RESTLESS at 9:02 for 2 points
. . . to be followed immediately by Aquagility on his PLAY STATION for his 2 points.

Mr Albaqwerty proved to be the only early player to have any WORKMATES (2 points)

The last link lasted most of the day because bright and fresh players no longer had thoughts of their BEAUTY SLEEP. That lasted until wickedtongue came along at 17:06 with that suggestion. Tiredness was obviously creeping up on others because shortly after that, 3 more players suggested the same, but for just single points.

In honour of discovering that last elusive point, I declate:
***** THE HOTSHOT *****
**** FOR THIS WEEK ****
*** IS WICKEDTONGUE ***

In summary then:
2 albaqwerty (Mr)
2 Aquagility
2 deecee131
2 wickedtongue
1 Elspeth
1 kettledrum
1 Manxiemo
1 twix123
1 ulysses100

What will BigMac have lined up for you next weekend?
Same time, Same place,
so until then
Happy Linking

Sorry, a couple of typos crept in there in my rush to get this posted on time.
Greated = Created

Nil points as per! Thanks to bigmac & gen2! See you next week with hopefully more points being donated!

[gen2]

Roslyn, if points are scarce again next week, then REST ASSURED that a little arm-twisting will be applied for week 3.

[tearinghair]

I second Sibton's sob! But thanks anyway BigMac and Gen2, and well done to those who did manage to see through BigMac's ruses.

[twix123]

Thank gen2 and BigMac, and well done the other point scorers.

[ladyalex]

Free fall for me...nothing new then.

Thanks to BigMac and gen2

[paulineward]

Thanks gen2 and BigMac. I thought I was being clever putting rest-oration, oh well.

[gen2]

Great idea Pauline. It could very well have been the winning stroke of genius but sadly it ended up in the bucket along with restRAIN, restRUNG and SINCErest.
