Mm Links Results October 2013 Week 3

[gen2]

The game has now closed and I can reveal that Psybbo's chosen links were:

DRUM ROLL
BARREL ORGAN
GRAND PIANO
STRING QUARTET

Wasn't she kind to you all - more points handed out this weekend than in the last two games combined.
Even so, 15 players still managed to miss out.

For details of just who the lucky ones were, see below.

[gen2]

Evsajo was first to score with GRAND PIANO and a massive 7 others were also in time for a bonus on this popular choice. (beejay1124, ulysses100, grannydi, tearinghair, rockfordill, fordward & Brenden)

Grannydi was first with STRING QUARTET, another popular choice, with tearinghair, owllady, Brenden & jobjockey all in time for a bonus.

Tearinghair also claimed BARREL ORGAN - three down, and the time was still 9:01!

The final link of DRUM ROLL fared little better succumbing to Fordward at just 9:02. Brenden and jobjockey were in time for a bonus as well.

Out of those, you may have noticed that two names have been mentioned three times meaning that we have two triple-hitters on full bonus points. In fact we had a later triple-hitter (with 3 single points) when CHRIS-Hewat, back from a spell away, claimed three for himself.
Joint hotshots then for the two 6-point scorers:

***** HOTSHOTS FOR *****
***** THIS WEEK ARE *****
**** T E A R I N G H A I R ****
**** AND B R E N D E N *****
*** CONGRATULATIONS ***

In summary, the point scorers this weekend were:
6 Brenden & tearinghair
4 fordward, grannydi, jobjockey
3 CHRIS-Hewat
2 beejay1124, deecee131, evsajo, owllady, rockfordill & ulysses100
1 baza, boxtops, cliffyg, cupid04, Elspeth, kawakiri, pixie373, seekeerz, tonyav, twix123 & x-ray

All that makes it very exciting at the top of the leaderboard where we have joint leaders of grannydi and tearinghair with Brenden close on their heels.

LEADERBOARD
10 grannydi
10 tearinghair
8 Brenden
5 fordward
4 beejay1124
4 evsajo
4 jobjockey
4 kawakiri
4 ulysses100
3 CHRIS-Hewat
3 seekeerz
3 tonyav
10 on 2 points
8 on 1 point

That is just about it for another week except to say 'if at first you don't succeed, try, try and try again.
Onty had given up trying to get a new avatar but I see now that she has a spanking new one so it worked for her.
If you have had three weeks without points, don't give up, you might come up with a full-house next weekend.
That will of course be the final one for October.
So until then,
Same time (9am)
Same place (Q&P)
Happy Linking

[Psybbo]

Thank you Gen2, are you still in Brighton?

[tonyav]

Thanks gen.
Yay I've now got three points.

[Psybbo]

Well done tony

[gen2]

Yes Psybbo, still in Brighton. Leave Monday afternoon for Cambridge and then expect to get home on Tuesday evening.

[Psybbo]

It's always good to get home again :-)

[Onty]

Thanks Psybbo and Gen2. Once again we don't seem to be on the right wavelength, but will keep trying. We're hoping there is a boobie prize. :-))

[boxtops]

thank you for my point!

[tearinghair]

Thanks Psybbo and Gen2. And would you believe I changed my mind from drum roll!

[Psybbo]

Aw tearinghair, you could have had a full house!

[tearinghair]

That noise you can hear is the sound of cookies crumbling the wrong way....but I'm very pleased with my six points.

[BigMac]

Miserable failure yet again... ah, well.

Congrats to the scorers and thanks to Psybbo and the peripatetic gen2.
