Last weekend, elliemay1 was at the top of the MM Links Game leaderboard and was invited to set the challenges through December.
I am glad to say she accepted.
According to tradition, the setter is elevated to a more noble position for the purposes of the game and so 'Lady Eleanor' will post her introduction in Q&P at 8:45 tomorrow morning. The challenge will follow at 9:00. Early players have the most chance of claiming bonus points though occasionally, a link remains undiscovered until Sunday afternoon. All are welcome to play.
Our sister game, the KM Links is also to be found in Q & P tomorrow morning. It is based on highlighted answers in the Daily Telegraph GK Crosswords on Saturday and Monday. It is managed by Seekeerz and starts very early in the morning. Time of play doesn't matter in the KM Game because no points are time sensitive. Play any time before midnight Sunday for an equal chance of points.
I have to go now as I am due to attend a function (that is why this is being posted an hour earlier than usual) but I will leave the shrubbery open for you to socialise if you promise not to trash the place.
Trash, trash.
Good luck, lady Eleanor. I'll certainly have a stab at both games. Not sure what time, as it's my oldest son's 18th tomorrow, my daughter has three performances in a play and my youngest has a school bazaar (that's my weekend off).
Am also feeling in trashing mood....spent an hour yesterday packing Christmas parcel for son and family in USA, took it to P.O. today and discovered it was 126 grams too heavy for the 2 kilo allowance for small packet rate. Had to bring it home and re-pack into two smaller ones.
Still making slow progress with Gen2's quiz; we've got another 11 answers this week so slightly ahead of the required schedule. Twenty still to go. I'm sure it's good for the grey matter.
