MM Links Results July 2011 Wk4

[gen2]

Another game over and just one more to go this month.

Did it all go swimmingly for you? Or did you fail to contribute to the gene pool?
Where were all the planes? Were the airline pilots all on strike? Or was that an error? We shall never know, it shall remain an unsolved mystery.
Another mystery - How few/many players were music lovers? Who didn't realise that CLASSICAL has 9 letters? and who "forgot" to tell him?

I can now reveal that the links chosen by 'The Ice Queen' (aka Ont-Ice) were as follows:

UNSOLVED Mystery
Pilot ERROR
Music LOVER
SWIMMING POOL

More below . . .

[gen2]

At just one minute past 9 and roslyn25125 dived in to colect 2 points for SWIMMING POOL. Owllady, lysander and deecee131 were quick enough for 2 points as well whilst 6 others crawled along later for 1 point.

Beejay1124 proved to be a true music aficionado (aka MUSIC LOVER) for his 2 points and then Handbaglady joined him for a single.

Centrino slipped up - sorry - slipped in PILOT ERROR as player #15 for the only points (2) earned on that link.

The MYSTERY didn't remain UNSOLVED for more than 14 minutes - finally cracked by Elspeth but lacked corroboration from anyone else.

With no double-hitters in this game, I therefore declare the
***** HOTSHOT OF THE WEEK IS *****
***** (MISS MARPLES) - ELSPETH ****

Points today are

2 Points: beejay1124, centrino, deecee131, Elspeth, lysander, owllady & roslyn251254
1 Point :- albaqwerty, boxtops, ChrisHewat (Mr), Handbaglady, JimJools (Mr), joto & mirandasmum

4 points: cliffyg, JIMjools, owllady, paulineward, regward, rockfordill
3 points: albaqwerty (Mr), ulysses100, x-ray

and 10 more on 1 point

As you see, it can still be anyone's month so be sure to tune in again next weekend for the deciding match of the month.


Just two or three odds and ends to finish up with.

1) A big welcome to new player noitall2. I hope you enjoy playing the game. Please bear in mind for future attempts, that in this game, all answers are from 4 to 8 letters in length,

2) Pauline may have to face the REGGIE MUSIC when he finds out she posted a 9-letter word for him without saying anything!

3) Next week's game will finish earlier than usual at 5 pm Sunday (most players have played long before that anyway) because we have been invited out for a meal. I'll remind you when the game is launched next Saturday.

Until then - Happy Linking.

So that's yet another blind week for me. If the weather holds I'm likely to be afloat next weekend - not that missing the final week would make a tad of difference!
But thanks anyway to Ont-Ice and Gen2. See you all in August.

[Elspeth]

Miss Marple (Elspeth) bows graciously at being chosen as hot shot of the week. Thank you Gen 2. Pity the rest of her attempts this month were rubbish! Will try harder.

Whoops...don't tell Reg! :-)
The Wards were rubbish this week.
