KM Links, Monday 26 November.

[Aquagility]

The sun's over the yardarm, so show a leg all of you.
Kate's link words today are:

Keep SAKE
Spaghetti STRAP
SHRINK wrap
SMOOTH newt.

And newt for me again.

Hi AQ you beat me to it - admittedly I'm running late, been out all day, and looking at the links - newt for me too !!!

Will now go check how everyone else fared and who is the winner

[jan1956]

Thanks AQ and steff

Well at least everything seems to be working today - we can find the site - that's a good start.

Kate, I'm afraid, was up to her 'sneaky' tricks and the results where we're all concerned became a famine instead of the feast I was hoping for,

Keep Sake went in within the first minute with DizzyLizzie & freebi2 taking the bonus points.

JMR27 was the next to pick up bonus points for Spaghetti Strap then there was quite a lull in proceedings and I was becoming concerned for the plight of Shrink Wrap and Smooth Newt, then at 8.22 kettledrum came in and snared them both and the remaining bonus points.

Then everything almost went into reverse gear, with a point here and a point there - Magyar, cpfcrosiel & eccles were the only three to pick up 2 points for good guesses
while 15 others each picked up one point.

And so to the Leader Board - at the end of scoring there were three tied for first on 9 points and the count-back method had to be employed to decide the winner -

1st: DizzyLizzie [ with 4 matches ]

2nd. jan1956 [ with 3 matches ]

3rd wickedtongue [ with 9 good guesses ]

4th & with 8 points miss meg


7 points lysander & MalcolmR

6 points Aquagility, brizzer & london_lassy

Congratulations everyone after what has been a rather difficult months scoring, looking back over the past 4 weeks, they haven't been the easiest of links, but at least it keeps us all on our toes, so better luck next month, which incidentally starts next Saturday, when I hope to see you all again. Till then, all the best from the upside-down universe

[jan1956]

congrats to dizie lizie
well done some of the links were not easy this month
thanks again to Steff for adding it all up and Sarumite (who we think has been banned again)
he must write one hundred lines before being allowed back!
and AQ for putting the links on early before most sane souls get up

Sarumite - Missing?

Locked up, methinks, for drunk driving of the Shrubbery Double-Decker!

I de-bussed a few stops from home so as to get some fresh air to dispel the fumes before the inevitable mashing from the mem-sahib.

Congratulations to DizzieLizzie!
I said last month that it was just beginners luck that I won - I think I got about 1 point this month and a big fat 0 this week. Ah well there's always next month.

[seekeerz]

and now the site seems to be throwing a hissy fit !!! I've tried a couple of devious ways to get into it, but no way at present

[joto]

It has already played up for me - I made the mistake of refreshing the page. I had to close it down then open it again!

[Strix]

I'm on an Apple Mac computer and I have Safari, Firefox and Internet Explorer as search engines with Firefox being my favourite. I have this site bookmarked on all three and when I get that blasted "time expired" message I get a panic attack it is talking about me rather than the website!
So what I do is switch to one of the other search engines and try again. Sometimes it works sometimes it........
I know of no other website where I have this problem.
Most frustrating.

[Dizzy Lizzie]

I have finally managed to get the site to open.
Thanks for the congrats but it's more by luck than judgement.
A special thanks to Steff, Aquagility & Sarumite for their sterling work.
I look forward to next month.

[sarumite]

Yippee !!! I'm back. (S)

[Aquagility]

Welcome back, sarumite. This is the first time the b. site has deigned to open in the past hour!
And now a new trick - there is an appreciable delay before what I have typed comes up.
Damn. Time to go, I think!

[Christiana]

Another obscure session from Kate leaves me a good candidate for the free fall club, but congrats. to those inspired giants who scored. And welcome back Sarumite - you were sadly missed both on the bus and the site, which is becoming more and more like the Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland.

[Prescott]

Thanks Steff and Aquagility for your efforts.
A big ZILCH for me again I'm afraid.
I'll have another go next week.
