Union Jack's Still There
Hoisted by Howie72
Er...just a min...what's this?

Sorry...this is not a wind up. Read this on a news article.

The Union Flag could be changed to include the Welsh flag to represent the country's "true place in the Union". Wrexham's Labour MP Ian Lucas wants the radical change to reflect the changing status of Wales within the UK. He wants to combine the Red Dragon or Ddraig Goch, from the Welsh flag, with the red, white and blue pattern of the Union Flag.

Back to business....
1. Howie72#5 UK. Courageously defended that flagpole.
2. julieanne123#6 USA The USA offensive was frightening.
3. Eebs USA You are going to be a big name here. I can tell.
4. mike32768#2 USA It's an invasion of yanks!
5. ryaman#10 USA Oh well done america.

Howie72 did well to stave off an onslaught. Biggest offensive the americans have managed to launch. Eebs is gonna need special treatment come next month.
My favourite Challenge player had to be TAR fan, Came in 10th...with 6 hours play left to go....must have gnawed his nails down to his elbows waiting to see if he held his place. And he did! Congrats TAR fan. You might have noticed I love the brave players best...the diehards.
Poor vivtriv...nakarinna and julieanne123 ganged up and nobbled him....got shunted out of the top 20. Waste no time on pity though....vivtriv is already back out there today and sprinting like the wind in an impressive 3rd place. Run..run run...I'll come out with a big stick and gaurd you. There...can't make a better offer than that.... but if I see too many americans piling in...I might chicken out.
And the Mogul?
Yesterday's Super Duper Sci-Tech Mogul was ryanknight USA

Yeh...too right....USA. ...are here to stay! (Excuse the inane chanting)
But I know something you don't. Well..you might have noticed if you regularly read the bonus list updates. No...USA have'nt swiped the lead...but aw shucks might have done if time had been on their side. 3 days ago the UK was leading by 250 points. USA have shaved it down to a measly 180 point lead now. I reckon another few days....a crisis might have been reached...a ruckus in the UK camp.
I noticed a few americans have craftily enlisted on the Mogul. One of which is sallyowens33....only played twice...won bonus goodies twice. Sallyowens33 you are definitely my favourite Mogul with an entrance like that.
The Mogul is usually the USA's arena....but not just now. I'm expecting some serious trouble there next month when the batllelines get newly drawn.

Quick gander over the parapet...and...mos623 and Mink have gone head to head today on the Challenge. Fab..love it....you two star players are the stuff heroic sagas are made of. Just so well matched....and fearsome. And the Mogul? Well vivtriv will be knackered...but with wakazawaka, Stuhern and Pix to fend off attack.....is hopefully OK.
And we have a new recruit to welcome. Hiya KentuckyGirl for the USA. Good time to join....get limbered up ready for close in skirmishing.

Right I'm off....Ta ta for now.
