Stars & Stripes
Hoisted by tihata#6 USA
1. tihata#6 USA Did it feel good...scurrying up with that flag
2. jules44#1 UK Not today jules44..you got beat.
3. MaggieG#4 UK But the UK repelled all other invaders
4. julieanne123#8 USA Well...almost. Nifty bit of work there
5. Little Heaven UK I'm cheering here...for my MOP
Well well....the USA are determined to keep nippng at the UK & Co heels. Good work tihata and julieanne123....you're a credit to your team. But oh, my favourite Challenge player just had to be Little Heaven and I don't think anyone here would disagree with a round of applause. What a stunning performance and a PB...you're certainly living upto your title...MOP. Well done. One of my little proteges...aw. My eyes are filling up.
Gotta be dry-eyed now...gotta be tough as you players...players like julieanne123 who bopped vivtriv and raced past, bagging badly needed points for the USA.
And another USA victory for shadowzep who downded sparklingwine AND wakazawaka . Tough tactics...need to be...the USA situation is dire and desperate. National pride could be at stake this month...yanks might have to hang their heads in shame. ...and are probably already hatching new tactics for next month...year even. There...that was to boost their morale...did I do good or did I do good? UK & Co need no pep talks...they've been tops all month.
As I scan the table I'm tempted to wax locqacious again...as I do. Jules44 and miffy42 are both tied on 7 wins each...ah...Penguin Law dictates that in a tie I'll see who managed to best most competitors to become the months Daily Dervish.
And the Mogul?
Yesterdays History Mogul was WorldB#1 USA
Good one WorldB....america's top rank and proving his calibre. My favourite Mogul player was shadowzep...got a PB...I know because he was chuffed and posted it in the itty bitty comment box. So would I too if I could do it. You're all dead smart and you're always amazing me with your spiffy times.
Competitions been going now since July....Challenge has anyway and I'm in a sentimental mood. Did'nt know when I started it if a stupid penguin would appeal to smart humans.
So I had a peek and here are the smartest of 2007...the ones with the pressure on to deliver the goods... balancing precariously on their thrones, fated to keep peeking over their shoulders spying for the new talent lurking in the trenches, plotting to dethrone them.

A big round of applause for all these players....but you know...champ or not...winning team or not....a trooper or a civvie like myself...you know I have to say....Thanks to you all for playing. Can't have a competition without competitors and I reckon you are the best on FT.
Ain't it been fun. I've certainly enjoyed myself...albeit sometimes forced to duck down behind the parapet when the fighting hots up...
Which is where I am now...so resist temptation and please don't target me...
