17th May Shout Box


Stars & Stripes is back
Hoisted by WorldB#2

1. WorldB#2 USA Zipped past...held grimly to the flagpole
2. jules44#2 UK Couldn't dislodge him..but good try.
3. BB1#5 USA Have you reserved 3rd place for yourself?
4. Eebs#1 USA It's either USA day or girls day.
5. Maggie#3 UK Hah,... the warrior queen! 4 girls in top spots

Did you feel a little outnumbered jules ...but then again you can always depend on Maggie. 3 out of 5 for the USA....or...4 out of 5 for the girls. Did you have your hands full WorldB?
My fave Challenge player was burnsbaron ( and his butler, Dudley)...you know they're always consistently good and it's paying off. Nipped into the top 10 yesterday and fought their way into the Top 25 Toughies too.
Alert from penguin: Take care magijoh1 as Turnbaby is gunning for you.
Funny...I've noticed everyone's travelling in a posse just now. Must be a safety in numbers thing, gaurding each others' back. Don't blame you either..get stranded anywhere in the table on your lonesome and you become an easy target for an opposing sniper.

And the Mogul?
Yesterdays smartest People Mogul was midgetmark#1 UK

2 In A Row for the little midget. Bet he can't manage three...the competition is too stiff. My fave Mogul was greenkiwi...nabbed those oh so important bonus goodies and I'm keeping a close eye on things. Fact is the USA was 600 points ahead...after adding on latest stats it's 620.
But....wait...there are 2 ways of interpreting this. (As every Machiavellian politician will know but never admit.)
The american perspective: The UK can try but they will never catch us...never mind overtake us.
The UK & Co perspective: It's a war of attrition...the deficit used to grow by 70 to 100 points. ...now it's only 20. We will survive..we are halting their advance....or halting our own retreat (which sounds better?)...soon we will reel them in and then win.

I'm itching with curiousity to know so in a few days I'll peep at the Challenge situation. That battlefield is usually firmly under UK domination. Doesn't this give you little butterflies in your tummy...it does me.
Quick peek over the parapet and oh well done Little Heaven....bravely clinging to the Challenge mast after tearing down the Stars & Stripes. That's it...throw it to magijoh1...just don't let an american get hold of it and hoist it back up! And the Mogul? Gee magijoh is busy there aswell. Must say you're playing well today...and trooper2196. Don't think the americans will take this lying down. I'd better whizz over with my slingshot and gobstoppers/jawbreakers.
