Union Jack
Hoisted by midgetmark
1. midgetmark UK...6 In A Row...Keep sprinting!
2. BB1#3 USA... and tied on 20 seconds...
3. jules44#1 UK...and also tied on 20 seconds
4. Eebs#2 USA...and er...I repeat...tied on 20 seconds
5. paper aeroplane UK...a hiccup...but only 1 sec behind.

How close was that! The ground shook as they all romped in...fighting to claim that flagpole...Hey midget..get the feeling the net is closing? You might have to scamper in supersonic mode to keep the hounds at bay from now on. Just about everyone is getting snappy and fast. Still..it made for a 3/2 for the UK...and another fine win too...never mind that coquettish smile from Old Mona...Britannia or Lizzie Windsor (Battenburg...no relationship to the cake) will be wearing one too.
My fave Challenge player was FANS... a relative newbie...but what a good player. Got a PB and was just nudged out of the top 5. Had a peek at the stats and decided we have a new future threat to watch here.
I have another player I admire...can you guess? It's BB1#3. Has been playing tug-of-war with WorldB for top american spot. She swiped it back and is top americano in the Challenge! Good girl...but be careful...WorldB is devilishly clever.
Now....I'm no tactician but either I've missed something or ..private one-to-one duels are out and ambush and bash are in...get this...
Quiz_Beagle UK is valiantly nipping at bernie73 USA...who has julieanne123 USA coming to help.
Deborah USA and sparklingwine UK are trading punches...with poolosopher USA sneaking up...see what I mean?
Marsalinator USA and solan_goose UK are grappling but UK sniper Wetherby_Pond is in firing range.
And then...in one dangerous trench it gets messy ...it makes my eyes water and brings on a panic attack. You can see if you dare look a heat haze..with WizardOfOz bravely infront of a 30 strong pack where stopping to think, or stopping for breath can be fatal. DON'T DO EITHER...or you'll be trampled and fossilized in the mud...a fallen hero we can mourn. The list of fighters is long..it's dotted with dead deserted trenches...and you don't wanna be there.
Who's in most immediate danger?
burnsbaron V kjc... then twosleepy V purelyqing...
DR Gas v NEWSoUSA...don't be alarmed but there's a 8 strong american posse behind you. They're hunting in packs now. Picking off loners.
HQ is expecting high casulaties to be littering the course.

And the Mogul?
Yesterdays top Geography Mogul was miffy42#6 UK

Could this be the UK & Co retaliation...but then again... the americans are tough, unstoppable on the Mogul. Or are they? Since TT time began (tournament time) both teams have won 4 times. Is that well matched or what?
BUT...the UK have'nt won since February.
My fave Mogul was solan goose....another little non-human...snatched a PB...and paddled home in 10th. Not easy yesterday either..only 19 of you won goodies...the rest got lost on the geography course.

Time for a quick peek over the parapet....waving my white flag...
The UK are fighting fit I see and building a barricade....waving the flag is sparklingwine....with support from Quiz_Beagle...Kick...Stuhern...
WizardOfOz...flicker123 and solan_goose. And on the Mogul...magijoh1 is defending the lead...standing shoulder to shoulder with Quiz_Beagle...
sparklingwine...Kick and StuHern. My...aren't we cheeky and putting ourselves in the firing line.....Wake up america...there is work to do!
