Hoisted by Eebs#4

1. Eebs#4 USA ....ripped up the pole like a rocket!

2. WorldB#2 USA....defended the pole from UK attack

3. miffy42#2 UK ....all romped in in a line...three leggedy
4. strnog1#6 USA....all 3 got battered
5. mos623 USA....all 3 got bruised

4/1 for the USA. Did you see them 3 all falling over each other ? Frightening stuff!....It was worse further down in the next trench with OldSpotPig ...kjc ...Georgia ...Deborah and Marsalinator all tumbling in on 30 seconds. I reckon OldSpotPig could legitimately claim Cruelty to Animals there!

This of course means my fave player was OldSpotPig...perhaps because I've also noticed that wherever there is trouble, you'll find our brave little porky.

There were a few private duels going on...

shadowzep managed to nip ahead of burnsbaron..but only by the skin of his teeth ....bet this guerilla war isn't over yet.

lg549 and poolosopher have both stopped to get their second wind. You have to admire the stamina of these two...it's getting like tag with neither giving ground to the other...leave it a day or two and they'll be back locked in combat.

Georgia quite magnificiently dropped kick and has scurried off.

solan goose basted..bested adumbldore40..rather efectively too I might add...but the real heroes have to be flopsy and twosleepy bounding up behind. Shot straight past and , well, what can I say, keep alert twosleepy you've gone and landed yourself right in it behind enemey lines.

alien8 and greyhunter were set for a showdown...Come on own up which one of you ducked out of the way first! Alien8 is now creeping up on trooper2196 (a prison gaurd in UK disguise on leave from hangar 51 do you think? Come to think of it I did see a weather balloon drift by)..and meanwhile greyhunter is on the scent of shoemike. I make no apologies for conjuring with your names. This is Seventh Heaven to a blogger.

Well done to glitterfairy for a masterly stroke of genius in batting milamtexan and leaving him/her at the mercy of skrizoo and jacky .

Please...don't play tug of war with ambushed players! Human skin and bone is not very tensile!

The Titans

Yesterdays top titan was poolosopher USA

Top 5 players and allegiances...poolosopher USA...Deborah USA...

sparklingwine UK...castortroy USA and flicker123 UK

Nice win there pool and it now brings you up to 5 wins in total. I'm thinking you'd be up there in the masive fight that's going to erupt if you'd managed to play more. The UK resistance is stronger here than on the Challenge...yes it is, so congrats to the UK & Co Titan hit squad for doing better...or suffering less depending on your point of view...east or west of the Atlantic. ..or even Southerly if you're a Commonwealth friend and esteemed ally.

Now,....same rule applies here. No tug-of-war with another player! This applies to Stu too. Marsalinator and Deborah are bent on running him down....which is permissible in Pengy Law. Flattening, yes...just no snapping in two and littering the course. It's messy to clean up.

The Mogul

Yesterdays fan music mogul was miffy42#2 UK

4 Wins In A Row for miffy42#2 ...wow...that's the first player in any tournament this month to reach 3 or more and earn our gobsmacked respect. Can he make it 5 today ? Can he! Oh, can't wait, will have to have a sneaky peek over the parapet to see how he's mogulling.

Argh....NOT 5 Wins In A Row for miffy.....pity.

The Survivors

Yesterdays steel sheathed winner was Surrealist#1 USA

Piranha was out culling victims. I have a heap of soggy tissues here in an honorary monument to the poor you's who were abducted, trapped in the Danger Zone.

Here your are...with the precious bonus goodies you won sacrificing your sanity for your country!

And let's not forget the one who just got away! That was sneaky cat brat63 who must be running out of her nine lives...aw well, maybe next month hey? Wonder if we'll ever see cat meat on the menu?

This means our cunning cat gets the distinction of reaching the

Final Frontier

along with 18 magnificent others...and here you all....and I'm watching you all...very very closely....biding my time to pick of stragglers and chuck you in the Pit ready for piranha. Will you all please eat lean healthy food from now on....we have to watch piranha's cholesterol levels.
