6th August Shout Box

Union Jack

Hoisted by miffy42#2

1. miffy42#2 UK...miffy was under seige!

2. Surrealist#1 USA..hmn...he's going to be dangerous this month

3. BB1#3 USA..and so is our Sole Survivor champ

4. mos623 USA...well hello there.

5. mike32768#8 USA ...and all nipping at miffy's heels.

4/1 for the USA. Cor miffy are you feeling the pressure yet? Think that was a planned and failed USA ambush and kidnap attempt? Gee..they charged in so fast seismographs all over the world were going haywire.

Methinks Surrealist is after the Challenge crown..and mos623 is always a threat. Mos623 is still the only american to have won it. Ever. Tis true...I kid you not. I always used to give him the pengy Kiss of Death...unintentionally of course... so I'll zip my beak now.

My fave challenge player had to be AnneBonney , ...but...pollygw put in a cracking performance too and so did skrizoo. And Deborah needs watching with a beady eye...she's in top notch form at the moment. Invincibles get truly galvanized and go ballistic if they get demoted you know...

The Titans
Yesterdays top Titan was Deborah USA

Top 5 allegiances...Deborah USA...Stuhern UK...Qmel USA...

Marsalinator USA...castortroy USA

$/1 for the USA. Sorry I hit the caps key..that's a 4. And on this battlefield it was Stu's turn to be ambushed. But did they bring him down? Naw...he's taken the lead for the UK. ...now all he has to do is sprint faster than the speed of light and fend off a mob of americans on his heels.

Fighting's closer hand-to-hand combat here on the titans...real gruelling gladitorial stuff. Stop to catch your breath and you get run over.

purelyqing UK and cat brat63 USA are in a clinch...oooeerr...

So are castortroy USA and jacky UK.

And sparklingwine UK is after Alien8 USA.

I'm armed with fire extinguishers at the ready for when it all gets too heated here.

The Mogul

Yesterdays most cunning animal mogul was miffy42#2 UK

Yes...that's the Challenge and the Mogul on the same day. A round of applause please.

Now...I've raided HQ for the secret stats. After 5 days maniacal mogul madness the USA have 810 points....the UK & Co have 600.

Oh come on UK we can't have this...they'll be going wild in the itty bitty chat boxes..drunk with success. Get laying them tripwires...squirt superglue on the course..send snazzy velcro playsuits as anonymous gifts for their mice to wear....do whatever means are necessary to catch them dust devils. But don't let out that pengy incited you to do it.

Some of you were real big bonus goodie grabbers last month...but these are the troops who hurdled the course like dynanoes and won even more points than in June...yeh...my most magnificent moguls.

I'd like to clap my flippers and ooh and ahh raptarously over the top 10 improvers who did their team proud. Thanks goodnes I'm adrift on an ice floe and can cheer for you all.

Aw...I'm in danger of getting sentimental now...so let's sally forth back to the gritty stuff.

The Survivor
Yesterdays steel sheathed omnipotent victor was miffy42#2 UK

Yes...a gleeful chuckle....miffy won 3 times yesterday.

Oops is that muddy pawprints I can see on some of the prisoners in the pit? I might have guessed. Cat brat63 USA has escaped, cunning cat...how many of your nine lives have you left now ? But is that your furry tail I can see still temptingly hanging in over the edge? And jacky UK escaped too I see. Own up....did you elbow twosleepy USA and salami swami USA in?

With only 2 days play left before the first knockout there'll be panicked scrabbling in the Danger Zone. Piranha has arrived and has started circling.

Time for a spedy retreat so I'll toddle off to the mogul and offer a protective shield to poor cyberhen. cat brat has chicken on the menu again...you know, she has a wicked streak does our cat brat.
