If you're not mentioned there's still days to go so load your weapon and get out there and show the enemy how tough you are...or it could be you haven't played the Challenge long enough for HQ to register your service history.

Oh...and other stats leaked out are about which team is in the lead at this critical point in the battles.

The USA are leading! The daring reds have so far bagged 52% of the points and Uk and friends only have 48%. This is mildly serious...not catastrophic.

This next bit is serious...

The Titans

Yesterdays top terrificus Titan was Paper aeroplane

Top 5 allegiances 1. Paper_aeroplane UK ...2. steve-e UK ...3. martin_cube UK...4. twosleepy USA ...5. onebraincelluk UK

4/1 for the UK & fiends. And 2 wins in a row for Paper aeroplane....can he do it though? Can he catch scubascott? My...29 points is a heck of a lot to catch up. But it's team work wins the battle and....brace yourself my american friends....you're in for a shock.

For the first time in Titan history the UK & Co army are in the lead. It's true! USA have 49.8% and UK and Friends have 50.2 %. It's not much I know...but I managed to slide a kipper between you...sorry if it tickled. This is the most dynamic blue team to ever storm across the field! They've snatched the lead! USA...stand straight...shrug them shoulders back. You only have days to lay mines, tripwires...send in the sharpshooters or you risk defeat.

The Mogul

Yesterdays most cunning animal mogul was miffy42 UK

He's after reclaiming a crown...he hasn't worn one for a while. Our jules has reigned supreme since August. This a strange battlefield..and a lethal one. In many ways the toughest fought. Are the americans managing to make a comeback here? Is the sky green? Are the UK team showing any mercy? Well...Uk & friends have bagged 53.5% of the bonus grenades...USA have 46.5%. I am gifted with tact so I will not say you are in dire trouble. I do wonder if Barry's new intray is full? Or should I send a memo. Yes, I watched it too and it looked abit nippy to be standing out there. Poor pianist probably had numb fingers.

The Survivor

Yesterdays steel sheathed Survivor was WorldB#2 USA

There is nothing fiercer and more determined that a deposed throne holder.

And wow..well done to briarwoodrose for managing to scrabble out of the Pit overnight. It's cutting it fine when the radar has already spotted piranha closing in and it's almost impossible to get out of the Danger Zone at this stage. I'm watching and waving a desolutory flipper at dippo who just slithered into the abyss...and at sparklingwine who with piton and grampon magnificently climbed up 3 places closer to escape! I'm on your side! Fear is contagious and I'm nervously dreading the cull. Only the finest and fittest of you will make it to the Final Frontier....Darwin just had to be comtemplating that Pit when he came up with his theory.

Right...have to go..things to do...grease the walls of the pit....

Surely the USA will be building up to launch a mass offensive....they have to do something dynamic or the UK will romp further ahead...and win

Diplomatic version; there are no losers here. Only runners-up.
