Crowning Champs Day

Here I am again...yes, me.
I have the thrones of distinction plugged in, ready and waiting for 5 distinctive derrieres. Six actually and you'll find out why when pengy deigns to tell you.
Never let is be said that pengy lacks panache and style...
I thought it was time to award our super champs a trophy too. All lovingly polished and ready to hand over. Six trophies for six exceptional players. Did I say 6 again?
Our revered Challenge Champ Jules44 come on up and retake your throne. Yes, you surely own it by now! Are you badly mauled by an affectionate penguin too after all the compulsory hugs each month?
Will our fabioso Mogul Maximus Jules44 just wriggle over..that's it..and pop onto throne numero 2. And another hug! Yes! But you know you almost didn't keep it...miffy was there and then you tipped him off.
Our terrific Titanasaurus Rex was a hard fought win. First one player laid claim..then got ousted...until finally...Three cheers for Quiz Beagle. Last month she snatched the Sole Survivor throne from American hands. And the spritely pooch did it again and stole the Titan throne right from under their noses. What a talented doggy. Surely the UK team should shower her with doggy chews and tasty bones in reward.
Will WorldB , our new Sole Survivor, come on up and reclaim your rightful place. The 4 time winner of the hardest battle there is...Funny the USA team have never managed to win this one....but do produce most of the champs.
And here we are...the nice polished trophies....for 4 of the best.

Jules44 Jules44 Quiz Beagle WorldB

And full of fight and often the fastest sprinters to reach the flagpoles we have the Daily Dervishes...that's the niftiest with most daily wins tucked in their grenade belt.
Look what I've got.... a little gift. I hope you've all got a shelf handy to display your new trophies on? Some of you will need reinforced shelves.
The Challenge miffy42 snatched 11 wins.
The Mogul miffy42 grabbed 11 wins.
The Titans Tie break! Pengy Law enforced...poolospher and Anton both snatched 5 wins each..and wow, loads of clever players earned a win and scurried up the flagpole..well done to everyone as it really did make for nailbiting refereeing.. But...pengy law says whoever managed to beat most players is the absolute kingpin and poolosopher thrashed 133 opponents with his total 5 wins, whereas Anton trounced 125. ..not all at once you understand. So poolosopher come and take a sip of shandy out of your trophy.
The Sole Survivor miffy42 stole 6 wins. Hey I say that's miffy domination if ever I saw it. This calls for a celebratory drink. Non alcoholic of course.
Oh miffy...you'll be pummelled flat with all these hugs.

Next we honour our heroic Invincibles...those who dwell apart from mortals on the Olympian heights. Health and safety rules you know...they're just too fearsome to allow to run free. They frighten me.

How strange...not one eviction! They were jostling for position though on the ledges. You know something UK..I think they're building up to a dreadful big offensive. mos623 is the ringleader...Velcro his legs together..that's what I'd do if I could catch him.

Poor Little Heaven and OldSpotPig were evicted...but every cloud has a silver lining..scamper over to the Titans, there's going to be mayhem over there this month without Quiz Beagle able to defend her crown and a pack of hungry Americans on the warpath.
Speaking reverently of the super pooch, Quiz Beagle took the gondola upto the heights. Don't like to rub salt into the wound my American friends but there was some riotous celebrations going on there last night. And a big hug for
steve-e..I knew you'd do it. This perspicacious pengy can spot a future fab Invincible the minute they walk onto the battlefield as a new recruit.
I currently have my beady eye on Anton...and er, oh dear..I notice datrivilaist is back to join the fight. This could be seriously bad news for the UK & Co.
And own up..who kidnapped miffy yesterday? Where is he? Now is not the time to go missing...not with hunting packs on the roam wearing stars and stripes flak jackets.
Just look at the first days results if you don't believe me. Could pengy just say...my, you Americans were quick off the starting blocks. Is this a taste of things to come?
Oh..and for our Invincibles....a little buff with the fluffy duster..
One each for all of you..yes, with your names engraved on..and no, I'm not lining up 20 of them. I say they do look nice though and anyone who can become such a dreaded competitor deserves a little token of my esteem.

Next..it's the MOPS..or the Most Outstanding Players.

A Tie! Two Thrones!

To share would be mean and niggardly.
For the first time ever we have a tie... a split decision..and what a diplomatic coo too..sorry, that coo was me sounding awed and impressed, I mean of course, a coup.

Not got a mention? Don't be disheartened. Last month was tough and saw lots of you slither down the ranks. More damaging a few new recruits charged in ...so lets see what havoc they create now...if they dare hang around.
Time for me to go and instil some order....might nip over to the Mogul smorgasbord first...it's Irish Stew. For the American team? Odd.
