Top 5 allegiances... 1. mos623#1 USA ... 2. jules44#1 UK ... 3. poolosopher#10 USA ... 4. WorldB#2 USA ... 5. miffy42 UK

3/2 for the USA...and well done to pollygw for romping home in the top 10..and grabbing a PB too...polly you're my fave player! And pengy doesn't like to brag..but, well you're all demonically good. I know because I just peeked in the FT stats for yesterdays play and not only was the Challenge in the top 10.....you my friends, yes you...had the highest average score. Pengy is chuffed.
And mos623 you cunning tactician...with uncanny timing .you've done it again! Won just as a blog was due.
Any troopers in danger of enemy ambush?
You bet...briarwoodrose..take care! Strap on a jet pack...whilst you're storming down on ryaman...poolosopher is sneaking up behind! Everyone else shrug into your flak jackets. When Invincibles clash nowhere is safe! Hide! Quiz_Beagle UK and j2cp2 USA are embroiled in combat too...and oh dear j2cp2 have you peeped back over your shoulder? Don't..you haven't time! The UK & Co are plotting an ambush.
Pengy is stacking the stretchers ready. Nothing but the best for my poor fallen friends.
Careful martin cube...scubascott is right behind you. That close I can't slide a kipper bone between you.
twosleepy look alert..wake up!...pollygw is after you...and flicker123 and kjc are having a running battle as they scamper up behind. Hmmm..can see a multiple pile-up coming here. More messy litter to scoop up off the battlefield and resuscitate with aqua vitae
skipperdeedo is cutoff amongst the red devils...hurry hurry March Hare007 and bound to the rescue before datrivialist swots him. (or her)
Remember all brave troopes this is the crucial time of the month when , believe it or not, some souls have fled the field. Too tough? Could be..but it means there's abandoned undefended trenches to be grabbed and trenchs grabbed means more points grabbed for your country.
Yes..this month true grit will pay off like never before.

The Titans
Yesterdays top Titan terrificus was miffy42

Top 5 allegiances 1. miffy42 UK ... 2. StuHern UK ... 3. Deborah#4 USA ... 4. Qmel USA ... 5. cubswin2323 USA

3/2 for the red army! But can anyone dislodge miffy? Stu won yesterdays eve and handed the flag over to our spiffy miffy. And...who is this in the top 5? Well hello Deborah..nice to see you. Every now and then we get a rogue accidentally stray onto the course...or was it? Is the pressure and fear of been horribly hammered getting to the red team? Is it?
Quick adjustment and everyone after 2nd get's to move up one...isn't that nice.
So well done to skipperdeedoo... ...3/2 for the red army becomes reversed to 3/2 to the blue army. You thought I wouldn't figure that one out all on my own didn't you? You were nearly right.
Er..don't want to worry you Alien8 but this means skipperdeedoo is closing in fast...

The Moguls
Yesterdays magnificent music mogul was jules44#1 UK

I could say how absaloutley fabulous jules is...but I think I might have said this before..so I won't. This battlefield is really testing pengy's resolution not to peek at the stats everyday. No willpower. First thing this morning I peeked. This is unbelievable...4 out of the top 5 to limbo under the guillotine were americans..and hello again poolosopher..were'nt you on cracking form.
Now I'm liking the look of RICKYBIKER and Johnny zipping along..bagging bonus goodies for the USA..but is it enough? The UK & Co are putting up stiff resistance this time...better than that ....Which army has stockpiled most points in their armoury! It's a tie! Yes it's true! What nervewracking stuff...no one's giving an inch (or 2.54 centimetres but it doesn't have the same ring).
It's never too late for either army to draft in reinforcements...so everyone pile in!
Anyone goes AWOL now and you might just risk been put up against a wall this time! Stern talk? You bet!

The Survivor
Yesterdays top stell sheathed survivor was miffy42 UK

Well what a good show by my spiffy! And no one managed to get all 10 right yesterday..but this is the Final Frontier where it's tough and nasty and only the fittest survive.
First to fall ignobly into the Danger Zone..and first to courageously climb out of it was markswood. Ah..poor Qmel and dippo are languishing in there now.
But take heart I'm doing my bit to help you all and am busy keeping piranha at bay with my harpoon..and in the meantime anyone...just anyone could slither in the Pit. I can see four of you sliding dangerously close to the edge...a quick nudge and martin_cube... Deborah ... Stuhern or julieanne123 could find themselves in big trouble. You're safe until after play on Sunday..that's all.
I say WorldB have you noticed miffy is already right up there? You have? Oh, right. Me, I think this month miffy is bent on your stealing your throne.
