Crowning Champs Day
The UK & Co army won the war in July but who were our heroes and top players?
The magnificent thrones are ready for the new champs ... they're dusted, plugged in and gently vibrating. To ease all those tired aching muscles.
July found us a new, dynamic heroic champ! An American secret weapon... and a newcomer .. so fear him ... or her .... for he ... she .. is going to be great!
Challenge Champ ... will the one and only jules44 take a bow and come on up and claim her throne. Will jules ever relinquish ownership of it? I think not. mos623 was our top american player .... and our Daily Dervish with most daily wins was jules44 with 15 victories. She's currently on leave .. and the new war has started and an Amercian has dared to take an early lead! Hope I'm not evoking the infamous Pengy Kiss of Death by saying that.
Mogul Maximus ... ah ... it's my spiffy miffy. Miffy42 will you please come on up and park your little bum in your place of honour. You can have a well earned, well deserved hug from me, if you'll pardon the fishy breath. So who was our top USA trooper at wriggling under the 60 second guillotine?
Rage.
Now there's a name that evokes fear! Watch out UK I suspect this new enlistee is going to create trouble amongst the trenches. This is not a Pengy premonition, unfailingly accurate and dropdead impressive though they can be ... this is hard fact from HQ stats. And he has cohorts .. other newcomers who could threaten the status quo.
Am I being an alarmist?
I hunch my tuxedo clad shoulders and duck down out of the flak.
Titanasaurus Rex ... Remember, in days to come you might think back and say to yourself ... yes, I can remember when this fearsome American first appeared. Pengy did warn us all.
But we don't frighten easy here and we do not grovel ... well, not right away anyway.
Three cheers! Hip hip! ... and all that ... will the magnificent, deadly Rage accept this invitation from your first most fawning fan (that's moi) ... and come on up and claim your throne. I'll throw the gauntlet down now on the UK's behalf ... no way will they allow you to run amok. They'll send out assassins.
Our top UK player for July? It was Doc. Hmm ... sounds ominous. I imagine splints and bandages were in big demand for the UK casualties littering the Titan battlefield.
Still .. there is good news UK. Rage became an Invincible and can not create havoc this month. That must be a relief. I detect some psychological warfare though ... hammerdjh , a cheeky rogue Invincible is scampering in the trenches. Don't worry UK .. I have my harpoon ready. Pengy misses nothing. Worry about this instead!
Marsalinator is back! Yes ... he's a natural leader and will inspire the American daredevils to wondrous, mammoth feats. And then there is Clamking too.
Need I say more?
Yes! ... Stuhern is back too for the UK!
No pressure UK ... brave UK, but I hope you're fully tooled up. What with Marsalinator, Clamking, poolosopher in the fray this month along with such a strong USA army a horrible feeling has just hit the pit of my stomach.
Shall I fold the Union Jack up nice and neat now and stash it away for the month?
Sole Survivor .... Psst ... you ... yes, you. The wonderful new champ sitting basking on the Titan throne ... can you just wriggle your little rump to come and sit on this one aswell? I'm clapping my flippers in honour of Rage ... our new Sole Survivor. Might I also say in my most ingratiating voice ... I'm stunned just how quick you've hammered the opposition, you wonderful human . Piranha however is not to be denied. Resistance is futile. No one escapes Piranha and lives to tell the tale for long.
And which UK & Co trooper survived the longest? Well done martin cube! Top UK player!

A bit aggressive?
Disclaimer: Though a garrulous pacificist I'm beholden to exercise the referees perrogative .... cause trouble... make war.

Next .. my favourite bit. The bit that makes me shudder and reach with trepidation for my Chinese stress balls.
Our Most Outstanding Player in July.
Brace yourself UK ... this red tide might instil a panic attack.
Top Mop .... wow .. and our Top Mop scampered so far and so fast I jetted his heels with a fire extinguisher!
Will Schoonie101 fight through the fogbank and come and claim his/her throne (apologies there Schoonie ... human gender is a mystery to a penguin).
Schoonie101 USA up 41 ... Absolute Top Mop (another new recruit to watch with a beady eye)
My other top fave players ... with grazed knees and aching brains and so worthy of my undying admiration.

But that was July's war .. and another one has begun and if my Pengy sensors are operating with their usual darn canny precision I'm anticipating a close fought war. Unless some players can be frightened into deserting the battlefield and going AWOL there will be some serious quizzing ahead!
Oh ... and that reminds me ... I have finally discovered facebook .. yes I know, quick aren't I? If you scroll your mouse down and look to the right you will see my mugshot. Any updates here will miraculously also appear on facebook in future.
Neat hey?
Tssk ... and someones nicked all the flags off the blog again.
That's my afternoon sorted ... whilst you my human friends must shrug into your battle harness and go and fight the war.
Your country needs you! But do stop off for snacks at Qmel's smorgasbord on the Mogul.

Results from HQ for July 2010
The UK & Co won Mays war.
The UK & Co won Junes war.
Are my American buddies going to let this continue I ask myself?
And I must say ... this Pengy found the July war to be exciting fighting fun. Have my American buddies managed to stem the tide from across the Atlantic? Marsalinator came back ... and there were some very tough new recruits. I will whisper their names .... Why? Because I frighten easy and I'm just relieved I didn't have to take them on. Their names? Oh yes, Rage .. Schoonie101 and hammerdjh.
I've nibbled my flippers down to the elbows with nerves and it's time to raid the stats from HQ.
Who won in July? The Great USA? Or the Old Empire, The UK & Co.
The Challenge
The USA fielded 29 troopers, nabbed 7712 points = 49.8%
The UK & Co fielded 27 troopers, grabbed 7248 points = 50.2%
The UK & Co won the July Challenge by a measly 0.4% .. that's less than a whole one percent! That's less than a kipper bone between the two armies!
But alas, my American buddies ... it was still a UK & Co win.
The Titans
Ah .. my telescope detected some new bald eagles hurdling through the battle trenches this month. Did these ferocious newcomers find their prey?
In a word.
Yes.
The USA army fielded 11 deadly, dangerous troopers, snatched 2135 points = 52.6%
The UK & Co , valiant defenders, fielded 12 troopers, won 2096 points = 47.4%
Where are my flags! Hah! Here we are!
The USA won Julys titanic Titan battle by 5.2% ... last month the now beaten into the dust UK had won by 8.8%
And what a terrific fight it was to watch aswell and not a little frightening for your Pengy referee come stretcher bearer. Well .. someone has to pick up the trampled players, dispense aqua vitae whilst breathing hard into a brown paper bag on the sidelines.
A great win my American buddies. ... but now for the bad news! The deadly Rage .. Schoonie101 and hammerdjh attained Invincible status on the Challenge and so are now NOT eligible to play the Titan in August. Tssk ... this is bad news indeed for the bald eagles. Paper aeroplane for the UK is also barred.
However .. this means that any evictees from Mount Olympus can now jump into the fray ... claim glory ... try to claim a crown.
Clamking .. Qmel and cubswin2323 for the USA , go! go! go! .... and
Steve-e for the UK & Co have official permission to go and create havoc!
The Mogul
The 60 second guillotine dropped neatly and quickly. I do keep it well oiled you know.
The USA army slithered and scrambled under the chopper whilst grabbing 3040 bonus points = 41.8%
The UK & Co limboed under it in droves ... grabbing 4230 scalps ... did I say scalps? Points. I meant points, which = 58.2%
Taking american scalps and nailing them to their totem poles as they stormed to victory the UK & Co won the July Mogul by 16.4%.
Last month they won by 17.6%
In May it was 28%
I see an encouraging trend here for my American eagles but my astute, machiavellian, Pengy insight also tells me the Mogul might once again have swung the war.
But has it?
The Survivor
The USA army eluded the dangerous Pit and Piranha's chomping jaws long enough to stash 3130 points to add to their arsenal. = 42.2%
The UK & Co army scrambled to safety long enough to grab 4285 fabulous points, = 57.8%.
Victory for the UK & Co army in the July survivor battle by 15.6%
Last month it was 8.6%
Hmm .. I ponder the war stats gripped nervously in my flipper and a thought occurs to me. Just the one.. for I'll have you know I'm only a simple Pengy with a limited attention span.
The USA armies strength is in team battles ... but ... more of them need to slither nimbly under that Mogul guillotine and more need to bravely face the dangers of Piranha's Pit. Does this mean the UK & Co troopers are braver and more courageous? Have no fear of Piranha's jaws? Are more devilishly clever? I will never know for sure .. for my attention has wandered off elsewhere. .. as it does ...
Ah .. yes, the overall winner of Julys war based on all four battles ..
The USA snatched 46.6% of all points won
The UK & Co snatched 53.4% of all the points won.
A UK & Co victory (again) by 6.8%
Last month they stormed home by 9%... which was more.
And ... July was the first month of the Fourth Tour of Duty!
So it's First Blood to the woadwearers!
The UK & Co won Junes war.
