There might have being fraternising in the trenches ... and Dancing With Beagles by the Smorgasbord (sounds like a good name for a film to me) and none of this frivolity is a court martial offence ... but .. the pacifist Pengy with the sharp radar-like eyes, aided by binoculars , has spotted strange, intriguing new activity on the battlefields.
Yes .. I speak of newly enlisted troops storming in and flying the Stars & Stripes. A host of courageous warriors ... and I am sorely tempted to scream 'Here comes the US cavalry!'
Instead I shall scream UK get your snipers at the ready! And be afraid ... be very afraid. Of course, for myself I am sitting with baited fishy breath and knee wobbling excitement because this is war .... and I love a good scrap!
So .. first, a quick and friendly welcome to our new players ... DomiNeyTor USA, tomwheat USA, tikal700 USA, LostHighway USA, TriviaFan22 USA, TimBentley USA, johnsnow USA, BxBarracuda USA (frightening name!) ... DireWolf74 USA, jackd USA and chip63 UK.
And a welcome back to navaho56 and cubswin2323. Hi guys!
Ah .. I can almost all the safety catches coming off the UK guns.
Is it diplomatic to remind everyone at this point that the USA army have not won a Monthly war since May 2011? Perhaps not .. but this keyboard warrior feels quite safe in their bunker.
On to the stats for the latest war. Who won? Will it be the all conquering UK & Co?
The Challenge
The USA fielded 34 terrifying troops (in November it was 25) .. and they valiantly won 7375 points = 44%
The UK & Co fielded 19 heroic champs .. and they won 9466 spoils of war = 56%.
The UK & Co Army won the December Challenge battle by 8%.
Take heart my American buddies ... dudes and dudettes ... you fought valiantly and lost by less! Yes! Take comfort in that for not only did you close the gap on November it is once again the American General RJ sitting on the Challenge Champ throne.
Yet the Survivor battle has always been where the USA army has met it's nemesis. Scalped and trodden into the muddy trenches by the best army in the world, the UK & Co.
Well .. It was mayhem!
December saw the closest result for years!
USA = 20 fabulous and clever troops who won 4385 pts = 49.2%
UK & Co = 17 fab troops who nabbed 4525 pts = 50.8%
The UK & Co won the December Survivor battle by a measly 1.6%.
Compare that to November when the woadwearers won by 30% (yes, 30% that was not a typo).
So what does this mean? I fear ... and cheer that ...
The Americans are coming! That's what it means.
Whilst .. the fact is ...
The UK & Co won the December Battle.
USA = 46.6%
UK & Co = 53.4%
UK won by 6.8% overall. .... in November it was a massive 24%!
UK & Co are your days numbered? Did you feel a shiver run down your spine then? A premonition of impending slaughter and doom? I did.
I suspect exciting times lie ahead. I can feel a Pengy prediction coming on....
I predict the tide is turning .. I predict that the wonderful USA are storming back and are aiming to reclaim world dominion! I shall shake the moths out of the Stars & Stripes in readiness.
I for one need some comfort food so shall now jog off to the smorgasbord.
Everyone else .... back into the fray. Your country needs you now more than ever before.
