I figure one out and I'm too damn late.

But half the fun is in playing moonie... right?

Ahh... this is going swimmingly isn't it?

Definitely!!

 

[Guest]

In light of the dearth of interest shown I am inclined to call this it and save the ones I have stored for another site Lexie and I have joined, that may give a better response.

I will have a word with her when she's sorted out and see what she wants to do, but frankly, there are so few regulars here, and no 'atmosphere' and there hasn't been for a while, so I just don't want to put the effort in for... nothing really. *shrugs*

 

[Guest]

Well... that's that then. Spoken to lexie, and she agrees. I think the lack of response speaks volumes anyway.

Ta-ra.

 

[lexielou2]

Thank you to everyone who played at the start of the thread...I know interest seems to have dwindled lately...and some of that is probably down to me not posting as much...so a very big thank you to my bear who kept this thread going virtually on his own for so long

 

[fire_breeze]

I want to thank you, DB and Lexie. You've both put in so much time, effort and creativity in this thread, I have no idea how you did it. It was a privilege playing, and I highly enjoyed it (even though I may have cursed several time). Thank you for the challenge and for the laughs.

 

[Lady_Liz]

'twas my all-time favorite thread here.
thank you

Hello Everyone

Lexie is feeling a bit better and we both have a few cryptics stored.

Are people here still interested? If so we could carry on for a while.... see how it goes. If not, we do not mind... there is another place we can post them.

So... this is not us begging, or moaning at people. Just asking.... do people want it to continue or not? If yes... then fine... if no... no skin off our nose, we'll post them elsewhere.... we may post them at both places anyway.

Please let us know. If there is little or no response, we will know.

I rarely post here, because they go so quickly, I'm never here when they show up as available. But I always enjoyed looking at them even if I was too late. I really did ... there were some that were VERY clever, and it became my favorite thread of yours.

Thanks 'tiery'..... It was mine too.... truth be told... this and connections. Quiz wise.

Though what are my faves to do, and what are most popular never seem to match.

I loved the YouTube and Scavenger ones, and they died deaths... Others I was never very keen on TBH, took off like crazy. I suppose it's exciting... you never know what's gonna catch on and can't knock every ball out of the park.

 

[lovemonster]

I know I'm not around as much, but I've always enjoyed this game. If you do start it back up, I shall definitely play it when I'm around

Do you have to ask me? Come on sunshine-you know I love this thread-it was where the "sharkette" was truly born and you were the one who coined the phrase for me which I saw as a great compliment.

Whatever both of you decide I will respect.

But give me cryptics!! NOW!!!

Love you both

 

[lexielou2]

DITTO!!

Thank you both...we'll have to send out a half hour warning for you two so you can get your butts here ready to answer sometimes

Hehe...should have guessed the original sharkette would be one of the first to reply

Jeez...one mention of possible cryptics again and she gets all bossy and demanding

A few rules
1. You can guess as many times as you want for each pic. There are absolutely no time limits. BUT..... you must only guess ONCE per post.

2. NO EDITING of posts. Edited posts will be disqualified.

3. In the event of a tie time-wise, any mis-spellings or omissions will lose out, otherwise ALL ties get a point. This will ONLY come into play if it's a tie on time, unless lexie or I think an unfair advantage is gained. Our decision is final, so yah-boo-sucks!!

4. There is no rule 4.

5. The first to 25 wins that particular sprint. the top 3 will be entered into a hall of fame in the first post of the thread. Once that happens, all scores are reset to zero. this is to enable new people to join at any time should they so wish to.
