As with Rockstar, I always have a "whack" with picture prepped in advance to instantly post. Even then, I'm slower on the mouse-click than Catfish, Rockstar and El Whacko(Red Texas)...who was mercifully absent in this soiree! One response, won by Catfish, got four clicks in the the same minute as reflected by Rockstar's "wth" post! The competition was the toughest yet in this ol' rugger's opinion...I was hanging by my cuticles at the end with Rockstar being
just 300 points behind and inexorably closing on my lead; blocked by Catfish's two back-2-back squirrel-courtier 500 pointers that saved my diminishing lead! Again, well done all!

Sorry Aktungbby had to go pickup my 7 year old grandson from school and watch him till his Mom got off work. I'm busier now than I was before I retired.

.../\ familial priorities take precedence over whacking my septuagenerian comrade

! Marrying off my daughter at her gala event and winning against unrelenting squirrel whackers all in one week...boggles my TIA afflicted mind!?? The more so as Eich and ET2SN had alluded to holding the game during the wedding..."so somebody else would have a chance"??

Even if you were wearing a Tux, I knew you were still going to play.

I gotta come clean and admit Eichörnchen asked me not to participate until later, he knew my skills were well above everyone else, I am just that amazing. But I jumped the gun and the timing was off and once again like always I was on the verge of winning.

The problems people were having with their computers and the timing in seeing posts was done to trick you into thinking my loss was legitimate and not done on purpose. Once he realized I would win he transmitted the code “Let the Wookiee win.” I had to follow orders, I had no choice but to place second.

Maybe next time.

< Maybe he's got plans to evict the corgis?

One correction only - with apologies to Reece

Another very high scoring game - Markus didn't manage to land a single whack yet still ended up with 2300 points... it's a game of mystery that's for sure

Quite a bit of yesterday night I just can't remember - my mother in law was still speaking to me this morning so I guess I couldn't have been too bad

Psst is there a cheat mode ?
If so where can I find it ?

One correction only - with apologies to Reece I wondered about that? I had him at 2500 on my own 'situational awareness' tally

Lucky you! My late mother-in-law would seldom speak to any of her (5)kids' spouses...she passed at age ninety 8 months ago...
