h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I think that's a fascinating idea, VB. We would need two or more people to be present on Thursday morning to generate the word. Maybe we could trial it on a new thread?

I'm not around next Thursday - interviewing in rl.
B'el, we had a game called "Nit" which was a verbal game. It's exactly as I've said but if you finish the word you become a "N". If you do it again you become a "Ni". The first person to become a "Nit" loses.

That would be me then.

Good afternoon Folks, this month's results have been ed,

Please go and take a look...

See how you are doing by visiting the links below, and see who's next to fall to your next Telegram...

Well done to all of you.

As a few 'grammers have pointed out, voting has been tough the last couple of weeks.

Keep up the good work.

Still going folks, and new update next Sunday!



MMF

The telegram game has slowed down considerably over the last few weeks, and I wonder whether it's because of the words I set - maybe they're just not inspiring people?

Maybe it's time that somebody else sets the word from now on?

I'd be happy for somebody else to take over.

Bel

Personally, I'm more than happy with your words B'El

B'El, I am also perfectly with the way the words are chosen, and which ones you choose.

I think it is just the quiet season...

Or maybe my scoring

However if, with the other projects you are undertaking, you wish to pass the choosing of the weekly Telegram word to someone else, please say and I'll enquire as to whether anyone else would like to take it on board.

It would be a shame if you gave it up, but there would be no offence taken if you did.



for all your good words to date... Even the difficult ones!!!

MMF

Coming back to my question: is somebody else willing to set the words?
I feel like taking a break from the game, but will set the words if nobody else will.

I can if no-one else steps up...



And your dedication is, and has been, appreciated...

Thank You!





MMF

I'll echo that - many thanks for all those challenging words, Bel!

With MMF setting them, we'll have to practice using names of obscure parrots!

I'm sure you'll be fine, whoever sets the words. You could ask PBS, because MMF is doing enough with the score board already.

You mean like Anodorhynchus?

That's Macaws to you!

Or I could just run through my collective nouns!!!

Oh! And apologies... e-mail received and being ploughed through, Icy!



MMF

Thanks MMF - I hope it's of use! Drop me an e-mail or posting if you need anything else.

... And I'll be happy to set the words if you're snowed under, MMF.

Ok, I see the telegram game is taken care of then, so I'm out of here.

Instead of hitting the reply button, I've just been stupid enough to go with the unsub one instead *repeat after me "I am a p**t"*

B'El you have been an absolute dream with the words. I do appreciate that you feel like a break - as I am currently rather 'low' you will have noticed perhaps that I have not been as committed of late; so would not dream of volunteering, as I would doubtless let people down. MMF will surely be a good next master and I will be happy with whomesoever

Scorp

Let's see how it goes...

It depends on how it goes, along with updating the results etc.

I'll give it a go for a month, and then do a follow-up with you guys!

I've a difficult act to follow, as B'Elana's been doing it for so long!!!



MMF

I've been a bit in and out recently but I want to add my thanks and appreciation to everyone else's for Bel doing the word thing. Brava!
