I just want to say that I think the kevvie is the most fun! It is friendly and people actually can chat with each other and java and JMK and Kevie himself all do such a great job! I never miss a Kevie unless I have been booted or something! LOL

Java is having a couple of problems at the moment so I've been left in charge !! All outstanding brainoffs will be sent by 2pm GMT and continue as planned. I'm not good with computer code so the results table won't be up to usual standard but will be readable !!

Looks like one of my Bleeding Heart Liberals never got his challenges on at least two occasions. Kinda hard to win that way.

Special mention for Shorty and Dogman, manfully carrying on after 2 team-mates deserted them. I shall expect a huge round of applause for them at end of tourney.

In all fairness, things do happen. I don't know what DID happen but as Jan said, their could be a good reason for them nor being around. I don't think they need any penalty imposed upon them. I think that players will be imposing their personal penalties without it having to be all official. If I had been in a tournament last week I would have been out of touch, too. I was without power for 5 days because of the Hurricane Irene.

I have to say I rarely wander into the PM area and there is nothing that alerts me that there is a message just for me - it always says 'today' in the last post area but that means someone somewhere has got a PM so give it a miss 7 times out of 10.
I do check once a week or less so it's not as though I never go check

Yeah, it's a bit of a problem that "Today" thing. We should probably look into that.
Either that or make the fact that you've got an unread private message more obvious.

Mariners yet again clear at top with Four pushing them hard. The very first Kevvie drug test may have to be called !! Quizzing Queencats in 3rd !!!! Last but not showing well clear of the Black Hornets who get my prize for best name. Dr Stump seem to have got over their discipline problems and climbing the table with the Spas Profs close behind just clear of a struggling Kevvie's Angels. Bleeding Heart Liberals hit the wall today but still in with a chance of top 5. Sept to remember recovering from an awful start to put pressure on Kevvie. Camalemi's scratch team struggling to find their early form as Woodog soldier on, no doubt cursing under their breath.

So glad to see the Quizzing Cats soaring. Our crew as always had fun and hopefully provided some thought about this September Kevvie and the month itself. Win or lose I hope we all walk away with memories and bonds with each other that are either strengthened or renewed. Let us be kind to the missing. We all have missed a quiz here and there over the years in the Kevvie and the twosome tournaments. These are the times others are counting on us more than ever and sometimes we fail each other. Let us move on, renew our commitment to be here for each other in the November Kevvie as best as we can be and know that loving each other and caring about each other is so much more important than the trivia we learn and relearn day by day here in the Factacular Community.

It is difficult to be kind to people who fail (despite being PM'd on more than one occasion) to provide an explanation for missing the tournament and letting down the team members who have made the effort. The actions of one missing team member are further compounded by the fact that they knew the competition was being played as they made a 'REAL' effort to play one game. If the individual had problems like computer gremlins, illnes or something else they had an opportunity to inform the competition organisers or their fellow team mates when they played their solitary game. To my knowledge this was not done,
I am all for friendship but in all my experience it has always been a two way street. On this occasion this process was clearly not explored.

Phew, gone thru 4 pencils and reams of paper but that is the final scoreboard chaps and chapesses !! The points differntial is not up to date but me abacus broke 2 days ago, if anyone wants an update on that for their team pm me and I'll sort it.
Special applause please for Woodoglieforme who played all but one match as a pair not a foursome, and that was a trio !! Very well done lads for hanging in there !!
Congrats yet again to those b****y Mariners, consistent to a fault, excellent work. I won't mention that they lost to Camalemi Crusaders and Quizzing Queencats. Always the bridesmaid, the best looking team, Fantastic Four. Kevvie was able to use the whip to good effect and the team made a strong run at the finish to pip Quizzers for the final medal. I think Quizzers sobered up and realised they were scared of heights, but top work from a team who always play with a smile on their face.
Last but not Least slugged it out with Black Hornets right to the Death !! I will have to sort out their differential cos that is really too close to call. Underperforming Dr Stump misfired this time out, check that ammunition guys !! Spas Profs and Bleeding Hearts never achieved the consistency needed despite some fine wins and Sept to Remember put in a really good effort in the second half of the show. Camalemi perhaps should have done better but some new guys in team who will know the ropes next time out.
Very well done all for a splendid display of sportsmanship and for putting up with me once Java was unavoidably derailed. With a bit of luck we will have kickstarted the Tournament Program by next time ????

Congratulations, Mariners!! When will your reign end??? Who knows?? For now you really are the top dogs of the Kevvie!! Great work :-)
Thank you to the fabulous Army for putting up with my shoddy performances at the beginning of the tournament. Oh, and a huge thanks to Doc for changing my avatar for me and thus changing my run of bottom-of-the-board scores. Briefly, anyway. We may have misfired a little this time but we are well stocked with ammo for our next meeting! Probably.....

I should add that Java was able to send most of the challenges herself and I sent a few, however, she wasn't on top form but will no doubt be back and snarling at you all by time of next Kevvie.
