Yeah but people I didnt PM are entering too. Mikegoo for example!

Scoring update, this game is knife-edge! Any one entry, even if itself doesnt get first place will very much affect who wins this.

Short of baiting someone to actively try for last, the entry in last place would take some real beating. It was quite awful.

Haha. Now everyone is paranoid BraveHat

3 days to go. I'm glad Ctorj and Lucresia both want to enter, but I don't have their entries yet. I can't hold it open later, as the holiday period for Xmas starts to get real busy for me.

And while I was writing that, another entry came in. We are at 41 now!

45 is the all time record, and that combined two sites. Get your friends to enter. Email me on ashley(removethis)mtnbarnes@hotmail.com if you want.

Someone asked about my name, they saw it in my email addr... this was my reply

Quote:

...And I'm a guy. Until the 1970s the name was purely a male name and very rare in the States. From what I can tell an American TV Soap came out with a woman named Ashley, and from there on in, it became a female name. The male name was Ashley and the female variant was Ashleigh. Since then it has become a very popular female name, and they even use the male spelling for some bizarre reason. Outside of the states, especially in England, it remains a common male name. I have a name sake in England in fact that plays soccer. I know this courtesy of ego-google searching

But I was born before the gender switched. There appear to be a large number of gender switched names from the US to the UK. Glenn Close is probably an extreme example.

At the risk of more jokes:Uranus Hertz

But seriously 45 entrants is the equal record across MS and GL combined. That is the sheep record for GL, and 1 more will make it the all time top entered Sheep game of all time. 1st through to 5th are very very tight, and for a while the top 2 were even tied! Not any more though. Any one entry could change this - heck the next entry could catapault straight to first.
