Acrophobia #11 - Animal Life in Westeros Round Won by Dolorous Gabe


Fragile Bird

Recommended Posts

Aw. Hope all is well!

It's nothing unusual, just a decade or so of putting myself last. I have special needs kids so there are a lot of challenges. All will be well, I just need to pay more attention to me, and rest more. And of course keep doing things I enjoy, like writing and playing on the Westeros site with all you lovely people! :D

STANDINGS



1. Woofless 27 + 1+1+3+3+2+2+1+1+1 = 42


2. Leave it to your goat 16 + 1+1+3+3+2+1+1 = 28


3. Dolorous Gabe 17 + 1+1+3+2+1 = 25


4. lil' ghost 16 + 1+1+2+2 = 22


5. Emmit 13 + 1+1+3+1 = 19


6. Honeyed Chicken 2 + 1+1+3+3+3+1+4 = 18


7. Reek Havoc 3 + 1+1+3+3+2+2 = 15


7. Starks of Winter 8 + 1+2+2+1+1 = 15


9. Castellan 9 + 1+1+2 = 13

11. Bronn Stone 4 + 1+1+3+3 = 12


12. Whitefinch 5 + 1+1+2+1 = 10

15. Ser Not Appearing 2 + 1+1+3 = 7


16. Dany Lannister 3 + 1+1 = 5


17. Lord Lyman 2 + 1+1 = 4




Woofless pads her lead, but Honeyed Chicken gets the bonus for most 1st place votes and moves up nicely, and the next 4, Ghost, Gabe, Goat and Emmit hang on to those four spots after the lead, with a little juggling. But never fear, one excellent entry can really move you up and we're only in the third round coming up.



Once again, :cheers: for all the fantastic entries! For those who didn't get much in points, not to worry, you've done great stuff this round but the competition is fierce. You've done great stuff before and you'll do it again.



As always, please double check your score!

We have lost 2 entries this round, sad to say. And sorry this took so long, I accidentally closed the page, and when I went back in, it hadn't for some reason saved and I had to re-do it.



More strong entries!

ROUND 4




Leeches



Letters - NYAJHLOLP



Whether they are the prophesying kind Melisandre uses, or the blood drainers Roose Bolton prefers, or the flesh cleaners Qyburn utilizes, or the everyday work leeches that every maester in Westeros has in the medicine chest, leeches pop up on a regular basis in Game of Thrones.



So just in time for Halloween, a little something different to sink your teeth into. I'm sure you'll all get a grip on those 9 letters and come up with something juicy! :devil:



You'll have an extra long time to get your entries in, since weekends are usually busy for everyone.



DEADLINE: Monday, November 3rd, 10:00 pm Toronto time




Good luck!

Way to go, Woofless! The leader of the pack! :D



I was hoping for a "b" for blood or an "s" for suck at the least. Still I'm doing ok so far. I've got six possible entries and only half of them are terrible.



Now writing from the leech's POV? That is a challenge. With these letters, I'm not seeing that working, at least not without an explanation as to what the leeches are thinking...for context, you know.
