Writing to Tharg 2012 - LETTERSENTERTAINYOU THE ROAD TO 10,000

[Proudhuff]

What no column for drawings in the nerve centre? 

You should be grateful that I allow £10 drawings as Letters of the Week (they match the Letter of the Week Prize) for if I didn't you'd have none. And deservedly so!

ah the green eyed monster...

Usual rules of letters combat apply. Letters of the Week top standard Letters. Page position irrelevant as is length of letter. In the event of a tie most total letters win. Anyone else want to get involved?

[TordelBack]

Extra point for sneaking in some kind of abusive acrostic?

[Buttonman]

A jibe at your fellow contestants would be good - Hollow ending...hmmm...needs work...

[Bat King]

I am quite proud of my 'push the button, man' comment

[Buttonman]

I was pushed but I push back x 2!

[Link Prime]

Anyone else want to get involved?

Wi' yo momma!

The Die is Cast.

Big news on the LETTERSENTERTAINYOU all time letters and drawings published leader board, with Richard 'Link Prime' Kavanagh jumping from 6th= to 4th outright by virtue of his Letter of the Week. Richard is a long term supporter of the Beast and its ailing operator, so well done Richard! He only needs 15 more to unseat Grant Goggans for a top 3 berth and 58 for the outright lead. A long way to go but he is the pony with form!

[Colin YNWA]

Never has the trivial news of letter quantities brought so much joy. And not only cos Mr Link is one of my favourite posters here.

[Link Prime]

Extra point for sneaking in some kind of abusive acrostic?

If I had have known he was going to attempt to drop dead the day after I sent this letter, I probably would've left out the "finger on the button" line... 

[Buttonman]

This week's Prog (1930 : Trojan Hearse) has five letters and they are all from first timers! Some may say this is a good thing as it shows the new blood coming to the Prog and indeed Beast but c'mon! Surely tired old rhetoric and nit picking has its place too?!

Can't really moan - haven't written in a month...
