MG17's Comments:
Wasn’t expecting France actually lol. This is very cool. The grammar could be better, but I won’t be too boring about it. It’s interesting to see a almost 60-year old truck driver, that usually gets busy on work, having a good flux of high-quality blogs!

Looks like a nice game! The formatting overall is good. I love what you made with the table. Although there were a lot of good blogs on RUB this week, and distribute 10 to everyone is impossible.

I’m not into music, but that’s was a great blog! I literally cannot remember if I ever heard of “The Day the Music Died”, neither about American Pie. But the formatting and the hyperlinks are superb! Really good!

Great blog! The formatting of Thread’s blog is an example for follow. These blogs you and AFC (Aficionado) are making about flags are really good! Just take care for it doesn’t look so repetitive, at the point to lose creativity points.
Honorable Mentions
Before we get into the number one blog this week, I would like to introduce the 3 honorable mentions for this week!

AFC striking again. Still don’t thinking Uberlândia flag is weird, but I love we have Brazil representation! The formatting is also wonderful! But the same thing I mentioned to Thread, is valid here. The points of creativity may be reduced with Ethaboo, Chen, and the next guest judges. But in this meanwhile, nothing to worry!

Better send Thread to Northern Cyprus, he doesn’t like that place.
(also the T in toowise should never be capitalised ! I wrote it without capitals on purpose, but I don't make a fuss about it.)
Better send MiecraftMan to Flappy Bird, he doesn’t like that place
Better send TheNatureThread to the wire house, he doesn’t like that place.
Better send MiecraftMan to a Beluga video, he doesn’t like that place.
Anyway, better send MG17 to Argentina, he doesn't like that place.
Better send Aficionado to Mars, he doesn’t like that place.

I take on board MG's comments about grammar, but he sounds too surprised when he says I'm a 60 year old truck driver. Am I too old, do you think that truck drivers shouldn't be able to write blogs ?
About the age, is just a factor that shows more how talented your work (on blog) is. The most of users, having their 10-20 years old, are worried with bad quality blogs, while you state that age is not a document.
These are just factors that prove how talented you are! I hope that didn’t look like prejudiced :)
In answer to your other thoughts. I only work locally nowadays, maybe maximum 4 or 5 hours driving per day and I am at home most days around 5 or 6pm, so I have time in the evenings and at weekends to compile the blogs and do some research. And I just write as I think about the words, sometimes I change the odd phrase or sentence, sometimes a whole paragraph, even a complete blog has been deleted because I didn't like it for some reason.
I just write now when I'm relaxed, if it takes 2 weeks or 3, it doesn't matter. I learnt that lesson when I did the On This Day quizzes. That year was crazy!
MG asked me to say this here.
Lol
It's time you face dire consequences as I had warned in the previous post (and yeah, it was me not MG). The Quadruple Alliance shall decide your punishment shortly. Be prepared!
aficionado told me to reply to this commentYes!
afc also told me thisUh... maybe yes? (If we can procrastinate your projects, why them not lol)
aficionado may have also told me to reply to thisYes! I don't think the consequences will be that severe but nonetheless, we need the BG to survive!
that might have been a liethis is disgusting i can't look at it while writing this comment.
If you don't answer to this as well, I am going to assume yes.
bullyget Ethaboo to post blog games)But I think I may be getting itTime to bring out the infantry
