1. To participate in the game, you must post to the prescribed thread.
2. A post must consist of at least one word.
3. A participant may not have two or more consecutive posts in the thread.
4. The winner of an episode is responsible for organizing the next episode and for choosing the winner of that episode.
5. The winner may be chosen on the basis of the date/time of the post, the number of the post in the thread (50th post; 31415th post; ...), the presence/absence of a particular word/phrase in the post, or any other reason selected by the organizer of the episode. However, the organizer of an episode is prohibited from winning that particular episode.

And having said all of this and with a flare of trumpets we are off (????)

Congrats. Hope the winning
Hope the winning event isn't being inside the eye of a cyclone, but we will see what Kavanagh comes up with.

Well Robl did post a reply to Kavanagh saying he was passing the baton on, so how is it you are choosing? Or were there some PM's no one else has seen?

Mikey,
Can I suggest that you have another look at what robl wrote. He was responding directly to Kavanagh's message. Robl was joining in with Kavanagh's congratutations and was 'passing the baton' to him.
Sure, he didn't mention any name in the response, but the wording was quite clear. The use of 'you' and 'your' refer to the person to whom he was responding.
I was hoping that robl might have clarified the matter, but even without that, I suggest you have another look at robl's message and work out for yourself what should happen.
Cheers,
Gary.
Rather than wait for Robbo
Rather than wait for Robbo and since we are here anyway, I say let Hurricane Mikey have the win.

I am bowing out of running the game and you are now in charge, have fun! I obviously misread the post from robl.
The only other 'right thing to do' is to declare you the winner right now and make you start a new game but since this one is only a couple of days and posts old it's yours.

Who's Douglas Adams? Maybe he liked nice round numbers, 2 times 2 is 4 and 2 times 1 is 2.
