Grim Up North 3,751 Posted April 8, 2022 Quite curious as to how this leaderboard will look when it appears. I have 8 out of my top 10 dead but then nothing much else for a total of 2620 points excluding the bonuses. Not enough to win it but if Larry Pressler (number 2 on my list) were to peg it I'd be in the mix I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BuffaloPhil 934 Posted April 13, 2022 14 hours ago, CaptainChorizo said: 6th BuffaloPhil-2251 I make it 2281 (500 + 400 + 300 + 275 + 225 + 180 + 160 + 120 + 100 + 21) assuming a sub goes to position 21 and everyone moves up one? (If the sub simply replaces the pre-start death in the same position, then I think I'd be on 2400.) Don't think I'm close enough that it'll make a difference, but worth checking!

Perhaps 1,425 Posted April 22, 2022 Mwai Kibaki is a tiny 40 point hit for me here. Changes nothing scoreboard wise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wormfarmer 428 Posted April 25, 2022 After a strong start, I faded to the middle of the pack. But I would still like to finish Top 10. So please add 140 pts to my total for Mr. Guy Lafleur, hockey HOF'er. AND for an error check, although my hits are correctly noted, my math shows I am short 60 pts in the current standings table (2011 vs. 2071), for a new total of 2211. That's without the lovely Mila Ximenez who missed getting a QO, which surprises me a bit. And it still might not get me into the Top 10. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainChorizo 1,990 Posted April 25, 2022 Updated with Kane Tanaka,Mwai Kibaki ,Guy Lafluer and a James Harman hit from earlier in the game I had missed.
