Nosebleed city.

Hey, gspm, I got no.2 for Form this week, not no.3 as shown in your form table. Nevertheless, your diligent scorekeeping and table-building are very much appreciated. Looking to break into the top 5 when play resumes two weeks from now.

Just wait till next week. Return of Ladyboy!

wc2k2 - I guess a tie for first bumps you down to 3rd? Excel makes that call.

Ohhhh. I hate Microsoft.

Same thing in the Olympics though. Dual gold medallists = no silver medal.

Ohhh. I hate the Olympics. Actually, wait, I think two golds usually means there's no bronze. Is that correct? Bueller?

Actually, wait, I think two golds usually means there's no bronze. Is that correct? Bueller? This article (see the results table) suggests two golds means that the next finisher gets bronze.

Thanks, holden. I still hate the Olympics.

Ohhhh. I hate Microsoft. Of course you do. Isn't this listed in your employee handbook on page 1?

wow, I broke the top 20 for the week for the 1st time ever!

Shush, bill. Shhhhhh.

Re the tie for first, I guess you can look at it this way. You get the bronze medal because two people beat you. Therefore, third best.

Ah, I see that. But it don't make it feel no better. Next gameweek, I'm storming the barricades and moving into the top 3!

I have been tardy in making this posting but I might be away from the net from the 15th to 21st. So if somebody could grab the necessary data* for the next update and send it to me then I'd be able to maintain the updates albeit with a long delay on the Week 6 posting. * I dunno how best to send it, but I grab a CTRL+C, CTRL+V copy of the table and then copy the HTML used to create the table (which gives me stuff like the overall placing and the number of transfers). a text file or email with all that should suffice. unless somebody wants to bodge together a stopgap week 6 update.

What about a google spreadsheet? I can stash it there for you.

What a complete, utterly disastrous weekend.

Ditto, WC, ditto.

Speak for yourselves, I could kick myself for not choosing the captain wisely though.

We need, nay demand a Gameweek 6 update.
