Someone who doesn't realise there is a maximum of ten days to return work and thinks he can build up a several month cache to destroy the competition with?

Nah! they can't be that dumb... they just need time to hire a trainer and get their comps into shape for international competition, discuss strategy (lot of monikers on Facebook - not sure if they're all the same person or not), and sort of generally build themselves up to it... :D

Okay, I know. This is still months away - but it was dissappearing amongst all the completed challanges so I thought I'd best 'bump' it back up the table! :?

Well, 56 teams have enterred into this challenge, 45 of them have scored, 17 have broken 10k already and 11 are (so far) beating us.

That's how we stand at 1day 7hours in, 4.5 days to go....

2 days left to run and we are 14th of 49 active participants. Considering it's our weakest project this is respectable enough in itsself but Facebook in 13th is just 3.5K ahead.

Once this is done we'll have 3 weeks without any challenges :( . Should we set one up? How about it Boss? I notice that SIMAP has work.

...On the other hand I'm not sure I'd have been too keen on 13th... not that I'm superstitious or anything. :D
