I believe it has something to do with the purging of duplicate results from the server database. Each purged result has its points removed as well.

Nope.

Its a Free-DC issue. Sometimes they up the stats update. usually rectifies itself in the next update.

I'm never right.

I believe we can take #1 spot... just need some help from someone with a good connection.... OH how about DAVE? Big FIOS man.

You know we used to be No 1 back about 3 years ago. We owned this project at the time.

That was my initial thought, but, I guess, I just assumed that they were done with that quite a while ago....

Ok, Cool. I know Free-DC gets pretty whacked sometimes...

Yeah it's not surprising but it shouldn't be hard to reclaim.


I'd rather we take #1 spot on WCG though.

Looks like Ukraine picked up the pace again.

[Gamekiller]

[Helheim]

[[XC] riptide]

Riptides uncle died from Cancer. Riptide attended a typical Irish funeral (2 days written off) and riptide has to go to tidy a few loose ends this weekend. I'm not gone.

[Gamekiller]

Sorry to hear that Neil.

[[XC] riptide]

Sorry to hear that Neil.

Its alright. Thats what happens when you smoke 60-80 a day. He drank an awful lot and gave up 14 years ago. Drink nearly killed him then. The sad thing is he was only 60, but no kids or wife.

[skycrane]

and skycrane?
