laguy's Winter Game - And the winner is...

[laguy03]

Pretty much done at this point, yes. Just waiting on actuals. I got a whole lot of work to do this afternoon!

[Chewy]

Haha don't work yourself too hard on our behalf 

[Plain Old Tele]

I got a perfect score on the weekly questions! Too bad I couldn't nail more of the bonus placements.

[baumer]

Sucks doing scores on the last day, doesn't it Laguy?  

[Chewy]

Oh ffs, WOWS fell exactly 20%

 

I blame Tele

[laguy03]

Sucks doing scores on the last day, doesn't it Laguy?  

 

LMAO. Yes, it does. I need to score Week 16 questions, Makeups, 4 SOTMs, Top 5 OW, AND Top 15. I will update this post as I go but I don't think I will be done with everything until tomorrow.

[laguy03]

Oh ffs, WOWS fell exactly 20%

 

I blame Tele

 

Actually, it fell more than 20%. It fell 20.02% (just under $2,000 away from falling less than 20%).

[Plain Old Tele]

Oh ffs, WOWS fell exactly 20%  I blame Tele

It fell just a squidge past 20, thank god.

[Chewy]

Still bad for me
