Plus, who doesn't enjoy some good like-whoring?

It should also me noted that Mr. Pink's preseason total of 2,721,000 is the 3rd highest in the game. An active weekly game could have seen him be a challenger, as opposed to a B- player

Ouch that is a painful top 10 and 15. This summer screwed over a lot of people with crazy over and underperformers. I feel like next summer will feel like child's play in comparison. BCF was one of the biggest victims of said cruel summer.

Blankments won the first Winter Game I ever competed in. HIs preseasons sent him rocketing from about 19th to 1st if I remember rightly. His top 15 here was reminiscent of that. Sadly his top 10... not so much. But still good enough to take the lead.

And ALfred just fends off another contender. That is a fair few in a row now. Empire's top 10 was the difference between 1st and 2nd here. Just one more correct placement anywhere would have been enough to take the top spot at the interval...

Yep, I did say interval  

 

I'll be back to rattle off the final 20 in about 20 mins.

Remember to drink plenty of fluids. Proper hydration is an underappreciated component of good countdown-ing.

And Spaghetti's top 15 stumble see's Alfred still retain the lead. How long can this last? Can he go all the way!!!

 

Spaghetti was strong for large parts of this season, and even at the end, a strong top 15 would have seem him comfortably into the top 10. 

 

But.. Winter is coming...

Preseason, Damien was one of my big tips to win this whole summer. I traditionally very strong weekly player who has on occasion stumbled at the preseason stage, I thought the tweaks to the weekly questions would potentially lift him clear of the chasing pack. But something it seemed, just didn't click this time around. Now it's just about how crazy close to Tele does he finish this year?

Panda is another player so close to breaking that 4 million points barrier. There was so much to be positive about here. 2nd best weeklies score for example. But the preseason will need to be stronger in order to challenge in the winter time. 2,157,000 is lower than all but 3 of the final top 20.

Possibly our biggest preseason casualty of the summer, 24lost had a good main season, with decent SOTM results, but those final two tables see them slide way down the table.
