Good to have some competition at the top, after it was stagnant for so long. TH still has about 10 points worth of ratings penalty though btw. I can't do anything right recently, it's so depressing! First by the end of the year yeah?

He means that TH10 has played few enough challenges that he's still being penalized for the uncertainty of his rating. Most of the top players have already reached the minimum uncertainty.

googly was the lucky player of game #1,000,000. It's probably more relevant to count the games that have been finished though (currently 186,523). For a while I was storing every game regardless of how many dice were placed, but now they don't hit the database if someone is re-rolling their first rack over and over to get a good start.

Sometimes I get first in the Daily Challenge while thinking I don't have any shot at it as I place the rack 9 dice.

None of my percentages have seemed to pull through for me recently, it's been brutal. Pretty sure you doomswitched me with that comment Gaby. Although it was around the time I claimed the win in the race to Expert with TH, so maybe I doomswitched myself.

[x] Will be 6th by the end of today.

Did not expect to come third in yesterday's challenge. I thought there would have been enough people who successfully snaked the 4s and/or maximised the bonus to put me in the bottom half. My good scores never seem to come on games where I think I played well.

zomg

leading the pack of 20

I expected higher scores than mine, since it is very well possible.
I would be mildly surprised to win this DC.

I read this before I played, and when I finished would have bet that I had the same score as Gaby. Two consecutive wins would've been a nice surprise though after my recent run of form!

I expected someone to make snakes (6s outer chain, 4s inner major chain, either basic or dynasty strat) or at least connect all 4s as treep did.

Runner up again

A 7 point gap to no. 3.
I don´t think I have ever seen scores that close.

I only play once or twice a week, but I've been consistently getting top 5s. I feel a win coming soon.
