Moves Ranker (# of 1st place UNDER/OVER) - Through <Round 5>

Score,UserID

Things are back to normal as <chessmoron> messed up the scoring and <WinKing> corrected him. In other normal news, <Switch> leads 3 Rankers. <GE> continues to lead Bonus Ranker. <Penguincw> has made a stunning run up the Bonus Ranker scoreboard, as he is doing everything in his power to stop a possible consecutive Quadruple Crown.

In other news, <Winky> asked who predicted Topalov to win this tournament. <Penguincw> responded, "Well, I did, sort of, by using my patented reverse prediction order. But what people don't know is that really is reverse psychology when I'm pretending to play reverse psychology." He started to share a few thousand more well chosen words before <offramp> dropped a water balloon on him.

In other news, <amw> has invented some new kind of infectious disease he hopes to spread among all the contestants so that he can win. <OCF> is very proud of <amw> for such outside the box thinking and wishes him well in his efforts. And <juan31> apparently has admitted to being a pyromaniac although <OCF> admits his Spanish is a bit rusty. <GE> has a new strategy where he picks game winners based on their size. He won't be picking the little runt Ding to win again after learning a hard lesson.

What will happen next? A plague? A huge fire? Little runt tournament participants attacked by disgruntled contestants in our contest? The tension is palpable and all of the contestants have worried looks as they try their best to focus on the task at hand. <OCF> pleaded with the tournament directors for an off day to gather his thoughts. That didn't do a thing. But then <chessmoron> glared at them, and they said, "Certainly, sir, great idea, sir, a rest day is surely in order, sir." All our contestants are greatly thankful and will come back Wednesday rested and refreshed.

Glad the fatwa has been lifted.

< I didn't get the one with <juan31> until I read his chessforum. LOL, too funny for words. >

<OCF> is everywhere and nowhere (but mostly everywhere) on this site...

Couldn't hold it off for one more day and not have the Rest Day on the same day as the U.S. Championship's? ;p
