[Cagiva9]

Thanks for stepping up Stray

[KSTAT124]

Thanks, straycat. I really appreciate you taking over the Standings.

On another subject, three weeks into the new Challenge and I'm 91 points behind! Not exactly a great start!

Thanks Cag and KSTAT.
The system you shot my way is much simpler than the method I used where I printed out the whole challenge page and shuffled pages back and forth. If anybody cares too check their own scores week by week and bring an oversight to my attention by all means feel free to do so. I will continue to do what I can to help with TTR. If anybody wants to jump in at anytime I have no problem stepping aside.
Good luck everybody its still early and if my memory serves me dont let KSTAT fool you he is like a freakin closer at the race track that waits till the last turn to make his move.
