I've a new high score, 2097, but that only puts me 17th. Why must the scores keep going up. I'll never reach top ten... Also starting to branch out in my types of games played. Only 1 of my games is my preferred settings now, so I expect to go down.

Yeah I saw you way up there qeee. It keeps getting tougher though, huh?
I branched out a bit with my play style too, but instead of losing more I won my past three games. Probably won't be able to hold it long though...

A frightening streak of good luck puts me back at 12th with 2152 points. At the beginning of the week I think I had 1900 points. This equals my second highest position ever... and will certainly last just as long, i.e., gone before you read this. Still, I figured I might as well post something mildly huzzah-ishy.

I saw it after I read this, Zaw! Very good job with that.
And keep in mind how tightly packed the whole group around you is...just wait for Scorba to lose a game and you move up another rank

HUZZAH!
That's very nice. 12th is my highest ever positioning I think. Or possibly 11, still the big boys won't let me into the top ten.

I hit 2248 points for 7th place, so I must be cool
But before the day was out I found myself back to 9th, so maybe I'm not so cool just yet

Nobody's ever called me "Big boy" before....
So I assume "Big" is referring to my score, cause I really don't have a weight problem (except for my maybe my top heavy brain, lol)
and I'll assume the "boy" reference has more to do with Rookie status that to my gender. But just when does "rookie" status change to "seasoned veteran"?

but as of this morning... oh yeah.... Back to #7.... 2269 points at 110 games...
So.......... that makes me a real cool "Big boy"

I should be #5

Argghhh! Just won a game and got to a new high-water mark of 2439 (@115 games)
This is the same score as dminus... so why does he get the #5 spot, and I have to settle for #6

boo hoo.
Oh well, it doesn't really matter since scores are always changing... but dang it, I might not get another chance to be in the top 5.

If AK would let me play every game with him (along with Wicked and Poet)...I'm pretty sure I could get to #1 in no time!

Well I still haven't made it to the #5 position

... but at least I finally got past dminus.

Currnetly Ranked #4

Well it took a while to get to #4...
But I got there...

...(for the moment)
2480 @ 120 games.....
And I ONLY need TWO HUNDRED TWENTY SEVEN more points to move up ONE more position
](./images/smilies/eusa_wall.gif)
(only 227 points... sigh)
Sadly, my score will be dropping soon... can't win 'em all...
And Scorba is only 8 points behind, with eye84free a mere 17 behind... therefore, I figure it's time for me to move over and let them pass.
But watch out boys.... I'm gonna be all over your rear view mirror looking to get back in front.

Holy crap! You need that many points to be top 50?! Man, times do change... I finally made it back to 8th, but needed almost 2300 points to do it. Last time I was there I had 1600...
Fortunately, it does appear that the top is leveling off a bit... the top isn't increasing as fast as it once was. Perhaps there'll eventually be a roof to it all.
