I will certainly participate. This, my debut SHC season, has been great fun so far. Can't wait for the TOC! :D

By cracky, I remember when the SHC was completed in summer and was run on steam! Let's see if I can show these whippersnappers a thing or two still --

And, GET OFF MY LAWN while you're at it!

I want to report that based on the information in my database right now, only 2 players who are eligible for the College WC (cheezguyty and Sir Thopas) have played on 30 or more days of the SHC (40 and 39, respectively). (ATB and Rookie definitely have more than 5 players who've played more than 30 days.) Therefore, according to the rules, the college WC should be replaced with a general WC.

Good call! First year I played was 2007 and I qualified, but passed on it because I knew I'd be busy and wasn't sure how often I'd be able to answer the sets and hey, after all, I got in first try, I'll do it every year!
didn't come close in 08, 09, 10, or last year! This is my first time since then I'm in the running and I think I'm gonna fall short again.
Take your chances when you get'em!

Being on the bubble is an uneasy position.

Ooh, just 25 points out of the running... GL, Paucle. Would that I could be there to contend for last! :lol:

Thanks DoT for another great Summer Hiatus Challenge! You've created the gold standard of online quizzes, with the most fair arbitration process I've seen.

Congrats to those in the ToC!

My standard for success has been whether or not I'm on the first page of the scoresheet. I've decided I need a bigger monitor.

In like Flynn.

(That would be Joe Flynn, who played Captain Wally "Old Leadbottom" Binghamton on McHale's Navy.)
