RESULTS - Round 18

spacer

High scoring for most, Round 18 brought the Backpocket yet another new leader. Bravo to J@TS who find themselves momentarily in the gold medal position. Even the Roumanian judge agreed on their perfect 9.

The 9 club was large this week with Sharolyn, Gai & David, James, Omar, Melissa and George all chiming in. And then, of course, there was Clicky Justine, who top scored for the round with one of those 9s and a margin of 64! So she gets a gold in the individual event, followed by Sharolyn and Melissa in the silver and bronze positions respectively. The mistress salutes you all.

Omar 'the missile' Cygnet gained a whopping three positions to climb into the Top 10, clearly a fast finisher. Sally on the other hand is performing much like Niger's Hamadou Djibo Issaka who finished one minute and forty seconds behind all other competitors in his Olympic single sculls repechage. Sally achieved the ultimate success with what she claims to be her new 'anti-tipping program', tipping a perfect 0 this week. The mistress wonders whether it's stubbornness or originality that means she doesn't simply turn her tips around ...

As we head into the back end of the season, with only five home and away rounds to go, the Mistress de Mission wishes you all the best. In the spirit of Michael Leunig, I encourage you to forego 'Faster, Higher, Stronger' and tip 'Slower, Deeper, Wiser'.
