 Weird, eh?

 My time today would have been a lot better if I hadn't had to take a phone call half way through. Grrrr...

 I so hate it when that happens.  My officemate kept trying to talk to me during today's.  I hope I didn't seem too horribly rude.Quote: | Originally Posted by foilman My time today would have been a lot better if I hadn't had to take a phone call half way through. Grrrr... |

 | Posted - 2006.02.23 14:31:43 Yeah, I noticed that - I was very surprised to come second four days in a row and still be so far off the pace. Remarkable consistency, Doc. But I guess you'll be none too pleased if we crack the record this weekend and you don't get a mention despite being champion.

 Ha!!  Maybe they'll put me down as honorable mention or something?Quote: | Originally Posted by procrastinator But I guess you'll be none too pleased if we crack the record this weekend and you don't get a mention despite being champion.   | 
 All the same, it'd be pretty amusing. 
 I think the key is that my weekend scores happened to both be close 2nds, and that seems to be where you can make up serious time.  That, and the 1st placers on Sat & Sun (Procrastinator & Astrokath) were around 5 minutes back from the other on their off day.  5 minutes being approximately what I am ahead...
 
 Hmm this would be a kinda fun stat to see as another column on the daily champion list.  Unless it's getting cramped for space.  That, or just replace the time taken column with an Olympic style "seconds back from leader" approach.  (note to self, watching too much Olympics...)

 Wednesday: 2m 16s

 Hehe, so much for that idea!Quote: | Originally Posted by foilman I think it means you're more consistent than the rest of us! | 
 I got stuck in a bad FP.  I guess doing it twice in 30 minutes isn't *that* bad, right?  |
