It's "A Quick One 'Fore We Go Play" . the "to" makes it scan wrong.

Congrats to Ethan, Kristof and Johnny D.

Jeff, I noticed that Rick D. got 7 points but he doesn't appear on the results list.  Does not voting in the an ABC comp mean you relinquish all points in that ABC comp, or was that just an oversight? - just checking on the rules :)

Thanks everyone (all 5 of you) for the votes and the silver...this was a strange one, wasn't it?

thanks Kristof - I did not know that (I understood the DQ part but didn't realise all votes were erased also)

Yes, like SOTM, if the votes aren't in on time, you don't get the points on the results list.  I figure it's pretty lenient since I'm usually at least a day late anyway (or extending the deadline if requested).

As for the medals, Johnny D makes that determination...and based on past experience, Peter will get a Bronze since there was a tie for 2nd.

Sorry, Jeff. I blanked on this one. Too much going on. You can send your wife over to spank me.
