POINT STANDINGS AFTER NINE ROUNDS
* "Raven's 69 Hotties" = 25 (Raven 16, SJ247 9).
* "Lom's Laddies"..... = 112 (Darvlay 36, Orangutan 30, Chronic Leaky 18, Mikelom 16, Shortcircuit 12).
......................
Note: "Raven's 69 Hotties" nine round deficit = 87. Final Round 'Fighting Chance' Provision will be made.
😉
ROUND TEN (Point Value = 10 each)
48. 4 = G C
49. 5 = T F T (H A S)
50. 269 = D U C
................
Bonus (PV = 15)
51. 3 = M E
.......................................................
Note: My only interest has been that the competition might remain transparent and fair, and that the outcome might be exciting and close.
Following "Final Round Fighting Chance/Recovery Bonus" is reserved for "Raven's 69 Hotties". It becomes precedent setting for the thread.
Request that "Lom's Laddies" respect this Fighting Chance Bonus (PV = 30 each) by refraining from posting any replies to puzzles # 52-54.
Thank you, Gentlemen.
52. 19 = J
53. 36 = N T P
54. 85 = P C E D C (L)

REMATCH #1 UPDATE:
1. Raven69's motion in favor of Rematch #1 has been seconded by SJ247, who has also volunteered to lead the ladies team.
2. All the guys have merely voted 'present' by reason of their posts. No motion or second or desire to lead the team to date.
3. Round Ten concludes 1:00 PM Saturday. If there is reciprocal male in l be allowed for the duration of Rematch #1. Advise if interested.
Thanks.

Easier questions are automatically worth less than harder ones. Also opens up the possibility of some gamesmanship--if you've got an answer to a tough one and you think the competition won't figure it out you can gamble and hold off on answering.
