Ok, Edited mine
Great. Seems fine now. Interesting that you have went for Lobato btw. I hope you are right, he is really nice
I'm actually an Aussie but I like to play a bit risky and stay away from the number 1 favourite. hopefully it pays of (unlike in fantasy betting ) |

Dang. I stand by my point though and just play it on extreme like I do with my PCM. Difficult answer is #2, rest of the answers stay the same.

Rankings have been updated in the first post.
Remember that it is OK for new members to join now. There is still plenty of room to catch up, as you see in the rankings one stage can go 8 points or more between teams.
For those who have placed more than one difficult answer I will use the first one as your difficult pick and the other(s) will count as regular bets.

Well clearly the first stage bet isn't valid. Nice try though. Also you need a difficult pick. You might already have one, but please note which one it is then.

It was as hard question to get right today, as 6 Italian riders managed to get into the top 10. Only SotD and Cio had decided to pick a hard question and go for the answer "5" which gives 3x2 points each. A lot had 1 as a difficult answer giving them -3.
The overall rankings has been updated in post 1.

Todays answer was (Of course) Michael Matthews. 7 of you guessed that, while 4 people took a difficult answer, and failed miserably.
Ian Butler took a good step away from the bottom, while cio who was 2nd yesterday made room for MARSUPILAMI. Alone in front is SotD.
The rankings have been updated in the first post.
