Dnet update for 02-Aug-2003 to 03-Aug-2003

OGR-24 Completion Percentage: 98.68 (+0.01)

New Members
Debbie Parker in OGR-24

Please welcome Debbie Parker to the ranks of OGR-24! She became our 24th member in OGR-24 and promptly showed her heels to Beyond, Shalidar, and Fizban! Nice entrance Debbie and welcome aboard!

Well, typically I start with the good news and leave less popular news till end (Or forget it entirely … ). Not today. In RC5-72 we slipped another 2 places to #70. Our high-water mark was #61 and since achieving it we have slipped bit by bit until we find ourselves in the current position. And we are likely to slip yet further …

However …

Those teams that have passed us have one heck of a surprise coming their way … we have been concentrating on OGR because of 24’s immanent ending (98.68% completed). RC5-72 is 0.035% completed (yes, that’s right … less than ½ of 1% completed). Team Ninja is going to be back and we are going to claim our top spot!

So speaking of OGR-24 … we were the number 1 team for the third day running, 12 of the top 25 individuals yesterday were Ninja members … we more than doubled the number 2 team … and we are adding to our DC repository score on a daily basis in this project … It is quite possible that our final rise in this project could elevate us into the Top10 in the DCI-M as well as gain us a place in the overall ranking (overtaking OC Australia!)

Individually … TGC continued his quest to achieve the Top100 ranking … only 32 more places to go!
Sydney Freedman joined the Top 1000 … becoming our 11th member to achieve this honor. Longest Highway added 12K+ and increased her score by almost 50% … another such day and she will also join the Top1000!
Fallguy crested the 6 figure marked in OGR-25, becoming our 9th member to achieve this very honorable mark!

As for special awards … Shadow Dragon has to take the cake, for racking up a total of 4 crunches as well as quintupling and more his OGR-24 score! You da’ man!
