Hi kids!

My jaw just dropped. Seriously.

When you get a chance, go to the Word Count Scoreboard page. That's cool, right? Well, anyway, I was looking at that and thinking to myself (like the little engineer that I am) that the "Total Words" means nothing, of course. What I wanted to see was Average Words, because that's the *true* measure, is it not? Try it. I dare you. Click on the "Average Words" column.

Okay, yes, so what.... now click it again so that it sorts descending.... see anything of interest? I'll just leave it at that for now.

There are a few theories to that

1) They are all waiting until the end to post their word count, and have a 'come from behind' win

2) They all signed up and forgot

3) There's no one really there...

I guess we could do a friendly shout-out to the Perth-Melbourne contest that was the subject of one of the web radio shows. Hah! They shoulda come out west and talked to some Everett people!
