Inexplicably forgot to visit the garage when I had a damaged car, but I doubt I was going to get much further anyway.

I wonder if there is any point in buying cars beyond the 5.01 as they are just too fast to control.

Great results, EAB team!!!

[Graham Humphrey]

Well, it wasn't that long ago I was asking where all the EAB players were - we only had two people entered from here. It's fair to say over the last week or so it has really burst into life. Great work and in some cases, proper dedication to the cause.

You should do tracks 7-9 first. The game is a lot easier that way!

Thanks john4p, when I got my best score I followed your suggestion on the Lemon site and I played from race 9 to race 1 on the hard level as well.

I haven't played anymore since then... and, at this point, I think that I won't play with this game for a while but I really enjoyed it and, at the end, I appreciated also the bargaining with the salesman.

I am very happy for the good results of our team! Go EAB go!

Last day of the round folks, before we take on Golden Axe tomorrow

Just had my last try at this. Only twice did I beat track 7 this week, but then failed once on track 3 due to too much oil and the other time I was destroyed on track 1 because I got too greedy and didn't repair my car before it.

Unlikely someone will beat your score, so congratz in advance!

The round is now over and what started relatively slowly became very lively in the final week or so, resulting in a healthy number of scores being submitted. The fact that this is a popular game and well suited to the competition definitely helps.

There was almost nothing to choose between the top three players, but liviux76 eventually took the gold medal by virtue of having the most cash left over.

Like liviux, john4p also completed every race, but had to settle for a close second place this time.

LinesMachine prevented an all-EAB podium by securing bronze, again managing the impressive feat of finishing all 27 races.

Due to the closeness of a lot of scores, the standings haven't been affected too much. John4p still has a 48-point lead over liviux76 (cut from 50), who in turn is has a 20-point buffer from LinesMachine in third. Harry has now hit a century of league points in fourth, with lifeschool very much chasing him down five points back in fifth.

As for the extremely tight team battle, this one continued the theme with much to-ing and fro-ing during the round, but EAB just came out on top in the end meaning they edge in front by seven games to six. But there's still five points up for grabs this season.

Golden Axe follows shortly...

I am glad I could contribute as I left for vacation shortly after the round start. Anyway, Lemon team lost this round, congrats to winners.

You were right, john4p, I knew that was difficult to finish the game with more cash than me, because, saving money, you risk to break the car or to be eliminated in an "easier" race...

This game isn't just about ability but also about a bit of luck...

BTW, Great win for EAB, now let's play Golden Axe!

[Graham Humphrey]

Couple of minor things for me to clear up, I've just realised...

Firstly, John's lead at the top is 47 points, not 48, damn my dodgy maths.

Also I ought to congratulate Harry on clocking up his 100th Super League appearance - a century of points this season and a century of games played overall, just the seventh player to reach that milestone.
