Since the gauntlet was handed down on July 2nd, there has been a lot of action in the 1st to 20,000 Gamerscore challenge. Although Crook was sidelined for five plus days with a nasty case of Herpes Simplex 10 (well, it was some bad blood sugar levels, but we won\'t tell) he still padded his score to reach the low 17,000 range. Problem is, Zapa had been racking up scores on vacation, and zoboa decided to get serious. As a result, 18 days into the competition here is your current standings as of 7/20 at 1:30 p.m. EST
zoboa - 18,354
a1zapa - 17,668
CROOKLYNMAYO - 17,386
As you can see, now that the itching and burning has gone down, Crook is within grasp of Zapa, but a solid 1,000 points behind Z. Check back next week for another update, and possibly a winner in this race.
