[ModE98]

GREEN didn't do us very good today

[clarkrl2]

architecto25 went hyper-green today to take the lead at the halfway point. Value Buy also had a solid gain to take second and ModE95 is third. Those are the only players beating the benchmark. You can never have to much green.

Didn't do anything for me at all, in fact, it hurt my pick...it was that early lose...mine did come back some from a bigger drop.

[clarkrl2]

architecto25 is out front by fifteen with just one day to go. uncle23 leads a contentious battle with Value Buy for second. ModE95 is the only other player beating the benchmark.

Congrats Arch, Uncle & VB....mine was a lousy pick!

Kadee, No, you probably made an excellent pick; But what you

forgot …. you forgot to type "SHORT" after the symbol.... LOL.

Arch.

[clarkrl2]

I will need to update the stats page. There is definitely at least two errors. uncle23 has a win and I have no wins.

[ModE98]

CONGRATS to architecto, uncle & Value Buy for week's Win, Place & Show .

[clarkrl2]

Ok. The error seems to be fixed. Several players had the lines from another player. Here are the corrected lines. 

Edit: No they still were wrong.

Third time will be a charm. I just know it.

Cross fingers!!!
