Cheating! Who's doing that? Does it look like I'm in the top ten? We just consult each other, and come to a conclusion without data mining of course. Data mining imho would be the true cheating.

Great contest again.  Thank you ThirdGreenHam and Sckao.  This is my 2nd year and learned a lot since my rookie season last year.  It has been frustrating at times but always fun.   I donated my time via comic pressing in the past and it has been fun getting to know board members so I am offering up my services again:

Past winners in the past include the Amazing Toro: can grade though plastic and cardboard.  Toro has kindly agreed to endorse this prize.
