| Away I'll be away from the 18th until early May (about 3 weeks). I probably won't be writing news during that time, but Matt should hopefully continue to update your scores and keep the site running. If you'd like someone to do the news, the following people currently have accounts: Mark, Vince. POQ How close was it? Do we need another playoff? I guess not this time. Movement Mario Kart Wii was just released, so action may slow down over the next few weeks. 60Hz #3 Aron Langerak made a small AF cut to finish on 4.00 AF pts. #2 Hendrik Bunde is on 3.94, so Aron might be able to gain the silver position with another PR or 2. Overall #11 Olivier Peruch sent in 3 new PRs, and is 0.7pts from passing old rivals #9 Marius Mollenhauer and #10 Raphael Segas. #146 Maximilliam Seger filled his timesheet and debuts on the ladder inside the top-150. He also reached Hero D level. Max is slightly ahead of #148 Markus Hobelsberger, who also reached the top-150 (passing 8 players) and Hero D. #191 Leandro Cavali and #192 Andrew Howes were active. It was Leandro who reached Expert A first, with his rival still Expert B. #281 Ian Gee secured his top-300 position with a 30pt AF cut. He should reach the 60Hz top-200 with his next few PRs. #321 Ben Davis is heading for the same barrier. If Ben can repeat this week's 21pt AF cut next week, he will get to 301st place. #515 Jacob Goldfinger improved all 32 of his PRs in a single day (or so he says) for a 71 pt AF cut. So in 7 more days he should be able to cut 490 AF pts and reach the top-10.  New Records One record this week. Marijn Jongbloed improved the 60Hz Mushroom Bridge lap to 25"759 G+3, 0"04 quicker than Olivier Peruch's G+2 score from 1.5 years ago. New Players Welcome to... Jay Dodge, USA (712th, Beg B).
