| Movement #21 Marc Schwartz made a small cut, getting closer to #20 Rene Bauer. He didn't pass any players, but he reached Myth C level in ARR. Rivals #130 Paulo Roberto Presotto, #133 Ian Gee and #144 Jivago Pacheco da Silva were active, as usual. Both Brazilians passed a few players, but Ian scored a 15pt cut to advanced 16 positions and pass Jivago. In their rivalry, Paulo has the best AF, Jivago has the best ARR and Ian has the most wins. MKW champ #138 Alvin van Asselt squeezed in a PR before going on holiday for a few weeks, passing fellow countryman and MKDD veteran #139 Lars Nouwen by one spot. He is unlikely to be active for a while, but maybe #165 Liam Stanton could be a good addition to the previous rivalry. He is still outside the top-150, but making progress. This week he passed four players and is quite close to reaching top-100 in 60Hz. 60Hz No. 170 Alvaro Fababu scored 8 PRs and moved up 10 places. Unfortunately there aren't any active players near him. #337 Alencar Faria was active again, moving up 6 spots. He broke into the top-250 in 60Hz, reaching No. 249 on the ladder. He is nine spots above newcomer No. 258 Mickael Smolen. New Records No new records. New Players Welcome to... Mickael Smolen, France (351th, Advanced A). He joins from MKW, where he's in the top-10. He has a lot of potential on his f-laps, since most of them were done with only one mushroom. |
