Haha, I don't think the option that will really occur is in the poll.

Which is "No, but he will have a good striking point for the next year".
It's not very spectacular, but perhaps the likeliest. The most spectacular one of course is the final option, though I think both of us would not like to see that happen.

Also, as before I should note that it is not necessarily my goal to overtake the #1 position. I'm not even sure if I have any overall goals, apart from defending CR's and beating a few specific WRs. If the result of my continuous grinding is that I reach #1 at some point, that would be cool in and of itself of course (at least for me

). For now that's far off.
EDIT: Sorry for the boring answer.
