Enjoy and Good luck to all the teams.

Anyway better luck next year.
Yep. I read it before. 40 people seems to be alot :).
It seems like we would have to recruit more talents or play together with another small team … or else we would not likely to be able to race until the end – http://force.vnsecurity.net/dc18-clgt.html
Looks like the final 9 are:
Underminers (@tlas, drb, jrod, mezzendo, plato, psifertex, shiruken, wrffr)
European Nopsled Team (beat out their counterpart Jamaican)
TwoSixNina
Uberminers (ghost team)
Lollersk8erz (skating over the world motto)
Gon
Painsec (new team good results)
Acme Pharm (ninjas of the northwest)
Routards (litterly)
Yeah .. top 10 teams are really rock! Any idea where TwoSixNina team come from?
The game went smoothly and pretty ok for us in the fist day but it became very bad on the last 20 hours of the game. We had a wrong strategy to play 55 hours continuously without enough of rest and sleep from the beginning of the game. Hence, after about 40++ hours, we were all so tired and sleepy. Timezone is bad as the game ends at 10AM on Monday so majority of members went to sleep while those 400/500 points challenges were getting released. Ended up rank 33 by getting only 700 points more from 3300 to 4000 pts for the last 24hours of the game :(. We should have relax on the first day and focus our energy on the second half of the game.
