FTR, I caught the error in #3 above - “16lb” (that was my answer!) should be counted with “16 lb,” of course. The standings are correct.

Dude. Beat us, yes. Stomped? With a two point margin on a 362 point max? I think your definitions need some reworking.

**criminey.jicket** stomped all three of us. Along with many others. 😉 And you’re back in the basement, after all.  
Thank you again, **Dolores** , for being our host, and thanks, too, to **notfrommensa** for another fun topic.
