I just want it to be known that I object to the expression "very small team". We big like Rhino.

Team China doesn't look all that small with 278 active members to our 61. The team that created the challenge is composed of just 1 too. This is a strange one you've booked us into CP

Chicken Patty · Nov 4, 2011

Just wanted to get us going with something. I'm keeping my eye out for other challenges.

Are we going to have to stop the Very Small Team Race in order to jump into the 7th Birthday Challenge?

No need to. Both challenges are based on points earned throughout all WCG projects. So points will count towards both competitions.

What about all your points?

We could use all the help we can get.

I'm doing a 6900 (-bigadv) right now but when that is completed I will switch my last 12 treads to WCG.

It's gonna be close, but do you guys think we can pass Ukraine before the end of the challenge?

Standings as of now:
5. Ukraine - 10,940,089
6. TechPowerUp! - 10,661,114

Our points for yesterday:

TechPowerUp! - 2,040,635
Ukraine - 1,256,619

Considering we are only 278,975 points behind and that we outdid them yesterday in points by 784,016 points, we should pass them by a good margin. What do you guys think?
