This is the closest Contest I can remember going into the final weekend.

We have three within 6 pts of the championship with a tie for 2nd place

Daisy and NAC are tied for 4th, and three more are within 4 pts. (including a tie for 7th) of each other to get the sixth spot in the standings.

Good Luck ot all of you this weekend!

[Daisy]

Well I have been been about 30 points behind at a certain point of the season and although this round wasn't my best, I'm pretty happy with 4th. Although I still have a very slim chance for the top 3, I have to have a lot of luck to get that, so my goal is to stay fourth. I'm going to post my predictions soon.
