How’s the “best of the rest” competition coming along? It looks like most of the 9th place and down teams are still playing as you would expect.
Pretty well, it seems. Every eligible team wanted to participate, which I think is good for the total playership numbers--Showdown had almost as many players as Brainbuster, despite the game still not being on the app. Newcomer Alabama's Little Bit of Texas made a move into first place this week, with perennial power Time Out West not far behind:

Congrats to the 2 favorites making the McCarthy Final again. Excellent performances to back up those top rankings. It’s tough to constantly avoid a land mine. Danny Ks had 22 boxes and the Fellowship had 19.
Thanks, BUD! It was everything we could do to keep those 19 boxes working for the whole game--several of us had to run boxes back to the chargers between rounds just to make sure they would not crap out before the end of the game. I welcome the day when the game is back on the app.

So, what’s the story on Hanko’s? I’m not familiar with them. Mensa J is on the team so I guess they are some of his old team from Portland OR?
Yes, Hanko's is indeed the old Portland team, late of The Old Barn (and Macadam's before that).
