Terry, just a heads up... there are now 28 new Immortals in the Normal Mode so we might get to 30 this set or the next.

And as I just finished up the full day version daily challenge.. it also occurs to me to throw out a reminder that if tomorrow's a.m. set ends up as the last, the GC based daily challenges should probably be turned off as well.

To be safe I've already turned new GC daily challenges off.

Our medalists include two first-time visitors to the podium as well as four serial winners:

Normal Mode: rossian (6th podium finish), Ampelos (1st podium finish) and magijoh1 (11th podium finish)
Hardcore: MrNobody97 (1st podium finish), WesleyCrusher (8th podium finish) and MikeMaster99 (6th podium finish)

The rating champions were Mooseflapper (Normal, 2121) and daver852 (Hardcore, 1940), neither of which needed to go all the way to Immortal to achieve their victory.

The race speed was average at 1488 games and, including repeats, we had a record total of 109 Immortals (85 normal and 24 hardcore)

Congratulations to all badge winners, to the returning Immortals and, of course, the Global Challenge 29 champions!

That is one impressive set of figures.

I have been wondering why I voluntarily put myself through the stress of this race, but still pause to wonder when the next race starts. I know that Hardcore is beyond my reach, so can only cheer on those that made it.

Well done everyone.
