no8120 is pulling a Ferdinand right now.

Not going to win, but all of their points are in green and red, and they are in the top 3 without having to post basically at all.

If they posted even a handful of times, this competition would be over.

legacyme3 : Well, he's been doing this the last 2-3TdVs, so it's basically his usual pace

The reason he has such a strong pace resides precisely in not posting. All his time is dedicated to playing games, take screenshots, upload them, rating stuff and repeat. He's made this his own routine for all months of the year, so posting a few times would require an effort from him that he probably couldn't bear for a full month, and even if he could bear it there's a chance it might burn him.

I personally think that, if he tried to aim for all jerseys instead of focusing on what he excels at, he wouldn't have scored as much. He'd maybe still be third because the gap to fourth is huge, but away from the top two and possibly without that gap that has almost secured him his second overall jersey this month.

thing1 : Nah, not purple at all. It might give that impression, but the noticeable reddish tint makes it clearly Garnet.

EX Palen :

Nah, I think he'd be crushing all of you guys.

Even if he took like 10 minutes to make a few posts (with how slow the competition is), he'd still get all his work done, easily. And then he'd get between 1-6 points per day in posts. He'd probably be running away with this competition.

legacyme3 : Kinda like I said, this would be something similar to what we seen with Summer 2014's TdV were we have a tight 3-way race for the win, although that this months slightly spread out, and a little less activity, but overall closeness is about the same.

Like this time, it can come down to me, EX, and No.


Anyways, it will be tough to tell on who win this month, like I said, it may end up coming down to the last day.

I don't know... I think Igor has this one locked up. All he has to do is just enough hold off Ex Palen. If Ex Palen wants to win, he's going to have to get crazy and really push himself, while also holding off Igor. If EX wants a chance, he's going to have to time ir properly and perfectly.

Today's Double CP Action is Walkthrough.



IgorBird122 grabs 2 Jerseys.

Despite his massive review, and enjoying double CP for it, Igor only managed to score four more points than me. I thought he would shut the competition, but he left it almost as open as it has always been, so the show must go on.

I won't be able to compete today the way I wanted to due to real life, but I will still get juicy points to continue the struggle. Also, with today's move, I could have bought myself some time to get my weapons ready until the last day, even more now that I'm free of any business in real life.

We have quite the "battle" in the HoF as well: me, no 8120 and thing1 are all within 71 points in the Total Points chart. Surely not a gap we could close this month, but we can end this competition very close to him and so January could start with a couple more goals for me.

EX Palen : Yeah, I have spent a little too much time towards the review yesterday, and only placed 4th in blue and 5th in green. Even despite my review I posted which got me 2 7-pointers yesterday.

Anyways, it will be a tough 5 days, like the only thing I got to do for the remainder of the month is to try and defend my Rainbow lead against both EX and No, as well as defend my Blue lead against thing. As long as I don't have much of any interference between now and Tuesday, I should be fine on winning this month.

EX Palen : As of now, I don't really care about the Points Total Chart. But, that could change in half a year. We'll have to see. 

Igor, stop making me have to work for blue.

Today's Double CP Action is Article.



EX Palen grabs 3 Jerseys.

Yesterday surely rekindled the flames of the battle!

I recovered some juicy points for the overall Red, and now I feel like I have chances at it after almost losing hope. Now I totally have to make sure I have enough weapons available should the fight get very intense in the next days.

The battle for Rainbow also opened up greatly, with just 6 points between me and Igor, so I totally have a shot at it as well. I honestly prefer to win Red over Rainbow, but I guess the efforts for the former can also result in success for the latter. Igor will surely focus on Blue after mathematically securing Yellow today, so we'll see a very close battle for Rainbow and the remaining jerseys until the end.

Yesterday's jerseys put me in a good spot regarding the HoF, very close to 10th in total jerseys and finally standing alone in 2nd for most Reds. Could probably aim for a couple spots higher on most Yellows as well, but that will surely come in time.

EX Palen : Yeah, if you combine the close battle for Red between you and No, and the close battle between me and Thing for Blue, these two battles combined is what is causing our battle for the Rainbow lead.

thing1 : I got this far for the blue jersey, and I shall not drop blue.


Yesterday, even despite getting 1st for Blue, 3rd for Yellow, and even 5th for Green, yesterday didn't go exactly to plan for me. I was hoping for a little bit more, like I was hoping for another post to get a 7-pointer in blue and 2nd in Yellow, but my 5th post was in the final hour and the 6th post could more in likely get me DQed in Yellow, and it was better to play safe than sorry.

EX Palen : So that's why Igor keeps messing up my plans for blue... because he's trying to compete with you, EX.

Happy Birthday Annette & SunflowerGaming!

Bah, staying up until less than two hours to go for the day didn't pay out as much in the end, Yuna disabled my 7 pointer and overtook me to take Green. Good thing I'm not sacrificing anything by staying up until that late (5 AM my time) anymore, otherwise it'd have been a total waste of time.

My gap towards the overall leader and Red leader have both been reduced to 5 points, and funny enough, the everlasting battle for Blue is also at a gap of 5 points between the top two. Looks like we're in for three days of close competition where significant moves up and down the rankings can still happen.

thing1 : Be lucky that I went ahead and gave you the blue yesterday, because I had like 2+ additional posts to make that day, and I wouldn't get DQed from both Blue and Yellow if I made them,


Anyways, I'm basically going neck to neck with EX with the lead, and trying to at least manage to keep blue this month and get my first blue jersey and end up winning all 4 jerseys throughout TdV history, although trying to also attempting my 2nd TdV win, I got a long, bumpy few days to accomplish this, because even in a matter of 1 day, I could end up losing it all. Well, except for the Yellow jersey, that I have already clinched this month.

Holy run on sentence, I have no idea what you said. (+1 wordcount?) 

I am surprised that I wasn't DQ'ed from blue. 4 of my posts were in the last hour. Perhaps it was because of the first post? It was a little longer than others, so perhaps I got given a pass? 

Good luck, Igor. I want my blue. 

thing1 : I don't know, the last 3 days, I'm going into complete IB-Overdrive. Remember the last time I went into complete IB-Overdrive, I ended up winning my first TdV. Don't believe on how the whole complete IB-Overdrive works, just ask Zander, who was the one who tried to take my TdV lead back in January 2015's TdV.

I also want my first ever blue and complete my 4 jerseys. Even after taking Yellow and maybe Rainbow, but basically for me... It's Blue or Bust.
So, it's going to be a tough fight between us for Blue.

IgorBird122 grabs 2 Jerseys to keep EX Palen away

Igor was very close to get a second seven pointer yesterday, which would have almost secured him Blue. Still, he has the best chances of walking away with it, and most probably will secure the jersey after today unless he basically does nothing.

The battle for Red rages on, and I just noticed that I have an edge against no 8120. My stats are higher than his, so if we tie in points the tie-breaker is on my side. I don't think I'll get a seven pointer today seeing Yuna's performance, but I can still fight for daily first place to put at least one user between me and no 8120 to close the gap even more.

Today will most probably decide the outcome of everything. Just like in the Tour de France, the last "stage" will be just for the winners to take a ride and celebrate their respective victories. Red might not be decided after today if I'm still in the fight for it, but at this point it doesn't entirely depend on just me anymore.
