Tidbits - 13 October

0820
The sun is rising in a cloudless sky and all the flags and wind socks are hanging straight down. Let's see how much hoppin' & poppin' they can get done before the tramuntana has a chance to spoil the party!

They're starting with finishing the AE events, then will jump into CF. Cross your fingers, the flags outside are still hanging straight down!

I've got the CF results updated to reflect the throw-away round. Please note that lowest scores, which are tagged with a '+', are only examined through the completed round. If a team's lowest score appears in round 3 but isn't tagged with a '+', it's because someone else hasn't completed that round.

Sharon: the CF sequential draw is now posted along with the results. Thanks for pinging us on that!

Lucy overheard Alberto say that CF rotations will continue but sequential will not. Hmm. We'll check into that and pass along what we find out.

... and Barry McAuley reports: CF speed will finish round 4, and possibly do a round 5; then rotations will complete round 3, and then do round 4; and then sequential will likely only complete round 3.
