    I'm compiling the data right now. If you haven't submitted you have probably around a half an hour to get me your answers, but I'm not promising anything because the deadline was nearly two hours ago.

    Dang, my estimate was good. I just finished putting everyone's answers in so I won't be accepting any more submissions. Results to come shortly.

    I think I was less than a minute late. That would make me the first loser.

    I knew I should have done these before the wife went to bed. A preemptive congrats to Dr. Vandaley. You're #9!

    EDIT: or not preemptive. I'm slow. Still congrats.

    I thought for sure dropping 10 points on one questions would kill me in a Cup Final.

    Congrats on winning the BIG prize, though!

    Congrats to the winner of the Golden Bleat. The Golden Bleat award is given to the player with the most total points over the course of the tournament.

    This year the Golden Bleat winner is also our Champion. Congratulations again to ElasticNorseman, winner of the 2010 FLEAFA WC Golden Bleat.

    The Silver Bleat goes to Cowtown and the Bronze Bleat to our runner-up, ShoelessMan.

    For winning more rounds than any other player Celt1997 has been awarded the Golden Hoof. Celt1997 led the flock twice during this tournament.

    There is an eight way tie for the Silver Hoof, between ElasticNorseman, cowtown, ShoelessMan, EdTheRed, petezuke17, Sheepulator, Captain Splarg, and Aaron d. They will all share the award.

    And everyone else shares the Bronze Hoof for winning no weeks. Hey, it's still third place! :D

    The FLEAFA Fair Play Trophy goes to the most dedicated Sheep player. This player has participated every week during the tournament. And out of the 29 players that have showed up every week this player has continued to compete despite scoring the least number of points out of those 29. Congrats to tigerdave! A true follower of the flock.


    PS - Hamburgler03 could have easily had the Bronze Bleat if he hadn't decided to tank the final round. :p
