Current Leaderboard:
1) Draco1214 - 1547.86
2) Karma Hunter - 1547.77
3) DSRage - 1544.68
4) cyko - 1544.36
5) Kaxon - 1543.61

We had a new leader! Draco barely takes the lead from Karma Hunter, pushing KH out after only two days on top. Karma Hunter will have a chance to reclaim his crown though, since he only trails by 0.09 points, one of the closest races we've ever had. DSRage drops from second down to third today, and is narrowly trailed by cyko in fourth. Kaxon remains in fifth. The entire top five is now within 4.25 points of each other, so we could see some more swings coming up.
