Londinium 5025

	Dalan		6 Saves Difficulty: Very Hard Score: 5198 Adjusted Score: 6238 Not only the highest adjusted score but the highest base score as well, and achieved in Very Hard difficulty. The only player to reach 5,000 in any difficulty and winner of Boudica's WOW award (no beads for this one, but I suspect praise like this from the master beats beads hands down).
	kach		4 Saves Difficulty: Normal Score: 4985 Adjusted Score: 4985 She tried to convince us she wasn't an expert player earlier on, but just a tad short of 5,000 in normal difficulty indicates otherwise. A perfect job guiding Aramann, who started as a rank novice and finished as quite an expert in her own right.
	ADJB		3 Saves Difficulty: Normal Score: 4665 Adjusted Score: 4665 very strong player from C4 online (although we didn't realise it when teams were determined). He benefitted from being in very strong company and grew strongly as a player.
	aramann		15 Saves Difficulty: Easy Score: 4680 Adjusted Score: 4212 What can you say about Aramann? She arrived a third of the way in, filling a vacant position in Team Londinium, and then proceeded to send in 15 entries of steadily increasing quality. The time she has put into this event is quite obvious, and it shows again that in these games, an investment in time is always repaid in results. Aramann tried out Very Easy and Normal before deciding that her best score could be made in Easy.

Samarobriva 3551

	Schwartzhorse		12 Saves Difficulty: Easy Score: 4398 Adjusted Score: 3958 Of all the players who took part in this contest, none gave more than Schwartzhorse, and her excellent score, and the strong showing of Team Samarobriva, are a reflection of her effort. She never left the trenches in the entire time, never stopped fighting. She had no expert player to help her, making her score all the more meritorious. Like Aramann, dipped her toes into the waters of Normal before settling on easy.
	cocora		5 Saves Difficulty: Easy Score:4362 Adjusted Score: 3926 Seemed to have lost his way but his two entries in the final days boosted his score significantly and sealed his team's second place.
	Philou51		6 Saves Difficulty: Easy Score: 3512 Adjusted Score: 3161 Like the rest of his team, a good solid performance built on determination.
	Vesontio		4 Saves Difficulty: Easy Score:3510 Adjusted Score: 3159 Started in normal but dropped back to easy. Another solid effort in a very hard working team.

Lindum 3205

	Herodotus		8 Saves Difficulty: Hard Score: 4357 Adjusted Score: 4793 Team Lindum perhaps drew the short straw with two novice players. Nonetheless the teamwork displayed between Herodotus and Lokki, especially early on as the map was sorted out, was truly inspirational. Had a nasty PC issue in the latter stages which held him back but still managed third overall.
	Lokki		4 Saves Difficulty: Hard Score: 4318 Adjusted Score: 4750 Again showed herself to be a very fine player indeed. This team were the early pacesetters, but were overtaken as Londinium got into stride, and finally by Samarobriva as well. Lindum died on its run a little but their teamwork was still exceptional.
	JamesG		Score: 1685 1 Save Difficulty: Normal Score: 1685 Adjusted Score: 1685 James is a student and his exams curtailed his participation in the event. Promising first effort but could not follow it up.
	OregonTaz		7 Saves Difficulty: Normal Score:1592 Adjusted Score: 1592 Played under some difficulties, but managed a creditable effort in normal. It's been great having you participate, Taz.

Antipolis 2360

	euroallain		3 Saves Difficulty: Very Hard Score:3665 Adjusted Score:4398 Standout performance in a team beset by problems. Took on the very hard map and came away with a very creditable effort indeed. Tried everything to rally Team Antipolis.
	grosielle		7 Saves Difficulty: Normal Score:2499 Adjusted Score: 2499 Started as a rank beginner, and made strong progress, always working hard for his team. Never stopped fighting.
	eoinstien		2 Saves Difficulty: Easy Score:1615 Adjusted Score: 1454 I'm not sure what went wrong, looked as thougth he could make a strong showing, but it didn't really happen. Thanks for participating anyway, Eoinstein.
	totoche123		1 Save Invalid date Adjusted score of 1091 (75% of lowest valid score which was 1454 by Eoinstein His entry would have been a decent one had it been valid (the save was in January 6). He had some issues with the game files that he could not resolve. Was active in the forum until the end.
