May WOTM week 2



A real battle is brewing at the top of the table in this second week, with Wrenfoe flexing his comic mustles to good effect.  However harrypalmer isn't taking this sitting down and is only a few, well four, points behind.  To be fair Deceangli, SimonJJames and Cinquecento are pushing strong too.

Something else to look at, though, is the tickers.  I think we should have a ticker writer of the month for this art form.  Because tickers only accrue 1 point each time, the dedicated ticker writers are always going to struggle up the league table.  Currently Cinquecento has had 7 tickers published this month - that's pretty impressive.  However I notice that DavidH andDominic_mcg are both scoring 6 tickers each, so there's a bit of an unofficial battle going on there too.
And here are the FPs and NiBs for the first two weeks:
Bobski
Chrisf
Cinquecento
Deceangli
Gerontious
harrypalmer
Midfield Diamond
Oxbridge
Throngsman
Underconstruction
Wrenfoe
YaBasta
