Here are some scores. I'm not sure how correct they are, but this is to the best of my knowledge.

Sigyn: 55

JP: 53

Gorgon: 47

Kije: 46

42: 40

Skar: 39

Jeffe: 34 (You turned in points for the book, so points were deducted.)

Fuzzy: 32

SE: 23

Ms Fish: 17

Outcast: 10

Dr. P: 9

Archon: 8

TheWarriorLives: 4

New prize point cost updated. But for JP and Sigyn I will allow you two to use your points to get a book from Card or Prachett since you had the 50 points needed from before I changed the rules. As well there is a new rule.

When you are 20 points away from the "prize point total" the amount of points you receive will start to degrade. So say I give someone 4 points for a definition, and they're at 87. Well, those 4 points are now 2 points. This also depends on how awesome your post is in relation to my thought process at the current moment.

That's all for now folks. Keep posting.
