All rise for our national anthem.

And one last time, resurrecting this from last year: the finals (top savers) squad in all their glory:



Later to the party but voltch and lefty are back in their rightful place as the "Twin Stars" of Save My hosting. And voltch always strikes me as a good natured guy and lefty not as much, so they line up well ;)

Evillordexdeath as Muller and FBike1 gets the plum Hilda spot as we're dead in the water without the two of them on Round 96 (though really, this was my reaction to seeing them trading for LotGH on that day - minus the Katerose)

Xeybozn is Kesler, who ended up as one of my favourite characters, and with his TTGL saving beforehand, a favourite saver!

Eddv as Bittenfeld is still the best match.

WhiteLens coming out of nowhere to drop 11 saves on LotGH in the finals... who else but the silent admiral.

It's a crazy contest when you think about it, even though SMFFFC is shaping up to be more active than ever, SMFAS was down a bit from last year. 4th hour save opportunities re-emerged in the top 20 which gave some more breathing room for trades. 2 steady traders could reliably get you to the top 10, 3 likely to the top 5. But the last few days always seem to come down to the margins and the desperation of the right users logging in and saving at the right time.

No way we should've survived Round 96 - I even had a screencap-laden elimination post ready to go - only for Evillordexdeath and brand new out-of-nowhere additions of FBike and Socko, +5 new saves between the three of them, and still just to force a 12-12 deadlock and the good fortune of Shonen_Bat getting the last save in before Monogatari did. Sometimes surviving just one more day really makes all the difference, I guess.

As far as next year goes, debating whether to abandon the contest entirely, which is probably for the best since I get way too wrapped up in the competition. But I also feel like I owe people for their support... so maybe just tapping back in somewhere in the endgame to give a bit of support to something that's left, or really trying to take things casually and just throwing in saves here or there, no trading, no actively scanning for rounds when they go up... I guess we'll see where things are 9-10 months from now.

I do believe Kaguya wins next year, so long as the duo of Ark and handsomeboy are back & backing it, with or without that 3rd season airing. If the 3rd place show keeps winning in the following year, that'd be funny...

And between now and then, I really need to get to work on the anime queue, which is basically in the same state as it was last year... these shows are currently on my hard drive (other than LotGH currently about 2/3 done the rewatch), alphabetical order, all never before watched except Monster:

A Place Further Than The Universe
Baccano
Ergo Proxy
Girls' Last Tour
Puella Magi Madoka Magica
Monster
Steins;Gate

Considering all of them were probably there as well at this time last year, well.... I won't hold my breath. But ideally some progress is made between now and then. My biggest fear is that I'll love Steins;Gate and then getting it the win will become my new contest obsession, hahaha...

Anyways, thanks again to all the LotGH savers for the support. And thank you voltch, for running this as always!!
