Crashed and burned this week with an 8/15, but then, I've been travelling and doing things, so...
I am kicking myself over the flag one too. 🤦‍♂️

No movement on the scoreboard though.

I don't comprehend - I will now be on 198, @richardfm, starting at 178 could not have caught me anyway, even with a 15.
As it is, he'll be on 186 now after scoring 8. 🤷‍♂️
