August 3, 2007 - Week 10 of Starvation
The results are posted at www.bigfatloserguy.com/race.html.
For the past 6 weeks, the field has been staring at the same lead dog. Sneezed Rims In still has a comfortable lead over Mega Unicaramel and Aha Plumbing. The lead is so big, I'm sure he can start eating cheesecake again. Please don't forget to buy Sneezed Rims In a round during the company picnic, in recognition of his giant lead. Luckily for some, you can't get a score lower than 0, even though Danish As I, Darn Non Coed, and Lotion Randy keep trying. For a perspective on how things are going, here are some random statistics from the contest so far:
