Yesterday's Day 1a attracted 193 players, and that figure was already surpassed with Day 1c barely half a level old. Now with almost two levels completed, the number stands at 268, with 259 players already remaining. This is close to doubling the total figure for yesterday's two flights in a single flight.
All that remains to be seen is whether the total for Day 1c can surpass 300. We will just have to wait and see!
