Battle Rejoined
When we left off at the end of Level 8 last night, the starting field of 716 players had been reduced to 443. The top five counts at the end of the day yesterday are some names that might be familiar to you: David Williams (230,900); Vanessa Selbst (214,200); Denmark's Lars Bonding (177,100); Matt Woodward (165,500); and Brazilian Firas Massouh (157,000).
Today the schedule slows down somewhat, with levels increasing in length from 60 minutes to 75 minutes. It will make for a slightly shorter day, with only six levels played as opposed to yesterday's eight.
The action resumes just after noon local time, in about twenty minutes. See you then!
