Sorry to be a pain, but are the numbers averages?

I'd say there are averages, Winged_Wolf. Even yesterday that would have been less than the combined total. Our average right now is 2932 (Derbyshire).

Yes the numbers are averages, and the number in parantheses is the number of participants in each region. :-)

lol! For a moment I thought you were excluding us slow-coaches from the line-up to keep it to yours and Sniglet's monster totals ;-) how on earth do you do it? I find NaNo each year to be like jumping into cold water. You psyche yourself up for it for days, but no matter how prepared you think you are for the shock, it always takes time to acclimatise to the temperature, start breathing properly and get swimming!

Now there's a thought... unfortunately I've stopped pretty much and won't have time for any more before the Write -In tomorrow so I'm glad I got a good start.

I may have missed a post. Is this the average taken by combining the number of participants and number of words? Or do the numbers in brackets indicate particular people who have taken up a challenge?

Yeah, sorry Darlo, I had a bad writing day Tuesday, and once we'd got the kids sorted, gone to speech therapy, picked Kayleigh up from school, got dinner sorted, I just gave up all hope of writing. I'm working on it though, so I hope we'll be doing a bit better for tonight! I'm going to write like a maniac today. :)

Hiya,

The score board is now automated and can be found here:

http://www.annelyle.com/write/scoreboard.php

This board is updated every morning using the nanowrimo Word Count API, so will be more accurate than the one I did every other day.

I'm still checking to make sure that everyone is updating at least once a week, but I haven't had a chance to do that for the 12th yet. As soon as I do I'll arrange to have the adjustments made and post to let people know who's been removed. :)
