The agony.

Technically, I’ve been updating the leaderboard every day. I have just been uncharacteristically quiet about it for a lover of yap. But it is updated and here is a post about it.

Two of the most decorated Fantasy Olympians, Pope Brian of Barrettania and Supreme Tony Flags of Tony Flagistan, find themselves in silver and bronze position currently. Curiously, 29th place President Alice also claims to hail from Barrettania, and I am certainly interested to learn more about the religious versus political governing systems of this nation as I’m sure we all are.

Married rulers King FranktheGoatRat of ImaginationLand and Her Chillness Ramba Snowpants the First of Tundrambaland find themselves in a tie for 5th today, along with perennial Fantasy Olympics hopeful The Great Helmsman, First Citizen, and Comptroller for Life Rossem Tossem of Vichy Groganzola. One hopes the Groganzolans will be able to unite in winter success after the post-Summer Olympics revolution in which they must have overthrown their corporate overlords.

This is day six of the Fantasy Olympics, and as usual I, like many of those who have been here for now seven Olympic games, have started to wonder: is it possible to be good at this game?

Yes, that’s correct. Some of you have been playing Fantasy Olympics since 2014. That’s 12 years. Some measure their lives in coffee spoons, we measure in olympiads.
