Here is my latest "10-sum Competition" table. The competition is heating up some, with a few more participants! I think we need an MOTF advertising this competition, and also the "Winnable Challenge"!!!
1) I have taken all of the data from the "current" column in the "All-time" Table with "current streak > 0, and an "Idle Time" less than about 40 days. This is a much less exacting standard of "current" than Darkosi originally proposed. There is a real problem with the results being very sensitive to exactly when the data is collected -- one minute a player has a streak of 10 (or whatever), and the next minute it is zero! I am happy to use the results that players post!
2) I have kept most of the previous results! Some players are in more than once. One player (rws33315) is in both divisions.
3) Criticisms / comments / suggestions anyone???

Question....do we need to sign up to be in this? If so, please sign me up! I have been playing these games since I saw the post about the 10 sum challenge...though I have not made it through all of them yet. But perhaps I just don't have enough wins to get on the board.

@ FG 1) No, you don't have to sign up! 2) Your results need to be recent -- I only have one recent result for you, a streak of 12 in 8x2! Just one more result will get you into "division 2" (those who have played less than all 7, but more than 1, of the 10-sum games). WELCOME, and good luck!!

That makes it simple...I might do this too...but I don't expect to be near the top!

From Kaos on 29th February, who needs to be added to Division 1. "4,8,12,12,6,5,2 = 276,480 I got the 6x4 streak up to 6 but failed on the 7th. Look like Darkosi has been busy."

Here is my latest table, as of today (31/03/2016) for the 2016 "10-sum" competition. I had a lot of trouble with it, and it may still have errors. Again, I have sorted the "all-time best streaks chart" by "idle time", and then taken the "current streak" data that is less than 2 months old (not all that much data, actually, only 306 lines). I have been somewhat inconsistent, in that some players appear more than once, and others have had their not-so-good results replaced by their current (better) results. In the 2nd division, there is no penalty for the zeros!

>rws33315, well, yes, except that I collect the data for about the past 2 months, not just 2 weeks, inorder to have a few more results!! Many players have current zeros! This time I have only kept the player's best result! Several players have worse results now than previously!

Here is an update as of today, Sunday, 24 April 2016:

Kudos to Darkosi for winning his own competition. As a big 10-sum fan, I kept trying but could never get past the 864K total.
