October's Monster Mash 2007 had 24 cars and raised a total of $465, all donated to The Brest Cancer 3-Day!

Thanks to all who participated, and apologies for slow scoring on rallye night.

Results of corrections & protests:

* Since T26's BOO was not changed (to merely U) when T26 was moved at the eleventh hour,

P3 was worth 0 points (rather than -10 as the critique said).

* Several Coursemarkers were down: EE3 (granted to all who got CC2), DD13 (granted to all), B12.

TRC's wiki www.TheRallyeClub.org/wiki/Coursemarker_Guidelines now discusses concrete poles.

* Y6 granted to all cars. The GI's sentence under SIGNS about "all words following 'at'"

was limited to an FI (for concern about use in SIs); this broke the MASH gimmick.

* Tiebreaker 3: "Yield to bikes" sign was at FI 5 (as well as FI 20, Traverse B).

Scoring changes: One scoresheet was entered incorrectly, and the protest for EE3 was handled

incorrectly on rallye night. This resulted in rallye night declarations of awards that differ from these

final results (which will be used for TRC's 2007 Championship series). Anyone who wants their

correct pin should contact aTRC board member (and return any incorrect pin you have). We may

need to order more pins, but we will try to get you your well-earned award.

Favorite Gimmicks (with their number of votes from tiebreaker answers):
    WAKEFOREST versus WAKE FOREST (5)

    Definition of Intersection, TT27 (3)
    # instruction hidden in SUPP 20 (2)
    Alien (2)

The critique (Answer Key) had an error that explained why hand scoring by several teams differed
from the correct computer scoring: To total 1000 points, entering the CP is worth 580 points, not
600 as the critique said.  The critique was also unclear in several places, including use of the word
"it" in description of CP3; it should say "the phrase" in place of "it".

Computer-produced statistics are attached.  For example, the top line says CM "B 12" was
found by 1 of 2 first timers, 3 of 5 Beginners, 5 of 6 Experts, and 100% of the other classes.
That's 83% (20 of all 24 cars) overall.
 
Hope to see you at Deal or No Deal this Saturday.
