In case it helps Wintermoot, I've tallied up my points here (hopefully correctly):

I came up with five more points for you, but the difference isn't big enough for me to redo everything and try to find the problem...not like you wouldn't win without the five points. Thanks for putting it together though, at least we know we're in the same general area.

Haha, Gerrick's and Moot's scores.

Well good job.  I guess I didn't do as well as I thought I was doing.

Yay! Some random thoughts I have:

Looks like farming Laurentuses helped quite a bit, I'd be roughly tied with Wintermoot had I not. I had my main nation and two puppets working on that in New Hyperion, though only 2 of the 7 cards were natural finds.

Was rather fun trying to repeatedly outbid people, though now that it's over I kinda feel bad about it... didn't realize I had such a far lead (in fact, I thought I was far behind other people at some points).

Tested out the Firefox containers (different tabs in same window, with same extensions, history, bookmarks, etc., but different cookies) for this event, rather than making Chrome profiles like I used to. Worked quite well, though running six of them at once did slow down my computer considerably.

Hyperians were far more interested in getting their commoner cards than Wintreans. (I did get an offer from a Wintrean other than myself [and a quid pro quo trade with Hydra], but they put up a 0.05 buy offer and I didn't check before clicking it, lol. Also junked one instead of clicking "sell" to a Hyperian by accident.)

But the real questions: did I get 81 points from my own cards, or 108?

Somewhat related, I was #18 on the NS leaderboard for most cards. Did anyone else place on a leaderboard?

I did better than I was expecting. Especially since I employed no puppets in my card collecting on account of being too lazy to have puppets.

Also there was a leaderboard? Where?

Right here!

I thought of reviving some old puppets to work with the ones I've kept going, but by the time I had time to dedicate to the card game there was only a few hours left and it just wasn't worth it. As it is, most of the effort I spent on the game was yesterday morning...glad it counted for something, at least.

How much money did we all have at our peak? I made 7 by selling an ultra rare one, which contributed to my final tally of 9.

I decided not to take part, but instead to gather all NH cards I could find.

Well I definitely did good considering my lack of puppet nations.

I'm actually surprised I didn't make the board since I had like 15 puppets running and collecting.

It was a fun event though, and I made some new regional friends in the process.  So it was still worth it.
