I'm just going to pretend I keep mucking up your score to annoy you. The real truth is I had corrected your score, then my computer crashed on me before I saved and I forgot to correct it again.

Regarding the week, that was just through tiredness of doing it all again.

I love this round. I am really good with faces. I'm certain of at least 8/10 here. I'm about 70% sure on one of the remaining 2 and there's not alot I can do with the other one as I've never seen that face in my puff. Certain of 8, possibly a 9. :thumsup2 I'm desperate for the results though as I want to know who the p***k is that is stopping me from a potential 10/10!!!
