Hi Graeme, I was wondering how many octochamps in the fifteen round format have scored less than 100 each game? (I originally posted this a couple of weeks ago, but there have been no replies. Sorry if my original wording was a bit abrupt.) 15. Here are all the 15-round octochamps whose maximum hea...

I think C4C ought to have HTTPS and an SSL certificate like Apterous and most other websites do nowadays. AFAIK Charlie controls the domain so only he can set that up.
