June WOTM - final week

Well, despite the best efforts of Wren, Oxy and myself Immacagain has prevailed, despite taking the foot off the pedal this last week or so.  Well done Immacagain, I look forward to seeing the virtual mug balancing on your avatar's head for the next month.

Also I think we should note the fantastic effort by DavidH to achieve 18 points just through tickers, one point at a time, and by the same token we should applaud Titus for his not so tardy 13 points including 11 tickers.

We've seen a fair bit of new talent rising up this month, not least Naff Laff reaching the upper quartile.  To all newer subbers, welcome.  And well done, whether you've scored 1 point or 13,it's a competitive field out there.

Anyway, here are the final scores for the month:


And here are the front pages and NiBs that were posted, along with hypelinks.  As usual the full list of tickers will appear in the chat room.
