July WOTM competition - week 1

After one week we have a narrow field, with yours truly just at the top of the leader board but with Benvoleo, NaffLaff and YaBasta all nipping at my ankles.  Interestingly the Newsbiscuit Editorial Team are in the running too, but ultimately so far this month it is all up for grabs.  Contrast this month with the end of week 1 last month where Immacagain was on 18 points and the field was much larger mainly thanks to a huge influx of tickers.

So far this month the ticker list has been muted, but who knows, perhaps there will be another surge next week?
