Wow - Thrilled that I won a round and have appeared once again on the season podium with a Silver Medal. Hooray for me.   It's been a long time since I've seen a podium finish in GTP. Congratulations to Petespockets55 for the season win. Well played indeed.  Quote: Rough weeks, which is why there will be a long hiatus before Season 92. Let's show some collective support for our tremendous host jbuck. I say take a long break jbuck and recharge your GTP batteries. You do a tremendous job hosting this greatest of all internet coin games for our pleasure. Bring on season 92 when you are ready. Thank you @jbuck for what you do for all of us.

Separate reply to comment on jbuck kind acknowledgement of my longevity in this best of internet coin game. Quote: he is the first and only CCF player to pass 5000 cumulative points! I've obviously made a lot of guesses to get here ... and I think my consecutive round guess streak without a round missed is likely a huge number ... maybe over 600?. I'm the Cal Ripken of GTP.  But I say to all of you that what keeps me coming back is your participation and involvement. Without you there would be no GTP. So, I ask that you keep supporting this best of all internet coin games with your active participation- and send deserved appreciation to our tremendous host jbuck. See you in S92 - whenever that happens.

3 wins in a season. Well done Pete. Nick, you're the man, keep it up. Of course, thank you jbuck. Don't forget about the JB this summer. ttkoo, you got lucky, I was in the ballpark too. Good job catching up. Might not be so lucky next round.  . Do you have a coin in to guess? I don't. Have a great summer folks.

Quote: I've obviously made a lot of guesses to get here ... and I think my consecutive round guess streak without a round missed is likely a huge number ... maybe over 600?. I would have to dig deeper to find rounds, but you have played 73 consecutive seasons, which would be 730 total rounds if none have been missed. A full season earns you 50 points minimum, and none of yours are below that, so it bodes well for you! I need to look at all the tables to cofirm... Meanwhile, only one other person has played more total seasons—Murty, at 78. But many were not full seasons as they are below 50 points. He played in 72 consecutive seasons and only one round in the 73rd before taking a break. So at 73 consecutive full seasons, you are now alone in first place having the most consecutive seasons.

I have now confirmed that nickelsearcher started playing GTP in Season 19, Round 1 and has provided a guess for every single round since.

I want to start out by first thanking JBuck. You put a lot of time into this game and we are all having fun thanks to you. Remember to go easy on yourself when things go askew. There's lots more going on in your universe we will never be able to fathom. Be kind to our friend JBuck.  Thanks for the well wishes everyone. It was a close one for sure at the end. I forgot about the tiebreakers and couldn't figure out how I got to 100 points. Congratulations to Nickelsearcher for the "Cal Ripken" streak of consecutive rounds and total points. Absolutely amazing how long you've been at it. This one had extra sentimental meaning and I'm going to dedicate it to Olivia. Nope, she's not 91. (Miss you girl.) See everybody at the next round and let's take the time to tune up our crystal balls. Have a great summer and let's hope all hurricanes this year veer out into the Atlantic.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Let's also give you the credit for playing a proxy guess on my request on several occasions when I was away on long vacations. I'll keep playing this best of all internet coin games for as long as jbuck feels like hosting. It's like a partnership at this point.
