I still had Brazil at -2 in the spreadsheet (while they are now at
-1), so the correct standings are:

> > +4 Binder Dundat
> > +1 Real Mardin
> >  0 Google Beta User
> > -1 (Simulations Collective)
> > -1 Abubakr
> > -1 anders t
> > -1 Jesus Petry
-2 Jesper Lauridsen
-2 Mark V.
> > -2 MH
> > -2 milivella
> > -3 Clément
-3 Joachim Parsch
> > -4 El Kot
-5 Futbolmetrix
-5 Mark
> > -9 Juan Vazquez

Sorry.
