Lagging on posting my additional stats, gonna blame FF13.

Updated user save stats, if you want to compare to how they were compared to the "point in time" comparison from previously, check the log site for Day 68 page 5. In this case we're looking at contests XXV vs XXIV proper, so Days 1 through 98 / no finals saves.

As previously, keep in mind that we had a lot more user activity this year relative to last which means most users have a decrease in saves due to faster rounds/decreased H3 and H4 opportunities. Though we have several users with YOY bumps, which are split into two tables: one for people who were around w/ regularity last year and increased their attendance, and the other for last year's lesser folks ramping up activity this year.

Ulti was ulti-mately the most improved saver among last year's regulars. On the "lesser attending last year" side, don't think there's any surprises with me followed by the FF8 stalwarts. So I guess last year I got 19 saves over the final 8 days, I think that checks out... also TomNook7's 63 really never did budge after Doomtrain went out.

And the dropoffs:

At the Day 68 comparison all of these were at 0 or single digits but burke, Steiner, linkhatesganon and RaidenGarai put in a lot more saves over the remainder of the contest to bump up their XXV totals. FBike did eventually show up for a token save in the finals, and MWC never returned...

Rounding things out with top savers from this year, and last year's for reference:

(Snuck above VI for the bronze medal this year, nice)

Bringing everything together to highlight the top cumulative-savers over the past two contests:

Perfectly-saving lefty showing a -15 so that's probably like a handicap in golf to beat? Though if you did beat it, that could also mean you were lacking in hitting your full potential last year, hmmm... in any case, lots of folks showing better than -15 and big positive callouts to Koala and guffguy. I'm pretty sure at least -10 of GMUN's were assisted by family interference, lol.

And lastly, everyone else who attained a minimum of 12 cumulative saves over the past two contests:

Special callout to PrinceKaro for being the one user to achieve an identical # of saves in both contests XXIV and XXV!!

I think I still have something else percolating but in the meantime, somebody on discord remind lefty that he posted the full stats (and new stats) lists at the top of page 8 last year andddd wow I thought we were still on page 7. Well there's still page 9 for the full character stats dump!! Including hot new leftystats listings...
