Re: 2018-19 Groger Ranks Awards
With roughly a week left to vote in this poll, I've decided to put up a shill post. John John is an extremely good player. He has put up incredible stats throughout the season.

Re: Groger Ranks 2018-19

Re: Specific Question Discussion
Could I please see the tossup on "scientists," as well as, the bonuses on "toruses" and "Pamuk?" Also, round 5 had a Jesus resurrection bonus followed shortly by resurrection in mythology tossup. Both were well written but should probably be in different rounds.
