Top250: RiF wins $10,000
With a convincing wire-to-wire win, RiF was able to secure the top position in the May Top 250 $100,000 Promo - leaving April winner DuneBuggy with 'only' second place.
1 RiF
118 498 $10,000 2 85 496 $6,000
After a remarkable 162,912 StrategyPoints in April, DuneBuggy dropped a gear, and thus the way was clear for RiF,
who gathered almost 4,000 SP per day in all of May! Splendid achievements for both players, because already for last month, DuneBuggy and RiF were ranked 1st and 3rd.
But something hasn't changed from May though: So far, no player was able to win the promo more than once during the year of the 2008 Olympics.

kingpowl also had a strong month - after the first third he wasn't even in the Top 10, and then he was at fifth place at halftime, he kept up his speed and grabbed the third place along with $4,000.
A final spurt also came from our 'eternal bridesmaid' BlackMember mStar991. At the end of the day, he even finished fourth. Same with Andimat, who wasn't in the Top 10 either in the previous May 25th update. But besides the win in the Titan Races (we reported), he also finished 6th, earning him another $3,000.
Leite13 and annelies also snuck up at the last minute. With StarsAbove, coach Shagg and praios, we have another three BlackMembers in the Top 10!

$100,000 - also in June
So far, we have dealt out $440,000 to our top players in 2008 via our Top promotions. But of course, it is still running in June with another $100,000 for the Top 250. So we'll definitely break the $500,000 mark!
