Fully 36% of the entrants dropped out the first day! Of 2392 initially, there are 1529 left.

With about half the prize money of the latest SA Showvivor, this one drew a little under half the entrants.

Good luck to those who made it past day 1! I hope one of you takes it down.

remember... the whole point of this... survive and advance. rankings won't mean much later on, as there will only be 1 left standing in the end.

Although it's great to be up that high!!! Great pick.

I wasn't commenting so much on his ranking but just that it was DT's very own Viscount26. I don't think he commented in this thread so I was surprised to see his name on the list. I can't believe he actually picked a winner....

This might come as a shock to all of you, but I am out. I also hit 3/4 on that early pick 4 with real cash and I singled my contest pick, so It hurt pretty bad. I cought 3 pretty decent prices, including over 5-1 in a 4 horse field and a 9-1 shot.
