Howdy,

Here are the results of the Christmas Advent Calendar, in an event of two people having the same scores, the person who answered the question firstly will be second/third, etc. Probably not the best way to do this, but there simply can't be two joint-first or second places.

First Place with 72 Points;
Alaklondewen

Second Place with 69 Points;
Karli

Third Place with 69 Points;
Sheepprobe

Fourth Place with 67 Points;
Maraderkholm

Fifth Place with 65 Points;
Tracie

Had over 20 participants throughout the twenty days, congratulations to our top five! Your knowledge (https://www.google.co.uk/) is very good! Send me a message in game for your rewards, Karli and Sheepprobe.
