Big Sunday Push announced

We’re announcing another installment of the popular Big Sunday Push. We award this prize to the contestant who makes the biggest cumulative improvement to the top score over the course of Sunday (midnight to midnight EST). See the “Contributions by Day” section of the Statistics page for standings. Be sure to enter your name exactly the same for all your entries so we will group them together. The winner will join previous pushers Jan Langer, Niilo Sirola, and Christian Ylämäki in the Hall of Fame.

According to our Frappr, we have contestants from all over the world. Aren’t any of our 136 participants so far from South America?
