 | Ben Hunter sweet |
 | Kirk Bevins Awesome. Is there a table of %age maxes in their entire career? This would eliminate those losers who are on there on all the time...like me. |
 | Matt Hamer What I like most about this page is the notion that apterous is a "career". Oh, if only... |
 | Matt Morrison How much would you have to be paid per max to justify it as a job? I reckon if you were playing full time good players would be able to do £1/a max no problem. |
 | Charlie Reams Yeah I reckon so. Innis would be the top earner on at least 55k a year, and probably more with the extra time and incentive. Maybe one day... |
| Charlie Reams Chris becomes the second player to break the 100k barrier. |
 | Adam Gillard Charlie, I'll take £1,749 now and the remaining £100k in monthly instalments of £5k. Thanks. |
| Adam Gillard And of course the page updates as I submit that message. |
 | Michael Cullen Christ, Innis. |
| Adam Gillard 200,000! http://www.apterous.org/viewgame.php?game=702959&round=10187062#r10187062 |
 | Anthony Endsor Innis wins the one horse race for the first to reach 300,000 :) |
 | Robin M 100000? Wow, even that's quite sommat .... |
| David Barnard Lets all have a race to 1 million |
| Robin M Brain overload Barney! |
| Anthony Endsor I'm up for it. Only 992709 away from it, having become only the 273rd person ever to reach 7,291 :) |
 | George Ford lol David that's insane, not even at 20k yet |
 | Tracey Mills I think we need to get out more ;) |
| Robin M No Tracey, best if you stay indoors, safer for the populus! |
| Tracey Mills so you say |
| Robin M I do (I speak for the good of mankind!) |
| Matt Hamer The very first one millionth max round! https://www.apterous.org/viewgame.php?game=4127914&round=63453784#r63453784 |
 | Chris Hare Here's to you, David. |
| Anthony Endsor Congratulations Chris |
| Anthony Endsor Jack could well be the second to get there in time to come, and Zohaib is making rapid progress also. Apart from that, I think it'll be quite a few years before anyone else gets to a million. |
| Robin M How am I 5th? |
| Anthony Endsor Misspent youth Robin :))) |
| Robin M Could say the same of the four above me :) |
