 How's everybody doing? What's everybody working on? Well, I'm just getting started. It's been a busy work day for me. So now I get to do some connecting. My connecting just started. I finally made some points. Oh, awesome. Hey, I know one point. I don't I didn't look at how many I have. I'm at zero. I haven't done any yet. Hi, John. I understand that, Azure. You've been very busy. Oh, we had at four o'clock, so we just we told everybody that they needed to go away and their team needed to pick a team yell because we have we already have Biscuits for the Appalachian team. And we have we have Fibonacci. Who's got Fibonacci? Oh, that was Greg's. Catchphrase now. Okay. And then there was somebody else that had another one, which I'm drawing a blank on. I apologize. So share share your team yells in the chat. And then when we get to your team, we can we'll use that the tree nuts. Hell, I had a tight race going. Let me go look and see what the final outcome is if you guys. We had it was between squirrel peanuts and go nuts. And the squirrel, the squirrel squeak past go nuts, like in just the last few minutes. So I think we're going to go with squirrel for the for the tree nuts. My team hasn't talked about it yet. Maybe not. We were too busy creating profiles. Oh, okay. So not everybody's gonna have that. But it's okay. I vote for bratwurst or germany genies. This looks like. Mid-Atlantic has crab cakes. And he's like all of Garth for a team at least. So I'm sorry. I'm dead interrupting now. I'm going to sit back. You guys do your thing. I love it. Northwest terrors could be cheese curds. Somebody let the dogs out in the chat. Is it bad we're all loopy already? No, it's never bad. Yeah, they put you in your place. Stick with your biscuit, Sandy. Did you have good breadsticks at Olive Garden? You have to admit that. Unlimited breads. Oh, oh, Chris is coming in. Here we go. We've rolled him into existence. Somebody said his name three times. Very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very low. Yes. Yes. That's how it works. So where do you stand on the Olive Garden conversation? I can't say that in mixed company right now because this is a G rated chair. Olive Garden thing. Well, let's just say it has a wine common with the landfill. Oh, I'm still going to troll you on Discord later, Chris. So we have a secret word or the prize word for... Is this not Olive Garden? That everybody should type in to the chat so that they can be in for the drawing. And it's participate. Very appropriate. Darren, you're fast. Spelling does count. How did you do that? Hey, can I say... Can I set up a full hand? How did you access the chat when you're on our side? Lots of participate flying by. They are participating. They are. They are.

If you want to share your selfie, which we would love to see those photos of y'all. And then also how you can spread the word about wiki tree during the marathon. So those posts are all linked down in the description of the video. Brian wants me to be in charge of math. No, no, you don't want to be in charge of math. No. No, no, I'm taking over math on this one. I'm the one doing math. Yeah, let's go ahead and do some stats. Yeah, that's all right. To the bottom of a total of 30, 17 participating in this month's connectathon. Congratulations, everybody. So far, even if you don't have that many edits, every edit, every connection is important. So let's start at the bottom. We have the buy-in tree, which again, that is our Indian team, correct? Or is that a Brazilian team? Yeah, it's India. And I was going to go for the fifth person each team, but since we don't have five people in this team, it's okay. I'm going to go to the bottom and that is going to be Raj to do. Hopefully I'm pronouncing these as accurately as possible. And Raj has, is that two? I'm looking at the very far right number. Is that the number of conditions? Yeah, that's right. Okay. And also in second place, so two. The smoking snakes, which is the Brazilian team. The second place person here would be Marcia Sebengem and Bonnet, and they have two. The musty thusies only has one person participating right now. That is Richard L. Devlin, and he has 22 all by himself. I'm certainly going to give you a high, what's the, the term, the the, trying to think of the normalize score. The normalize score would be high for that team because of him. Team Massachusetts in 34th place. The lowest person there is Chip P. White Jr. with five connections, contributions. And then Southwest Sunshineers. Now we can start to select some people from here. Russ J. Gunther, the captain, is in fifth place on that team and has two. Moving up to my favorite name team now, the French fries. Guilame, Albacini. Is fifth on that team. Guame. Guillaume. Guillaume. Guillaume. Guillaume. Guillaume. Guillaume. And they have a touch of English. I don't speak French, but that's like the only word I know. Like Guillaume. Guillaume. Guillaume. Guillaume. It's the equivalent of William in English. Oh, okay. And then yeah, they have eight contributions there. Good job. Allish is second place on team Austria. So he has three contributions so far. Good job there, Allish. All things considered. Probably has a lot of other things going on. Fifth place person on little team of the prairie is Catherine E. Wensel. Middleton with one contribution. Up to 29th place, team Lecaim has Celia March with three contributions. Then Twisted Thistles, the fifth place person is Terry de Dozier, mega-medical, aka Hill, with 17 contributions. Super Ozzie Genies, fifth place person is Barbara A. McHillary with 22. Okay, the, oh, here we go. The Irish Chanche. I think I got that right. Karen E. Haney, the captain, has 23 contributions.

The Wizards of Oz, number five is Caroline Ball, aka on the level of the sub-pierre, Przegalegovsky, also known as Ball19346, which is a lot better to pronounce. And that is 24 contributions. Actually, Claire is also tied at 24. So there's two people there, the same. Team Virginia, fifth is Mary A. Gilkerson-Ghoulish with 32 contributions. Great job. The 22nd team is the Western Red Cedars, Azure's team, right? Yay, no Cedars. Anyway, so Cindy K. Stevens is a fifth with 32 contributions. D. Nordic Noir, fifth is Mark D. Williams, DNA, with 39 contributions. The Flying Dutchman, I want to say joke, but it's probably not pronounced that way. Is it Yoke? Yoke Van Vinedal with 40 contributions.

Bolin is the fifth place person with 25 contributions. It's great to see that one. South African Spring Box, their fifth place person at the bottom is Suzanna Hendrina Elisa Devron and Closet at five contributions. When you count how high up they are, with only five faces. Well, look at number one. They got 356 points all by themselves. Yeah, that's amazing. Yep. The Kiwi Crew, number five is Matt D. McNabb with 30 contributions. You can see there's a similarity in the number. That's about the 30s and 40s. Cornbreadcatchers, Sheila D. Tidwell with 43 contributions. Here's Greg's team and Chris's team. And Chris is not in the team. It's Icarusso, Icarumba, with 28 contributions. Not all of them. I'm a 12-place team. Good job. Here's my team. Southern Super Sweepers.

All you have to do is send an e-mail to aowyn at wikitree.com, and she'll get you set up for your prize. Do we know what team Jody's on? We don't. I thought she used to be on the show. I can't remember where she is this time or not. Let me go look. Carry on. I'll go look. Okay. All right. Carry on. Do a control find and the team search for Jody. The other winner is from the random participant and the marathon. And here we go. All right. The random marathon winner, Kirby from your team. Is she on my team? Western Red Cedars.

Congratulations. Yeah. Jody is a treatment. Sorry. Oh, Jody is a treatment. Okay. Great. It's so fun to see people win. I just love it. Yeah. So do we have any questions from the chat that we need to go over or anything? John said he added an English profile that ended in Quebec. Wow. That's cool. So the last name was Quebec? I'm thinking that the ancestry went from England to Quebec. Oh, sorry. I misunderstood you. But there are definitely English people and Quebec people. I didn't actually check to see if there's Quebec as a surname yet. I went to school with a girl who her last name was Irish. And I went to school with somebody who was like Ireland or around that. Yeah. Yeah. I made a profile for someone. America Island. Oh, wow. That was your name. America Island. No. Oh, my gosh. Ireland? Yeah. Ireland. The family name was Ireland. And the first name was America. Oh, honey. There's a town in Tennessee named Quebec. Quebec, Tennessee. That's like Paris, Texas. Yep. Is that in Eastern Tennessee? I don't, I'm not familiar with that one. I'm not exactly sure where in Tennessee it is, but I once came across it was on trivia. They used to live in Tennessee. Oh, okay. I did see it as a Nashville. That's my home away from home. Nice. Yeah. Quebec sounds like something over by Spardo. You know, it sounds like White County or something. Oh, you're still right. White County. You got it. What? Did I land right on it? It's White County. No idea. I was just rolling there. There's not even five counties to choose from. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. And there's a Sparta, White County, Tennessee area. There's a Finland, Minnesota. And like John was saying, there's an Iowa, Wisconsin. Iowa County, Wisconsin. There's not actually a municipality called Iowa, but the county is. I thought that the Berlin and Lebanon in New Hampshire. So there you go. We have a Berlin and a New Berlin. On Sunday, I'll be driving through Ontario, Oregon. But not flying into Ontario, California. No. Here's a much better airport than LAX. Yeah. There's a Calis, Minnesota. So you could say this week, Calis finally frozen over. You mean Hill, Michigan? Yeah, Hill, Michigan, yeah. Oh yeah, it definitely froze over. And then the Detroit Lions won their first playoff game in 30 years. Yeah. 34 years? 33 years. Yep. Stephen said there's a place in Japan called USA so they could legally put made in the USA. USA. I need a fact check on that. We have Oregon, Minnesota and Oregon, Illinois. Yeah. There's Oregon, Wisconsin too. Yeah. There's a Cairo, Illinois, as in Egypt, you know, Cairo, Egypt. I live in Salem. And people are like, oh, which one? No, that's the one down in Massachusetts. It's your D, she said, like one ago. Has there been a county in mind ahead, like every town is a capital city from somewhere out of the country? That sounds familiar. I think you're right. You're something close to that. Did you know that Bismarck, North Dakota is the only state capital named for a foreign leader? Yeah. The Bismarck was the chancellor of Germany during the German Empire. Wow. Didn't know that. And North Dakota named it for him or the people who inhabited the area. So I don't know. I was like to throw that little bit of trivia out there. Yeah. Definitely. Yeah. Roman every state. D says her husband's from Cairo, Illinois. And it's pronounced Cairo, not Cairo. I know. I know. I left. I was just trying to make it relatable. But yeah. I can't remember D exactly where it is, but I believe you're down, I'm going to say south of Joliet. But I'd have to look it up. Joliet, huh? With an O. Yeah, Joliet. Like Joliet Jake from the Blues Brothers. Yes, exactly. Yep. And you could drive by the prison that they break out of. Yep. I'm sure Joliet gets a lot of those brothers. South of there is Bloomington, but not Indiana, Bloomington, Illinois. There's actually only Rome in 13 out of the 50 states. I just Googled it. Joliet went in Rome. Hey, that's how I model. Oops, wrong one. I bet there's a Washington in every day. Cairo. Oh yeah. There's definitely, there's like 13 municipalities named Washington just in Wisconsin alone. Yeah. Plus a Washington Island. Can you watch? Such a U.S. based chest. I'll just, I don't know if you want to listen to that. Yes. You're welcome to share Portland, Oregon was named after Portland, Maine, and it could have been Boston, Oregon because it was. Two of the founders were from Portland in Boston. Would they've still pronounced it Baston? I would have called it Boston. There's a bunch of places naturally that have stolen their names from European cities. That's interesting. The Havel, Florida that was named after Havel, Massachusetts. Well, I thought people from Havel went to Havel, Florida. There's actually a lot of towns here. Fitchburg is a popular one over here. Well, yeah, the most popular one, Springfield. Is the mighty oaks going to be scones? Scones. All right, y'all. Are we winding down? Let's do some connecting, y'all. Okay, we'll see y'all in the three and a half hours. Three and a half hours or just more than three and a half hours.
