[The Round #1 Spreadsheet can be found here.](https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AlBZxpXinYkCdG9tNHZKNWVrRloyWk5PSmxZWFRDTGc&hl=en&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com#gid=0) Check back after Round #1 has concluded for the Round #1 point totals and your Round #2 entry form.

**(Edit)**[ I've created a separate spreadsheet to keep track of scoring here.](https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AlBZxpXinYkCdEliRmpoUzNDSGhXQ1cxd2Z1WTdPZHc&hl=en&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com#gid=0) It's pretty straight forward and all automatic. Pretty nifty if I do say so myself. I'll update this sheet after each series concludes so you can see how you're progressing.
