    2018 Tour de Primes begins February 1st!
    Our annual Tour de Primes challenge begins in a little over one day from now, and runs for the entire month of February. Unlike other challenges, you don't get a trophy just for participating -- you have to actually find primes to win something!As with last year, we will be awarding special "jersey badges" to the winners in four different categories. This year, we're also offering special badges that are available to anyone who finds an eligible prime!Come join us in February. More information about Tour de Primes can be found here.

    Challenge me, or correct me, but don't ask me to die quietly.

    Scott Brown is back as sole possessor of the yellow jersey, after he had to share it with Vaughan earlier today.
    Vaughan still leads comfortably in the rankings for the red jersey, having scored a prime worth 10 times more tahn number two.
    That high score also proved vital in the rankings for the green jersey, where Vaughan is also #1 due to the score of his two found primes so far.

    He sure is! The green and red jersey are his at the moment and he is still in 2nd place for the yellow jersey, already having found four primes in five days.

    dthonon is doing a bid for the yellow jersey it seems. You still lead in the red and green jersey rankings though.
